There is just no pleasing some people -- and Craig happens to be one of them.
Alex Rodriguez homered twice, Jorge Posada had two hits and the New York Yankees stopped a six-game losing streak with a 6-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night.
The Yankees have signed left-handed relief pitcher Randy Flores to a Triple-A contract, according to WFAN's Jon Heyman.
Through 39 games the Yankees have been nothing but pure comedy. And if I was to cast an epic for the big screen, I would draw my inspiration from three classic baseball movies.
It's Jorge Posada vs. the Yankees, round two. According to the Daily News, the Yankees told Posada that in addition to DH duties, he may have to catch from time to time in an emergency. But whenever he was asked to work behind the dish, Posada refused.
Hank Steinbrenner said on Monday that he isn't too happy with how the Yankees are playing. One can only wonder how he feels after the Bombers' latest loss.
The Bombers hope their run against James Shields continues as the AL East-leading Rays attempt to sweep a two-game set and send New York to a seventh consecutive loss Tuesday night.
The Yankees can't buy a win right now. Mired in controversy, the bumbling Bombers dropped one to the Tampa Bay Rays, 6-5, for their sixth loss in a row.
Yankees reliever Rafael Soriano is still being slowed by his right elbow. The setup man felt discomfort during a bullpen session on Monday and his status is being re-evaluated.
Jerry "Rello" Recco is good at his job, rarely makes mistakes and is always ultra-prepared for his informative updates. As for Yankees radio play-by-play man John Sterling, let's just say he can be very entertaining at times.
The Yankees held a 5-1 lead over the Rays last night in Tampa. Then A.J. Burnett imploded in the 6th and the Bombers were handed their 6th straight loss.
Sam Fuld and B.J. Upton both hit two-run homers to help the Tampa Bay Rays rally and hand the New York Yankees' their sixth consecutive loss with a 6-5 victory Monday night.
Perhaps no matter how humble we are, stardom is bound to poison us. It has clearly corrupted Jorge Posada.
Jorge Posada still has unwavering support in the Yankee Stadium stands. Now, a tumultuous weekend behind him, New York could use a few of those big hits he used to deliver all the time.
Shortstop Derek Jeter and Yankees management have worked out their differences regarding Jeter's comments on Jorge Posada.
Jorge Posada gets a lot of love for being a Yankee with championship pedigree. But the masses turn quickly when you're hitting .165.
Jorge Posada's days as a Yankee are numbered. The moment he told his manager he'd rather sit down than hit from the No. 9 hole sealed it. The real shame is that he's likely just the first in a long line headed out the door in New York.
The Rays feel facing the Yankees for the first time in 2011 isn't a big deal. That may be because the AL East leaders have a more pressing concern. Though, so do the Yankees.
It's a tale of two cities. The Yankees are floundering after a good start and their AL East rivals, the Red Sox, are finding that reaching .500 in May after an 0-6 start feels A-OK.
Craig spent his Saturday night at a sports bar watching the Red Sox-Yankees game with his wife and some friends. The game was broadcast nationally on Fox, so he got to hear a hoarse Joe Buck along with his partner Tim McCarver... and Sarah Silverman.
Jerry "Rello" Recco began his first update of the week by recapping the Yankees' 5th straight defeat, a 7-5 loss to the Red Sox, which put a nice bow on Boston's 3-game sweep in the Bronx.
Believe it or not, New York's sweep at the hands of Boston this weekend took a back seat to another story out of Yankee land.
Kevin Youkilis hit a tying three-run homer, David Ortiz had a go-ahead drive and the Boston Red Sox completed a sweep of the reeling New York Yankees with a 7-5 victory Sunday night to reach .500 for the first time this season.
Regardless if Jorge Posada apologizes for the circus he created on Saturday night at Yankee Stadium, his image will forever be tarnished. He basically put a black mark on everything he's accomplished.
Jorge Posada is not in the New York Yankees' lineup for their series finale against Boston, one night after the slumping star asked to sit out and ended up in a messy public spat with management.
