Joba Chamberlain was placed on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday with a stiff elbow, leaving the Yankees' bullpen in dire straits.
On Monday morning, Craig coined the three-game Red Sox-Yankees series in the Bronx as a "grand re-opening" of the Major League Baseball season. Yikes.
David Ortiz hit one of three Boston homers to back a tireless Tim Wakefield and the Red Sox extended their domination of the Yankees this season, beating New York 11-6 on Wednesday night to take over first place in the AL East.
The New York Yankees' roster is seriously lacking in depth and it's up to general manager Brian Cashman to play catch-up to the superior Boston Red Sox. There are many needs that Cashman must address as the trade deadline approaches.
How should the Yankees handle David Ortiz's theatrics? The genteel response is to assert the only way to stop such celebrations is to keep him from hitting home runs. Since that is impossible and, frankly, the meek man's way of handling Big Papi, I must side with the second solution. Drill him.
The Yankees understand the occasional loss is merely a part of baseball. Just don't show them up in Yankee Stadium.
Mark Teixeira held his knee and writhed in pain near home plate, thinking the worst after being hit by a pitch from Jon Lester. "I've never seen him show that much pain before," manager Joe Girardi said.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi got to know Dante Bichette Jr. long before New York selected him with its first pick in the baseball draft. Now, Girardi could get a chance to guide the slugging 18-year-old as a budding big league ballplayer.
Jim Leyritz hit a couple of monumental home runs for the Yankees and was a member of two World Series winning teams in the Bronx. He had an 11-year big league career, but will likely be remembered for his trouble with the law.
In the first inning of last night's Red Sox-Yankees game, Jon Lester plunked Mark Teixiera in the knee with a pitch. During Jerry "Rello" Recco's first update we got to hear John Sterling describe the play as only he can.
In the first inning of last night's loss, Jon Lester hit Mark Teixeira and Russell Martin. To Craig's dismay, the Yankees failed to retaliate.
David Ortiz hit a two-run homer and Jonathan Papelbon labored through the ninth inning to earn his 200th save, leading the Boston Red Sox over the New York Yankees 6-4 Tuesday night.
The Indians fall, the Yankees rise, and a new #1 in this week's Top Ten.
The last time Boston came to the Bronx, it was tied for last place in the AL East. This time, the Yankees and archrival Red Sox will be in their more customary roles of playing for the division lead.
The Yankees' next ten games are against Boston, Cleveland, and Texas — all three are ranked among the five best offensive teams in the AL, and the Bombers will play them in hitter-friendly Yankee Stadium. It's shaping up to be quite a test for Joe Girardi's squad.
The son of Dante Bichette was among the players selected during the MLB draft's first day. And one day he just might make his debut in the Bronx.
The Mets have a good chance to land a talented young hurler in this year's MLB first-year player draft. With pick number 13, the Amazin's are at least guaranteed one of the players listed. As for the Bombers, well... Sorry Yankees fans, you're out of luck.
When commissioner Bud Selig steps to the podium at the MLB Network studios in Secaucus, N.J. to begin Monday night's MLB first-year player draft, he might say UCLA right-hander Gerrit Cole's name first. But who will the Mets and Yankees select? That's what New Yorkers want to know.
Mark Teixeira homered twice against his former team, Nick Swisher also went deep and the New York Yankees beat the Los Angeles Angels 5-3 on Sunday to win the three-game series.
CC Sabathia came within one out of his second complete game in three starts, Alex Rodriguez hit a go-ahead two-run homer and Robinson Cano also went deep, leading the New York Yankees to a 3-2 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Saturday night.

Sabathia hasn't fared as well in his recent regular-season matchups with Los Angeles, dropping consecutive decisions and six of 10, but beat the Angels twice in the 2009 AL championship series.
Alex Rodriguez defended having the cousin who supplied him with performance-enhancing drugs visit while the New York Yankees were on road trips.
Alex Rodriguez's relationship with his former steroid "mule" is again raising eyebrows. A-Rod's cousin, Yuri Sucart, is "traveling with Rodriguez on some road trips, despite being banned by the Yankees," the Daily News reported on Thursday.
