With Chien-Ming Wang out until September, do you think the Yankees will go out and trade some players for a big-time starter like C.C Sabathia, or will they possibly bring someone up from the Minors, not including Kei Igawa?

Phillies hot-hitting leftfielder Pat Burrell pounded a two out 3 run homer to leftfield in the 7th inning off of reliever Jorge Julio to erase a 5-2 Colorado lead. 1st baseman Ryan Howard resolved the issue with a one out walk-off double to left off of Taylor Buchholz in the 10th inning as the   more...

As the Beerleaguer puts it, "When it comes to free agent relievers, there's an unusually high level of rubbish this winter." This list comes on the heels of the Phillies walking away from a Joe Borowski signing after he and his bum shoulder failed to impress doctors during a physical. He's not   more...

Red Sox leadoff man 2nd baseman Dustin Pedroia, who hit 8 homeruns the entire season, became only the 2nd leadoff hitter ever to lead off a World Series with a homerun. Josh Beckett was beyond awesome on the mound and the Rockies, off of an 8 day layoff awaiting the AL pennant winner, went totally   more...

The game story in the New York Post today is a classic example of the mindset of the Yankees, their fans and the reporters that cover the team. Two classic components of the Yankee attitude are on display.1.) Everyone wants to be a Yankee under any circumstances - no questions asked. 2.) The   more...

New York Yankees star short stop Derek Jeter took a pretty good beating from a Daniel Cabrera pitch in tonight's game. The Baltimore Orioles pitcher lost control of a fastball and it hit Jeter full speed right on his hand. Jeter was in obvious pain after the beaning, and was immediately taken out   more...

As a New York Yankee fan, there is only one good thing I can say about the Yankees' decision to add LaTroy Hawkins to their bullpen.Thank God Hawkins is reportedly only getting a one-year contract ($3.75M) from the Yankees!

When the draft goes down in June, teams, players and fans are filled with for the future. That someday those players will grow up and help contribute to the parent club's success and turn into superstars.

Evidently it's premature to put away your outrage, Yankee fans. Diehards of the Bombers were indignant this spring when non-roster invitee Morgan Ensberg was granted the No. 21 during spring training. No Yankee had donned the number since Paul O'Neill, and it had widely been assumed that the   more...

Chien-Ming Wang didn't have it, but the offense exploded for four runs in the fourth, fifth and eighth innings as the Yanks out-muscled the Red Sox 15-9 in a wacky game at The Stadium. The Yankees blew a 7-2 for the second time in the past three games, but the bats are starting to sizzle. How hot   more...

Phil Hughes started strong, but couldn't finish, LaTroy Hawkins couldn't stop the bleeding and Daniel Cabrera was effectively wild (or is it wildly effective?) as the Orioles scored seven times in the bottom of the sixth and trounced the Yanks 8-2 in Baltimore.

Yankee fans spoke up and LaTroy Hawkins listened. After getting booed on opening-day and pitching to chants of "Paul-O-Neill" Hawkins abandoned his No. 21 and will don No. 22 for the remainder of the season.Hawkins dressed last night in Paul O'Neill's number but afterwards Yankees' director of   more...
