The greatest part of these series are the amazing pitching matchups that come with each game, for the most part (Wakefield is in the Red Sox rotation as of right now). In the first two games alone you have 4 top 20 pitchers facing off against each other, with game 1 already having pitchers who may [...]

Yankees Beat Twins 6-4, Sweep Season Series

Unfortunately the Aceves test was a failure. It was clear that he was nervous and had no control over his pitches, or his throws to first base, as seen in the bottom of the 2nd when he threw away a pickoff attempt to first base when Cuddyer was sleeping while taking a lead. It wasn’t [...]
Yanks Hold Off Twins, Win 4-3

Despite control issues, A.J. Burnett got his third straight win and continued his streak of dominate performances, dominate would be a stretch for last night, but he definitely did have his moments. Although A.J. did put on 11 batters in 6.1 innings, he worked in and out of trouble and escaped last night’s game only [...]
Yankees Dominate Twins 10-2 in Series Opener

CC Sabathia bounced back from his last start the only way you would expect it, by putting together 7 innings of 3 hit, one walk ball while giving up only one earned run. Although dominate performances are somewhat expected you never really know, Sabathia did give up 6 earned against a much less potent Seattle [...]
Pettitte Comes Up Big at Home, Win 4-2

If you have been following Pettitte at home this year then you might have joined me in a sigh of relief yesterday as he put up his best outting at home since his 2 run performance against the Rays on June 8th (that start was sandwiched between two terrible starts, one against the Rangers and [...]

Well this can be a very interesting series for the Yankees…but another one that they should win…but traditionally they struggle with the team from Seattle…and they are actually playing surprisingly well and have some pop on the team too…look out for Russel Branyan this guy is a monster….slugging 19 homeruns with 10 of them coming [...]

HOLLER!!!!!!! The Yankees have once again taken a series and everything…at least it seems…is right again with the Bronx Bombers…everything has been going so good over the past 2 games that even Arod decided to join the party! Hey Yankee fans, if you were wondering how much of an impact Arod’s hitting has on the [...]

Well there is really only one word to describe the way the Yankees have played as of late…and that is PATHETIC!!! This is the 3rd series in a row where they are facing a team they have a distinct advantage over and now they drop the first and most crucial game of this series. The [...]

ummmmmmmmmm…was I sleeping or something along those lines? Because I’m pretty sure I just had a nightmare that the Yankees couldn’t handle the WORST TEAM in baseball (possibly ever)…and dropped 2 of 3 to them. Really? Is that what you guys are about? I know teams go into slumps…yada, yada, yada…but right now? AGAINST THE [...]
