How long is it going to take the Yankees to replace Chase Headley at third base with Gleyber Torres? Headley is a veteran so it's really unknown however Torres has been promoted to AAA and realistically isn't that far from the majors despite being only 20 years old. Even though Aaron Judge was not successful last year, it can't be denied that the time he spent up in the majors must've helped prepare him for what he's done this year and I would think that the Yankees would wan

5/20/17 The Yankees have not been shut out in 2017 and have 10 comeback wins.

Fans always believed that the Yankees were still in the game and the above stat showing that the Yanks have yet to be shut out is more proof that this team has something special going on.

Welcome to the Baby Bomber Era The Yankees are experiencing a youth movement for the first time in a while and there are quite a few “Baby Bombers” with high expectations.

For Part 4, we will talk about a few more Baby Bombers that are working their way to the Majors. Blake Rutherford Blake Rutherford appears to be a blue chip prospect. At 6’3, this 19 year old outfielder

On Thursday night, the first-place New York Mets won an exciting, see-saw matchup 9-8 in 16 innings in Miami against the Marlins. Mets’ C Travis d’Arnaud went 4-for-6 and hit a game-winning HR in the top of the 16th against Miami LHP Adam Conley. It was d’Arnaud’s second HR on the young season, and most impressively, he hit it in the 16th after spending the entire game behind the plate. The Mets’ RHP Hansel Robles (2-0), pitching in his fourth straight game this week, earn

Over the next few blogs, I will review a few of these players, where they stand and what can be expected. For Part 3, we will talk about a few more Baby Bomber that were all acquired at last year’s trade deadline and should make an impact for the Yankees down the road.
