    Tanaka partially torn UCL; out minimum of 6 weeks

    There's conflicting info out there, was he placed on the DL before the MRI? Is this normal?

    NY signs Brian McCann to a 5/$85M deal

    How much of a subsidy? Is he worth 14m per year? The general opinion seems to be that it's only a matter of time before he starts hitting, so that should be a factor in determining his worth. As Pendelton stated "he's not a .220 hitter."

    Yankees acquire Brandon McCarthy from DBacks

    Nuno gave up 13 HR is 50 innings at YS. A greater GB rate is most welcome.

    What Should NY Do With David Robertson This Offseason?

    I'm also happy with either offer, but I don't think 3/30 will get it done, especially if statistically he continues to improve from the Dunn HR game. I could see some team offering him 4/40. maybe 4/44.       I don't like it either, but the market dictates the price, and Robertson as a closer is...

    Derek Jeter: Countdown to Retirement

      You have a point, but Ramirez statistically is the best SS so far this season in the AL and by a wide margin.    So will Jeter get the start?

    Derek Jeter: Countdown to Retirement

    A.Ramirez is on pace to have a 7-8 WAR season and he trails Jeter.  :blink:

    Mark Teixeira

    So a real backup 1st baseman is warranted if he will be limited moving forward. What's the plan here? Wait for Cervelli?

    Sabathia done for 2014: knee surgery

    Can someone shed some light on "degenerative changes in knee?" What's the prognosis?

    Beltran: Elbow MRI

    These are the players who were healthy at the start of the season, but are on the DL, or were there.     Robertson (closer) Kelley (8th inning guy)   Sabathia (SP) Pineda (SP) Nova (SP)   Cervelli (Backup Catcher) Tex (1st Baseman) Beltran (RF)     Ouch! From Closer to SP to Starting 1st baseman...

    Kelley sent to the DL.    "Reliever Shawn Kelley has been placed on the disabled list with a strained lumbar spine, and outfielder Zoilo Almonte has been recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre."  ...

    Sabathia done for 2014: knee surgery

    A 3 billion dollar team and they don’t even have replacement level pitchers at hand. How the heck do the Braves do it when they’re also usually atop their division?

    Yankees to retire Joe Torre's number

    The Steinbrenners like their dad are disciplinarians, and like their dad they’re also eventually forgiving.  Bernie received approximately $40 million for the last 4 years of his contact. 40 million for a cumulative (-.1) WAR.  My point is his grievance against the Yankees was unjustifiable and...

    The all-Joe-Girardi-all-the-time Thread

    I like Girardi, although like some fans I'm also frustrated with him at times. I think his decisions are not entirely his, but part of the Yankees thinking, which is open to debate. Cashman said this a few days ago “You want to give veterans ample time to work through the ups and downs of a...

    NY signs Brian McCann to a 5/$85M deal

        He’s struggling against right handed pitchers, which is unusual, considering how well he’s hit against them throughout his career.   2014 vs. Left         .306        .359        .528        .887 vs. Right       .171        .194        .271        .465   Career vs. Left          .261       ...

      Two respected members of the Yankees organization have called him out.  First it was Kevin Long (Hitting Coach) and now Mariano. I also agree that such perception probably played a role in not going over 7.

    NY rotation 2014

      I feel sorry for the bullpen with that rotation. Pineda hasn't been missed more. :) I know people are down on Kuroda, but you take out his last start and he's actually solid. I'm not too big with including last years stats with the present. After all there was a several month break, new season...
