I can't help but think this scenario has a chance to be "The Phantom Menace" or "The Godfather Part III" of bullpens – far too much hype to ever live up to.
"If I paid for a ticket, I should be able to watch the game anywhere I want to sit at," said Ben Aggray, of Brooklyn. "You should be mad about it. I'm a New Yorker. I'm mad about it."
"I felt like I needed to get some help and decided to do that, entered the rehab facility and it was a good experience," said Sabathia.
As pitchers and catchers arrived at the Yankees' spring training facility on Thursday, the buzz centered on a lean lefty with an extraordinary fastball.
"Our goal is to win the World Series, bottom line," Girardi said.
Despite serving a 162-game suspension for violating the sport's PED policy, A-Rod returned to a Caesar's ovation.
Authorities in Florida concluded last month there was not sufficient evidence to charge the flame-throwing lefty in the Oct. 30 incident.
Andrew Miller can't wait to watch Aroldis Chapman on a mound up close.
Boomer & Craig were thrilled to find the great John Sterling in the building Thursday morning, as the Yankees radio play-by-play man was preparing to co-host the midday show.
With a good portion of the conversation Thursday morning dedicated to the Yankees' controversial new ticket policy, Boomer & Craig tried to get clarification during an interview with team COO Lonn Trost.
The Rangers lost to the mighty Blackhawks on Wednesday night at MSG. Let's just say Boomer didn't take it too well.
New York Yankees fans are crying foul over the team's new ticketing policy.
Their only major additions were second baseman Starlin Castro, closer Aroldis Chapman and outfielder Aaron Hicks, all acquired in trades.
At least Brian Cashman won't have to answer questions about Jenrry Mejia when the Yankees report to their Tampa spring training camp Thursday.
Andy Pettitte is confident former Yankees teammate CC Sabathia can be successful this season with a diminished fastball that normally tops out in the upper 80 mph range.
The Yankees said the injury dates back to when Tanaka pitched in Japan.
CC Sabathia sounds like a new man. The veteran left-hander is poised to restart his career following a stint in alcohol rehab last fall.

The Yankees will dedicate a plaque for retired relief pitcher Mariano Rivera in Monument Park at Yankee Stadium on Aug. 14 before a game against Tampa Bay.
He's not yet ready to retire, but Carlos Beltran says he's realistic about what the future has in store for him in baseball.
"I think in theory it's something we constantly talk about, and we do -- I can't deny that it's not something that comes up from time and time, year to year," Cashman said.
The Yankees may have issues in their rotation heading into the 2016 season, but their bullpen looks on paper like it could be incredible, perhaps even historic. Just ask Brian McCann and Andrew Miller.
New York Yankees pitcher Masahiro Tanaka, coming back after arthroscopic surgery to remove a bone spur from his right elbow last October, has thrown off a bullpen mound.
The Yankees have behaved very uncharacteristically this offseason, but that doesn't mean they didn't improve. Just ask baseball executives.
Led by Miller, Chapman and Dellin Betances, the Yankees' bullpen figures to be among the best -- if not the best -- in the majors this season.
