The iron men

The Yankees have a very durable group of guys leading their rotation. In fact, I just looked through every other team’s rotation, and I couldn’t find one more stable. This idea popped into my head after reading a couple other bloggers post about how the Yankees should be expecting injuries to this year’s rotation. Obviously you have to expect some bumps and bruises, but I’m certainly not expecting any of the “big four” to be missing a month or more. Here’s a quick rundown: CC Sabath

Damon update, a pricey souvenir, a reminder about tomorrow and...

Scott Boras is still spinning on Johnny Damon, telling USA Today that he is “negotiating with a number of teams” and then adding that, “There are three teams out there that if they don’t have Johnny Damon, they’re not winning the division. He’s the difference in these teams making the playoffs or not contending.” Now, it [...] Click on the headline for the rest of this blog post ...

So, if there’s a losing streak in April …

… maybe the Yankees would consider bringing in this guy? Joachim de Posada is a relative of Jorge’s, and apparently he’s quite the motivational speaker. In one of his more recent sessions with a pro team, Joachim reportedly addressed the (unbelievably bad) New Jersey Nets before a game against the 76ers. At one point, while explaining [...] Click on the headline for the rest of this blog post ...

What $103,579 can buy…

So many other things besides Alex Rodriguez’s 500th home run ball. The article from the Daily News lists a few other notable home run balls sold. Barry Bonds – 756 - $752,467 Mark McGwire – 70 - $3 million Roger Maris – 61 – $5,000 I collect some memorabilia, but I’m not going to spend over $500 on anything. Maybe after I become rich and famous I will.

Freddy Guzman steals home

Remember Freddy Guzman? The outfielder was added to the Yankees roster in October as an extra speedster off the bench. He made the postseason roster, but the situation to steal never arose. Well, yesterday Guzman stole home for the Dominican Republic Leones del Escogido. And no, the Yankees cannot re-sign him. Why? Because the Phillies already did — to a Minor League contract.

Nick Johnson, the Ideal No. 2 Hitter?

Any talk about Nick Johnson should begin with the disclaimer, "assuming he stays healthy."  That being said, Mike Axisa at the riveraveblues.com, has an interesting piece this morning on why Nick Johnson should be a terrific fit batting second for...

The Ballpark Best of the Rest

Yankee Stadium – old or new – will always have a certain special quality because of the Yankees place in baseball history. But not every park has the built-in advantage of being the place where one of the more famed teams in all of sports plays its games. Most stadiums have to bring something else [...] Click on the headline for the rest of this blog post ...

Pinch hitting: Jason Rodriguez

Next up in the Pinch Hitters series is Jason Rodriguez, who is glad this winter’s conversation has focused on new players and not a new stadium. Jason was born in the Bronx, graduated from Rochester Institute of Technology and currently lives in Rockland County. His first trip to the old Yankee Stadium as in 1996, when he got Derek [...] Click on the headline for the rest of this blog post ...

Online bidder pays $103,579 for A-Rod's historic 500th homer...

A-Rod's 500th home run ball is going, going, gone! The ball smashed by the Yankee slugger on Aug. 4, 2007, to reach the historic milestone fetched $103,579 in an online auction that ended Thursday night.

Hank: Yanks Looking Like Champs Again

The Yankees won the offseason, too. At least that seems to be Hank Steinbrenner's opinion after watching general manager Brian Cashman make two moves in particular this winter that Steinbrenner believes will put the Yankees in position to successfully defend their world championship in 2010. Speaking to the Associated...
