From Jon Heyman:Manny Ramirez still could have one chance to come home. While the Mets have all but decided they will not pursue the slugging savant from Washington Heights, in Upper Manhattan, the Yankees clearly have not ruled out a run at Ramirez. Indications are that the Yankees are concentrating on their biggest needs first, led by a starting rotation that has only two certainties -- Chien-Mi
Peter Abraham is reporting that the Yankees did not, and will not offer any of their eligible players arbitration. More info as it comes....Here's what Abraham said about the Yankees reasoning behind this:It came down to economics. The Yankees did not want to risk going to arbitration with any of their players given the salaries they made last season.He also said that Cashman said the Yankees "rem
From Richard Justice: Maybe Joe Torre could have closed the deal with CC Sabathia. After all, he has a great reputation with players. Perhaps he could have convinced Sabathia that pitching for the Yankees would be a wonderful experience. If Torre could change Mike Mussina's mind about the Yankees, he might be able to change Sabathia's. Now, as the Yankees nervously await an answer from Sabathia,
In the bottom of the 8th inning, the Baltimore Orioles were leading the New York Yankees 4-3. It was Game 1 of the 1996 ALCS. The Yankee Stadium faithful had come to see their beloved Bronx Bombers play the O's, while mercilessly booing Roberto Alomar, who had spat at an umpire two weeks earlier. They did not come to cheer the name of a preteen Jewish boy who had just experienced a Yankees-themed
From Ed Price:Yankees management will confer Thursday, on the eve of the open free-agency period, to finalize their plans for offseason shopping. "We're going to be ready for Friday (the first day teams can discuss financial terms with outside free agents)," co-chairperson Hal Steinbrenner said today. "Decisions haven't completely been made yet," Steinbrenner said. "We're going to figure out eve

The Yankees are teaming with the NFL's Dallas Cowboys, forming a company that will handle concessions and merchandise sales at their new stadiums. Legends Hospitality Management LLC will offer fans high-quality food, shorter lines and snazzier retailing venues. “Legends was founded on the principle that enhancing the stadium experience will result in a more satisfied fan base,” said Jerry
From Buster Olney (membership required):Nothing said within the Yankees' organizational meetings altered the team's plan to make CC Sabathia an offer they hope he will not (and maybe cannot) refuse -- an offer that might dwarf those of other clubs by a factor of 30 to 40 percent. Call it the New York surcharge, which will probably be necessary if Sabathia will be coaxed to pitch in the big city.He
Joel Sherman has an article today where he sums up the Yankees plans for the offseason. Once of the more frustrating points he makes is the Yankees plans at first base. According to Sherman the Yankees do not intend to pursue Mark Texiera. This is equal to choosing not to sign Beltran when he was available. There are a very limited number of teams to compete with ( maybe just Anaheim and Baltimore

Now that Cash is back for another three years, Yankee management has a lot of work ahead of them. One of the first things they need to do is to sort out the problems with the coaching staff.According to George A. King of the New York Post, one of those possible coaching changes is releasing third base coach Bobby Meacham. Apparently, fans and media members are not the only ones who criticized th
According to this article on Baseball Prospectus (membership required), the Yankees are "backing off the idea of signing Brewers left-hander CC Sabathia." Maybe those rumors about Sabathia not wanting to play in New York and the AL were true after all.The article also states that the Yankees will instead set their sights on Angels' first baseman Mark Teixeira, and will also try to trade Robinson C

Sunday’s game was long – really long. On a sunny, hot day, the Yankees beat the Orioles, 8-7, to complete a three game sweep of the Orioles.

Last night was painful. I went to the ballgame last night, and sitting where I was -- it felt like I was at Yankee Stadium. I must have been one of seven or eight Oriole fans in my section, and by the ninth inning, the sound of Yankee nation was overwhelming that it was almost demoralizing to sit in your home ballpark.It was just as bad -- if not worse than Red Sox Nation coming to town this week.

It’s all good and well you want to show faith in your players, Girardi, but there’s a time and place for confidence-building.

I’m watching the Yankee game. And I’m struck by the ineptitude of the umpires tonight. Arod tries to call time. Yet the ump behind home didn’t notice. Arod then struck out. Some bad balk calls. An ump reversal that led to a Texas rally to take the lead. Just an observation.
Bobby Abreu hit two home runs for three RBI and scored four times as the Yankees crushed the Orioles 13-3 in the Bronx. Alex Rodriguez and newcomer Xavier Nady each had two hits, two runs scored and a pair of RBI. A-Rod added a solo homer as New York avoided a three-game sweep at the hands of the O's. Joba Chamberlain was the winner, striking out six and allowing two runs, one earned, on five

From George King:Carl "American Idle" Pavano is back on the Yankees' radar. Pavano, who has appeared in 19 games in four Yankee seasons and cost them $40 million, is close to going on a minor-league rehab assignment."There's certainly a chance for him to pitch in the majors this year if everything goes right," Brian Cashman said.Could you imagine if he ended helping this team make the postseason?

Dan Graziano of The Star-Ledger reported this morning that the Yankees are still very interested in trading for a left-handed reliever.

Earlier this summer New York Yankees catcher Jose Molina and Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Chris Snyder both suffered groin injuries on the same night. Molina was hit in the groin with a fastball.

From Joel Sherman:The Yanks are working hardest at finding a lefty specialist for their bullpen, with Pittsburgh's Damaso Marte remaining the top priority from the winter until now.

This is the first time the Yanks will play a regu
From Tyler Kepner:OAKLAND, Calif. — A painful swing by the Cleveland Indians’ Víctor Martínez on Wednesday could have significant ramifications for the Yankees. An elbow injury to Martínez all but ended the Indians’ flickering playoff hopes, and will probably lead to a trade of the ace left-hander C. C. Sabathia. If Sabathia is on the trade market, the Yankees will have strong interest. T
From Peter Abraham: Melky Cabrera has been told to stop sliding into first base."That's an aggressive move as a player.
