Michael Kay’s temper has generated another unflattering headline

How did Yankees, Guardians match up in 2023?

Josh Benjamin

Through injuries, rain, and Aaron Boone’s bullpen management, the Yankees broke out of their funk and won a series. Even better, it was against the rival Guardians. Three competitive games, all in which the winning team came from behind. Don’t let the standings fool you, nor New York taking the season series, 4-2. There’s still … Continued

Michael King is the closer Yankees need

Josh Benjamin

The 2023 MLB season is a month old and in a highly unprecedented turn of events, the Yankees do not have a closer. No, seriously. It’s true. It was a good run of Mariano Rivera, David Robertson, Andrew Miller, Aroldis Chapman and then Clay Holmes last season. Holmes even earned an All-Star selection thanks to … Continued

Yankees-Guardians takeaways: A much-needed series win

Josh Benjamin

Through the rain, more injuries, and playing .500 ball through the first month of the season, and a Jose Trevino walk-off, the Yankees finally won a series again.

Mike Francesa rips into Yankees: ‘Bad-looking ballclub’

James Kratch

The Yankees are banged up right now. But Mike Francesa does not believe injuries are the reason for the Bombers’ recent swoon. Nor does he think everything will be fixed once those sidelined stars return. “The Yankees aren’t great when they’re healthy,” the WFAN legend said on his latest BetRivers podcast. “When they’re healthy, there … Continued

Yankees’ Aaron Boone is better than this, and he knows it

Josh Benjamin

Someone alert #YankeesTwitter, because we’re about to have a serious talk about manager Aaron Boone. And no, we aren’t asking that he be fired.

Bullpen management has kinda/sorta always been his greatest weakness, but what happened in Monday’s 3-2 loss to the Cleveland … Continued

Knicks don’t need major adjustments after Game 1 loss to Heat

Danny Small

It wasn’t a surprise to see the New York Knicks beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, but the absolute dominance with which it happened raised eyebrows. Now, what the Miami Heat did to Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks was something else entirely. After the first round and given the history of this rivalry, all eyes were … Continued

Josh Benjamin

Game 1 of the East Semifinals between the New York Knicks and Miami Heat reignited the longstanding rivalry from the ’90s.

A crazy thought on why Yankees keep getting hurt

James Kratch

The Yankees’ injury issues are front and center again after Aaron Judge left Thursday night’s win over the Rangers with a hip issue. Judge told reporters he is not concerned.
