Yankees All-Time Roster: Left Field
Due to the substantial number of outfielders and the job of separating the players by position I am going to leave you the option of choosing all of the candidates in the poll. I will do this for each outfield position. Remember, get the position in the outfield right! Example: Don’t put Bernie Williams for left field poll, wait until the center field poll. Please read rules after the jump. Top...
Postgame notes: Bullpen providing consistency
Familiar questions resurfaced this afternoon, but the Yankees seem to have moved on to bigger and better things. The questions are the same — Will there there be even more changes to the rotation? Should there be? — but the questions seem less pressing when the team has won eight in a row. The lineup is producing, and that’s obviously crucial, but the Yankees bullpen has been just...

Vazquez staying in the Yankees rotation
After several weeks of back-and-forth with the rotation, Joe Girardi said he plans to stick with his starting five for now. That means, according to the current plan, Javier Vazquez will make his next scheduled start. “My plan is for him to stay in the rotation,” Girardi said. “I can’t tell you exactly what’s going to happen. There are no guarantees in this game. When you start making...

Yankees win eighth straight
Until the seventh inning, Blue Jays reliever Jason Frasor had not allowed a home run to a right-handed hitter this season. That ended when Marcus Thames went deep, a two-run shot that was his 11th of the year and gave the Yankees a 7-5 win at Yankee Stadium. The Yankees have now won eight in a row, a season-high, and Thames has homered in seven of his past eight starts. The Yankees late-inning relievers...

Pregame notes: Simulated game, real steps forward
Nothing but good news coming out of the simulated three-innings of Team Pettitte against Team Rodriguez. Andy Pettitte “I felt better each inning I went out there,” Pettitte said. “I felt like the last inning I turned it up pretty good and wasn’t worried about anything at all.” No one seems certain what comes next, but Pettitte would ideally throw a bullpen on Monday and make a rehab...
