The New York Yankees downed the Baltimore Orioles 8-3 on Saturday to snap a two-game skid.
CC Sabathia and Brandon Drury are already the seventh and eighth players the Yankees have placed on the disabled list so far this season.
At the rate things were going, a few more innings could have left New York without enough players to keep playing anyway.
Adam Jones hit a go-ahead home run, Andrew Cashner pitched six strong innings and the Baltimore Orioles snapped a five-game losing streak, beating the New York Yankees 5-2 on Thursday night.
The Bronx Bombers lived up to their nickname with a 7-2 win over the already reeling Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday that completed a two-game sweep.
Stanton might've preferred if Mother Nature had interfered once more, because he did not have a good afternoon. It was the first five-strikeout game in his career.
New York improved to 3-2 under Boone, who took over when Joe Girardi was fired after a decade in charge.
Yankees outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury hurt a hip in his comeback from an oblique injury, a setback that means Aaron Hicks is likely to return from the disabled list first.
Aaron Boone's managerial debut was considerably smoother than the first game run by his father Bob, who pulled Kevin Appier with a no-hitter after 6 2/3 innings back in 1995.
Justin Smoak hit a two-run homer in the seventh inning and a go-ahead grand slam in the eighth to rally the Toronto Blue Jays past the New York Yankees 7-4 on Sunday.
Manager Aaron Boone expects Andujar, the Yankees' number four prospect according to MLB Pipeline, to log at bats at third base, first base, and DH.
The Blue Jays bounced back from two straight losses. Tyler Austin homered twice for the Yankees.
Giancarlo Stanton, who homered twice and doubled a day earlier in the opener, went 0 for 4. So did big hitters Aaron Judge and Gary Sanchez.
Giancarlo Stanton made the expected impression in his New York Yankees debut -- and more.
After a winter of waiting, the New York Yankees are ready to roll with two of baseball's best sluggers.
With Greg Bird expected to miss up to two months of the season due to ankle surgery, the Yankees are going to have to figure out how to get at least something serviceable out the first base position.
The Boston Red Sox will top the major leagues at about $223 million, ending the Los Angeles Dodgers' four-year run as the top spender.
Bird will have surgery will remove a small broken spur on the outside of the right ankle.
This is the second consecutive year that Bird had a late spring training injury.
Ellsbury is projected as a backup outfielder after losing the starting center field job to Aaron Hicks last season.
Giancarlo Stanton says he is prepared for the scrutiny he will attract during his first season with the New York Yankees.
A healthy Ellsbury might've been the Yanks' second choice when they needed another lefty bat. How so? Let us list the reasons.
Alex Rodriguez arrived at spring training Monday and had high praise for a lineup led by Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez and Didi Gregorius.
MLB hopes to make an announcement within the next two months.
The move allows Andujar, who hit .262 with four homers and 10 RBIs in 14 spring training games, to work on his defense in the minors.
