Yankees Deadline Deals Could Look Better in 2015

Posted in Baseball, Brian Cashman, Red Sox, Roster Analysis, Yankees on August 1, 2014 | Leave a Comment »

Brian Cashman had a pretty good July. Without sacrificing the future, he was able to add four players who, at the very least, should allow the Yankees to remain near the pennant race, if not in it.

Save the Tar and Feathers; Apology Should Come from MLB, Not Yankees or Pineda

Posted in Baseball, Brian Cashman, Red Sox, Rulebook, Yankees on April 24, 2014 | Leave a Comment »

Michael Pineda put himself and the Yankees in a sticky situation when he took the mound in the second inning of last night’s game wearing a very noticeable swath of pine tar on his neck. The glistening goop was so noticeable, the big right hander would have been better off stealing the pine tar rag […]

Posted in Alex Rodriguez, Arod, Baseball, Brian Cashman, Hal Steinbrenner, Yankees on December 31, 2013 | 2 Comments »

There’s something disturbing about the recently released email exchanges between Randy Levine and Alex Rodriguez.

Plan $189 Million Is Dead; Are Yankees Revived?

Posted in Arod, Baseball, Brian Cashman, Business and Finance, Hal Steinbrenner, Hot Stove, MLB, Robinson Cano, Yankees on December 5, 2013 | 2 Comments »

Plan $189 million is dead. Long live the Yankee dollar. The Yankees aren’t saying that, of course.
