There's a new #1 this week, I think you know who it is. Here's a hint: they've won nine straight games.
Yankees catcher Russell Martin was back in the lineup on Sunday after missing four straight games from a stiff back. "Feeling good," he said. Well, Martin must have felt something not-so-good on Monday.
A few months ago, former Mets ballplayer, Rico Brogna, graciously agreed to address students taking my course on sabermetrics.
Ronnie from New Rochelle called in with a serious concern regarding Derek Jeter's pursuit of hit No. 3,000 He asked the guys if the Yankees captain would have special balls for his at-bats as the milestone gets closer.
To begin his first update of the morning, Jerry "Rello" Recco played a cut from a familiar voice as we listened to Suzyn Waldman describe Derek Jeter's early exit from last night's 1-0 Yankees loss to the Indians.
Derek Jeter collected the 2,994th hit of his career last night in the bottom of the 1st inning and all seemed well in Yankee Land...
Derek Jeter limped off the field with a sore right calf four innings after getting his 2,994th hit, and Carlos Carrasco escaped early trouble to pitch the Cleveland Indians past the New York Yankees 1-0 Monday night.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira joined other city officials Monday to announce a partnership that will build a new charter school and affordable housing in East Harlem.
By now, most Yankees fans know about the provision in CC Sabathia's seven-year contract that gives him the ability to opt out after this season. If his comments Sunday night are any indication, the Yankees' ace might just be leaning against exercising the clause.
Bartolo Colon was placed on the disabled list Sunday with a strained right hamstring, the latest blow to New York's ailing rotation. But don't worry, Yankees fans. The Bombers -- and Colon -- feel he'll be back on the mound as soon as the hefty starter is eligible.
Derek Jeter admits reaching 3,000 hits is constantly on his mind. It's unavoidable with everyone talking about it. And he also knows there are only four games left on the Yankees' current homestand before they head out for a six-game road trip.
Curtis Granderson and Mark Teixeira's home run pace could allow them to become the first teammates to reach the mark of 50 since Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle in 1961. It would only be fitting if two present day Yankees match the accomplishments of the immortal 'M&M Boys,' and usher back memories of a bygone era in baseball.
Sometime in the next week or so, Derek Jeter will hold up his right hand to ask the plate umpire for time, give his bat one more ritualistic twirl and then, perhaps take an iconic inside-out swing and send another liner to right field to become the 28th player - and first in four years - to reach the magic number.
Derek Jeter had a pair of RBI singles, Alex Rodriguez drove in three runs and the New York Yankees pounded out a season-high 18 hits in beating the slumping Cleveland Indians for the third straight time, 9-1 on Sunday.
The New York Yankees placed Bartolo Colon on the disabled list Sunday with a strained right hamstring, the latest blow to an already ailing starting rotation.
Alex Rodriguez was hit by a pitch after he homered, Bartolo Colon pitched two-hit ball into the seventh inning before he hurt himself, and the New York Yankees beat the Cleveland Indians 4-0 on a misty, windy Saturday afternoon.
Alex Rodriguez hit a colossal home run, Curtis Granderson also connected and the New York Yankees got back on track with an 11-7 victory over the skidding Cleveland Indians in a game that quickly grew testy Friday night.

The "Joba Rules" have been debated and dissected since Joba Chamberlain burst onto the Bronx scene in 2007. So now that he likely requires Tommy John surgery for a torn ligament in his right elbow, it had to be asked: Does Yankees general manager Brian Cashman regret how he handled his young hurler?
We all got tired of hearing about the Joba Rules, but the Yankees stuck with them. And in the end, Joba Chamberlain still got injured and needs Tommy John surgery. But don't think it means the Yankees are going to be any less careful with their pitching assets.
David Ortiz got more than even for getting drilled. Ortiz broke loose soon after CC Sabathia hit him with a pitch, starting and finishing a burst that led the Red Sox over the Yankees 8-3 early Friday. "Finally got hit," Ortiz said afterward in a short rant that included some profanity.
Only one day after going on the DL with what was purported to be a muscle strain of the flexor tendons attaching at the inner elbow (medial epicondylitis), a contrast MRI revealed that Joba Chamberlain has a ligament tear that will likely require Tommy John surgery.
Although he has a lot of fun at John Sterling's expense, Craig is really a big fan of the Yankees radio play-by-play man. That's why I think it somewhat pained him to deliver this gem about Sterling's habits on the buffet line.
This morning, Jerry Recco reported the injury news surrounding Joba Chamberlain, who will likely undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the rest of the season. The news set Craig off on a tangent about Joba's father Harlan, which prompted Boomer to agree that his radio partner is a bad guy.
