Yankees-Angels: Requiem for an old rivalry

Josh Benjamin

With so much history between the Yankees and the Dodgers, it’s easy to forget the Angels also play in Los Angeles.

Josh Benjamin

Call it luck or a well-timed rain delay, but we were incorrect in predicting Friday’s NLCS rematch between the Mets and Dodgers.

Aaron Boone is the new Bobby Cox

Josh Benjamin

It’s not easy being New York Yankees manage Aaron Boone. Every Yankees loss, the fans on X/Twitter find a reason to dump on the guy. He left the starting pitcher in for too long.

An open letter to the New York Yankees lineup

Josh Benjamin

Dear New York Yankees hitters, First off, solid start to the season. 19-16 isn’t ideal, but first place in the AL East is first place in the AL East with or without Juan Soto batting in front of Aaron Judge.
