Yankees Waiting on Pujols and Mauer?
Uh…. what?
Pujols is talking a good game with the Cardinals. But can he really ignore the 10-year, $27.5 million-per-year deal that Alex Rodriguez got from the Yankees two years ago, when he was older than Pujols will be when his contract ends after the 2011 season? The difficulties tying up...

The Vazquez Trade: The Day After
It’s the day after the Yankees traded for Javier Vazquez and the fans are split. I’ve heard and read a lot of different opinions over the last two days about this trade and thought it was worth addressing a few of them.
1. Melky Cabrera. A lot of people are treating Melky Cabrera like the...

Vazquez To The Yankees: Our Analysis
Ian: When the Red Sox improved their rotation last week, acquiring the services of arguably the best starting pitcher on the free agent market in John Lackey, Yankee fans fretted. Suddenly the Sox boasted a rotation brimming with three number-one starter types in Jon Lester, Josh Beckett, and Lackey. ...

Why Nick and Not Matsui?
Looks like the only thing left bringing DH/1B Nick Johnson back to New York is the dotting of the I’s. The $5.5 million price tag has left many wondering why the accident prone Johnson and not the gimpy-legged Matsui?
Jason over at IIATMS led the charge:
Nick Johnson has the potential to thrive...

World Series Game 2 Thoughts
Random observations about a somewhat unexpected pitchers duel:
◊ I like AJ Burnett a little bit more today. That’s easy to say after the man gave up one run over seven innings in a must win World Series game. Burnett threw a first pitch strike to 18 of 26 batters last night. The three batters...

ALCS Game 5 Thoughts
Thoughts about the game while I try to stop my head from sadly shaking:
◊ Last night once again encapsulated AJ Burnett as a pitcher. Burnett came out in the bottom of the first and stunk up the joint, allowing four runs before an out was recorded. A long flyout and double play later, AJ gets out...

ALDS Game 2 Thoughts – Yanks & Twins
Some thoughts after surviving through game two:
Wow.
I don’t care what Joe Girardi says. Gardner made a huge mistake in the 10th when he was doubled off third on Damon’s line drive. With one out, Gardner could have trotted home on any ball that got through the infield. There was no...

ALDS Game One Thoughts
Random thoughts after watching the Yankees win behind CC Sabathia, two years after losing to him and the Indians in the 2007 ALDS:
• Jorge Posada looked awful tonight. Two passed balls, one of which may have been a cross-up that he flat out missed and a 1 for 4 game at the plate. It’s not...

Yanks Beat Angels; Speed Got Lucky
Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Yankees beat the Angels!
My goodness. Touring the beat writers and bloggers who recapped last night’s game, you would thing Davey had slain Goliath.
Typically, the Angels have had the Yankees number over the years. This much is true.
This year, the Yankees...

2009 Yankees: What’s Changed From 2008
Last night was an off day and there’s only so many articles you can post about Derek Jeter before the man starts to bore you.
So, in an effort to find something to write about, I’m throwing together a comparison of this year’s team offensively to last year’s team.
Yes, I know,...

Neyer: Tex the MVP?
Rob Neyer, responding to Tyler Kepner’s tweet that Mark Teixeira is the de facto MVP:
No question? Honestly? Maybe Kepner just means that Teixeira will win, rather than that he should win.–
Look, Teixeira’s having a great season. Obviously. But I count, at the moment, four viable MVP...

Wind Not a Factor in New Yankee Stadium
BBTF channeling SNY:
Dr. Alan Nathan’s study used the precise and consistent measurements of hitf/x data courtesy of Sportsvision, which has equipment at Major League parks, to track the initial batted-ball trajectory. From there, initial batted-ball velocity, vertical launch angle and horizontal spray...
