Alex Rodriguez will try to continue his hot hitting for the New York Yankees on Sunday when they finish a three-game home set against the Colorado Rockies.
CC Sabathia tossed eight stingy innings to win for the seventh time in his last eight starts, Alex Rodriguez drove in three runs and the Yankees finally beat the Rockies 8-3.
Joe Girardi won't rush Derek Jeter back from a strained right calf, even though he's eligible to come off the disabled list next week.
Jason Giambi hit a long homer against his former team and Ubaldo Jimenez overcame early wildness to pitch seven impressive innings, leading the Colorado Rockies to a 4-2 victory Friday night over New York in a rare trip to the Bronx.
Derek Jeter may have to wait even longer before resuming his march to 3,000 hits. Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said on Thursday that Jeter's still sore from the strained right calf that landed him on the disabled list.
Yogi Berra is most often remembered for his earnest and unintentionally hilarious views on life, but his baseball acumen was legendary, according to someone who is fairly well versed on the subject.
It's good to be Derek Jeter. He hasn't lost his leadoff job, Jose Reyes won't be around to steal his position, and he's on the mend from an injury that derailed his march to 3,000 hits.
Yankees fans can keep on dreaming. If the Mets move Jose Reyes at the trading deadline -- or if he decides to test free agency after this season -- one thing's for sure: Reyes won't wind up in pinstripes.
It's been just over a month since the last time Sweeny Murti joined me for an email discussion. With July 1 just around the corner, Sweeny and I just had to talk about the state of the Yankees.
Mariano Rivera is a star pitcher with the New York Yankees. But in New Rochelle, he's hit a home run.
Leadoff hitter Chris Heisey homered three times, getting Cincinnati's slumping lineup going, and Johnny Cueto allowed only two hits in seven innings Wednesday night, leading the Reds to a 10-2 win and a doubleheader split with the Yankees.
Brett Gardner has made an overwhelming case to bat leadoff for the Yankees and must be rewarded even if that means sending Derek Jeter down in the lineup. It's time for the Yankees to stop appeasing Jeter and give Gardner the chance he deserves.
According to Yankees manager Joe Girardi, there's no debate. Sure, Nick Swisher and Brett Gardner have found their stroke in the leadoff spot during Derek Jeter's absence, but the Yankees' captain is still No. 1.
Damon just joined a most exclusive club last week. Upon swatting his 500th double, he became the 11th player in MLB history to hit that many doubles, 100 triples, 200 homers, and 2,500 hits. The prior ten are a roll call for Cooperstown.
Alex Rodriguez sat at a folding table in the middle of the Yankees' clubhouse, watching video of right-hander Johnny Cueto's delivery on a laptop. Turned out, he was doing some really advance scouting.
