It’s time for Sonny Gray to grow up. A big part of that process will be learning to focus on his future rather than his Yankees past. No cogent argument can be made that claims Sonny Gray’s tenure with the Yankees was anything other than a disaster for all parties. His career took a sharp

Luis Severino’s shoulder injury has the Yankees brass scrambling. Brian Cashman might dip back into free agency to protect his starting rotation. One of the biggest determining factors for the Yankees’ ability to win their 28th World Series Championship is the performance of Luis Severino. Unfortunately, the team’s ace is now a major doubt to
The New York Yankees were truly Bronx Bombers last year, but Aaron Judge and sees potential for more in 2019. Last year, the New York Yankees had 12 players hit double-digit home runs, including six guys who topped 20, on their way to the major league record with 267 home runs as a team. Arguably

The New York Yankees have exercised some responsibility this offseason, but the deal they gave Aaron Hicks is not without risk. The New York Yankees have been more responsible with free agent spending in recent years, and this offseason was no different as they were only peripherally involved on Bryce Harper and Manny Machado. But
Brett Gardner and Clint Frazier will spend Spring Training battling for the starting spot in left field, but Aaron Boone seems to already favor Frazier. Spring Training has just begun for the Yankees, but manager Aaron Boone is already dropping hints about which players he thinks will win starting positions for 2019. His early words
After an excellent 19-year career, CC Sabathia officially announced that the 2019 season will be his last — and he can be proud of the legacy he will leave behind. CC Sabathia’s 19-year career in Major League Baseball has been a tad bumpy at times, especially over the last few years. But nonetheless, he made

The Yankees have a great shot to end their World Series drought in 2019, but don’t expect things to go exactly according to plan for New York. Most Yankee fans enter the 2019 season with the belief that anything less than a 28th World Series title will be deemed a failure. Manager Aaron Boone’s team
Luis Severino and the Yankees may end up battling in arbitration, but Brian Cashman would prefer to reach a long-term deal with the team’s ace. The Yankees know just how ugly the arbitration process can be. They went through a tense battle with Dellin Betances back in 2017 and they want to avoid the same

Zach Britton has been a solid left-handed reliever, but time will tell if Zack Britton will make a seamless transition. For a three-year stretch with the Baltimore Orioles (2014-16), Zach Britton had 120 saves (an AL-leading 47 in 2016) with a 9.3 K/9 ratio and a 2.4 BB/9 and went to two All-Star games. He

The Yankees already have five quality starting pitchers, but Brian Cashman needs to add a sixth option before Spring Training begins. The chances of the Yankees making it all the way through the 2019 regular season with five healthy starting pitchers are astronomically low. That’s why Brian Cashman knows he has to find a sixth
Some Yankees are set to exceed expectations in 2019, but it stands to reason some guys will disappoint. These five players are prime candidates to struggle. The Yankees are going to enter the 2019 campaign with massive expectations. In the minds of many New York fans, next season is World Series or bust. It’s safe

The New York Yankees have been trying to deal Sonny Gray, and now the right-hander is on his way to the Cincinnati Reds.

Mike Moustakas is one of the best hitters left on the free agent market, and the Chicago White Sox should be interested. The Chicago White Sox are a club still in the midst of a rebuild. They have great young talent pool simmering in the minor leagues. So, why not add a veteran hitter? The
Signing Nolan Arenado next winter in free agency is a reasonable plan for the Yankees. Making a trade for him this offseason would be a huge mistake. It’s very possible part of the reason the Yankees elected to pass on Manny Machado this winter is because they’d prefer to sign Nolan Arenado next year. There

Aaron Boone isn’t going to have any shortage of options in the Yankees bullpen next season. Signing Adam Ottavino gives him a dominant group of relievers. Manny Machado may be holding up a lot of free agency moves in MLB, but the Yankees clearly aren’t bothered by his indecision. Instead of sitting around and waiting
The Yankees paid D.J. LeMahieu starter money to bring him to New York, but there’s no clear plan for exactly how Aaron Boone wants to use him. In a vacuum, signing D.J. LeMahieu to a two-year, $24 million contract looks like excellent business for the Yankees. The real measure of the deal’s value won’t be

The Yankees didn’t replace Miguel Andujar with Manny Machado this winter, but that doesn’t mean Nolan Arenado won’t take his job next offseason. Miguel Andujar might be breathing a little easier these days with the news that the Yankees probably aren’t going to bring Manny Machado to the Bronx. The talented infielder shouldn’t get too
The Yankees need to make quality contingency plans in case Manny Machado heads elsewhere. Signing Mike Moustakas would be a great Plan B. Everyone understands the collective eyes of the Yankees universe are glued to Manny Machado at the moment. The chance to sign a 26-year-old All-Star at a position of need is always captivating
