Yanks Back in the Hunt
Posted on 6 Jun 2012 by Stephanie Geosits.
It's hard to believe it, but the Yankees are just half a game out of first in the AL East. After beating Tampa, courtesy of another strong performance by Ivan Nova, the Bombers find themselves trailing only the Orioles. That's right – Baltimore. The Rays are hanging in as a close third, and the Jays are just 2.5 games behind the leaders. Boston is in last – four games back. How did ...

Grandy’s Grand Slam Kills Tigers
Posted on 2 Jun 2012 by Jeremy Klumpp.
The major league debut for Tigers pitcher Casey Crosby (0-1) quickly became a forgettable one after a second inning grand slam by Curtis Granderson. The five runs scored in the second helped propel the Yankees to a 9-4 victory over the Tigers Friday night at Comerica Park. Crosby walked four batters before Granderson emptied the bases with his grand slam to right field giving the Yankees a 5-1...

Yes, Yogi, It’s Over
Posted on 7 Oct 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
Game 5 of the ALDS did not turn out as the Yankees or their fans had hoped or expected, but when you leave 11 men stranded and can only score on a solo homer and a bases-loaded walk, you probably don't deserve to win anyway. Post-season magic was nowhere to be found in the Bronx as the Tigers defeated New York 3-2. The Yankees out-hit Detroit 10 to eight but certainly not when it mattered. Ivan...

Here Come the Yankees! There Went the Sox!
Posted on 30 Sep 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
I'm not sure everyone is fully recovered from the shock of Wednesday night's season-ender, but alas the playoffs start today. First off, congratulations to the Rays, who hung in there and never gave up. Secondly, if the Red Sox and the Nation blame anyone but the team for that collapse they should be ashamed. Now, onto the ALDS, where the Yankees take on the one man show named Justin Verlander...

Cy Young Award Goes to…
Posted on 26 Sep 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
As the 2011 season draws to a close, most playoff teams have staked claims on their postseason berth. Only the wildcard qualifications have yet to be determined and those will excitingly come down to the final games of the season. While I was opposed to the wildcard implementation in 1995, I now concede that it works. Wildcards promote exciting September baseball and affords the best non-divi...

Yankees or Red Sox: Who Wins the AL East
Posted on 10 Aug 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
This week on our PSB Baseball radio show I spoke with Brenda Sepanak (Red Sox Writer) and Stephanie Geosits (Yankees Writer) to discuss their recent three game series and what each team must do to win the division. http://www.talkshoe.com/talkshoe/web/audioPop.jsp?episodeId=521659&cmd=apop

Trade Winds Blow Past Bombers
Posted on 3 Aug 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The surprising news out of the Bronx at the trade deadline was that there was no news. Brian Cashman sat back and didn't make any moves. I think this was a smart decision. The Yankees are in a good position to make the post-season, although they currently trail Boston by a game. They are very protective of their minor league talent, and, let's be honest, no one on the market was that attractiv...

100 Games Down, A Long Way to Go
Posted on 26 Jul 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The Yankees sit at an even .600 after drubbing the Mariners in game 100. It's respectable, sure, but it's still not good enough for first place, since the Red Sox have a 2-game lead in the AL East. The Bombers have had some great moments, like Derek Jeter entering the 3,000 hit club on a home run in an absolutely perfect day for him. They've also had some disasters – injury-related and in...

AJ Isn’t the Problem
Posted on 25 Jun 2011 by Brendan Sennott.
I was going to write today about how one of my favorite players of all-time, Roger Clemens scored a minor victory in his upcoming perjury trial over that fraud George Mitchell and his well investigated(yeah right) steroid report. However, I woke up this morning and saw a lot of copy bashing A.J. Burnett after he and the Yanks were beaten last night 4 to 2 by Ubaldo Jimenez ...

Jake Arrieta Tied for Major-League Lead in Wins, is it a Fluke?
Posted on 24 Jun 2011 by Alex Van Rees.
If you are not an Orioles fan and you check the up-to-date wins list in the major leagues, you’ve probably never heard of the Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Jake Arrieta, who is currently tied with 10 other pitchers on the list with nine wins in only his second season in the majors. Jake Arrieta was originally drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 26th round of the 2005 amateur draft, b...

Sweepless in Seattle
Posted on 30 May 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The bullpen staff should be buying CC Sabathia dinner because his eight-inning, five-hit performance on Sunday spared them and the Yankees from being swept in Seattle and falling further behind the AL East-leading Red Sox. Heading into Monday, Boston had a one-game lead on New York, with Tampa half a game out of second. New York lost to the Mariners in 12 innings on Saturday night/early Su...

It’s Gettin’ Hot in Here
Posted on 11 May 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The heat is on in Yankee Universe. Tampa Bay continues to breathe down the Bombers' necks and sits just one game out of first. The good news is, however, that New York's bats have begun to shake off the spring sluggishness as we head into summer. Derek Jeter and A-Rod finally seem to be turning things around at the plate, but it's not like any of the regulars have been hitting the cover off the...
