The New York Yankees were on the verge of bolstering their infield with the return of veteran DJ LeMahieu, who began a rehab assignment on Tuesday evening. LeMahieu was slated to play fewer than five games with the Somerset team in AA before rejoining the Yankees next week. However, this timeline may be delayed due to a recent setback.

The status of Gerrit Cole is one of the most important topics surrounding the Yankees and has been since it was reported he would undergo an MRI on his pitching elbow. While it was revealed that there was no tear in the UCL, there was still inflammation in a nerve, requiring him to be shut down for 1-2 months. His visit with Dr. Neal ElAttrache resulted in a si ..read more

The New York Yankees have a problem at first base, but the Chicago Cubs might have given them a readily available option to solve it. While it’s too early to declare a player’s season “over”, the signs from Anthony Rizzo thus far are discouraging, as the left-handed veteran has not done much to impress with his batted ball quality. Since going on the IL with a concussion last season, Rizzo has the lowest SLG% in baseball (.245), but recently DFA’d infielder Garrett Cooper could provide an ice-cold Yankee lineup with the exact boost they ..read more

DJ LeMahieu will finally begin his rehab assignment after it was delayed, with the Yankees announcing formally on their X (formerly known as Twitter) page. A foul ball struck the 35-year-old infielder in the right foot, causing an undisplaced fracture there which has sidelined him for the start of the season. With the Yankees nearly done with their April schedule, he ..read more

The New York Yankees haven’t had many reasons to frown in the early part of the 2024 MLB season, and that’s thanks in part to the job that one of their star young pitchers is doing on the mound. RHP Luis Gil has stuck out through four starts as a promising talent who’s been able to deliver steady production for the ball club.

The Yankees‘ offense has been unusually quiet in recent days, and star slugger Juan Soto isn’t to blame. Instead, Aaron Judge has become more of a liability than an asset for the first time in years, and starting first baseman Anthony Rizzo has experienced a dramatic drop in performance.

Coming off a season marred by serious concussion symptoms, which led the Bombers to end his 2023 campaign prematurely following a strong start, Rizzo’s 2024 performance has unfortunately been among the worst of his ..read more

The New York Giants currently hold the No. 6 pick in this year’s draft, positioning them to land an elite wide receiver prospect in the first round. However, which wide receiver prospect the Giants could take will be determined by the number of quarterbacks that get selected within the top five picks.
A potential run on quarterbacks at the top of the draft could have a domino effect on the rest of the first round. There is a chance that quarterbacks could be taken with each of the first four picks in the draft. In that scenario, th ..read more
