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 ...

Swept, A Sweep, and Heading for Home
Posted on 12 Apr 2012 by Stephanie Geosits.
After a fairly atrocious start in which the Yankees were swept by the Rays in a three-game set in Tampa, they rebounded by returning the favor to Buck Showalter's Orioles. With an even .500 record, New York returns to the Bronx for the 2012 home opener on Friday. The usual pomp and circumstance will be on tap, and Jorge Posada will have the honor of throwing out the first pitch. Hiroki Kuroda...

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...

So Who Goes to the Pen?
Posted on 5 Sep 2011 by Brendan Sennott.
The Yankees beat the Orioles in a sloppy Labor Day affair at Yankee Stadium 11-10. A win is a win as they say and the Bombers have now won 5 straight. They are 2.5 games up on the Red Sox for first place in the American League East. The magic number to clinch a playoff spot is down to 14. Jesus Montero has burst onto the scene hitting his first 2 big league homers while Jorge Posada is...

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...

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...

Bombers Motor to Detroit Atop AL East
Posted on 2 May 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The Yankees took the rubber match of a three-game set against the Jays behind the pitching of Ivan Nova to cap the weekend. Monday they take on the Tigers for the first of four games in the Motor City. The Bombers are maintaining their 2.5-game lead over the Rays in the standings and are relying on some unknown names to keep them there. Nova upped his record to 2-2 on Sunday, and Bartolo Colon ...

New Colon Smells Like Winning
Posted on 21 Apr 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The Yankees turned to Bartolo Colon on Wednesday night to make a spot start in Toronto in place of the ailing Phil Hughes and hoped that the old dog remembered all his tricks. He surprised everyone, including himself, earning his first win in almost two years, after sitting out the entire 2010 season. The veteran righty made it through 6 2/3 innings and struck out seven in allowing two earned r...

Deja Vu x 2
Posted on 15 Apr 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
In the same old, same old category: The Yankees crushed the Orioles' dreams of 2011 domination and knocked them out of first place in a two-game (rain-shortened) set. New York takes on Texas in a three-game series this weekend in an ALCS rematch against the leaders in the AL West. The Rangers are without Cliff Lee who fled for the Phillies and Josh Hamilton who broke his arm with a head-first s...

Uh-O! Much-Improved Baltimore Visits Bronx
Posted on 11 Apr 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The first-place Orioles (yes, that's correct) will face off against the Yankees in a three-game set this week. The Bombers dropped two games in Boston this past weekend and exposed a few glaring problems. Nonetheless, New York and Toronto remain tied for second in the AL East at 5-4, one game behind Baltimore. Buck Showalter has continued to work his magic with the O's, after starting to right ...

Evil Empire Invades Weakend ‘Nation’
Posted on 8 Apr 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
You almost feel sorry for them – those die-hard Sox fans who were intent on recapturing post-season glory. All the smack talk during the off-season about how they were going to ride pitching excellence all the way until October. And here they sit at 0-6, off to their worst start since 1945. Sigh… Meanwhile, back at the Death Star in the 10451, the Yankees have played well enough to ...

Not Enough Power to Sweep
Posted on 4 Apr 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The Yankees came out of the gate with bats on fire and took two of three from Detroit. Mark Teixeira had three dingers in the three games, and Jorge Posada homered twice yesterday in powering the Bombers' offense to score 23 runs in the first series of the season. Tex has seven RBI to boot. CC Sabathia had a decent opening day start, but Joba got the win in relief as the Yankees rallied again...
