The Yankees have no choice as they have to clear 40 spots ASAP! Everyone around the game believes this! The only question what […]

The New York Yankees are in major trouble when it comes to starting pitching and the 40 man roster and they are now up against a wall in such a fashion they have no choice BUT to act NOW! Just a few minutes ago the Pittsburgh Pirates traded RHP Joe Musgrove to the San Diego […]

We heard reports this morning that make NO SENSE AT ALL! They were the Yankees shut down the Luis Castillo trade talks after the Reds demanded Gleyber Torres. THAT IS NOT HOW TRADE TALKS WORK! I used to be a AAA GM. It was for 2 seasons but happened to be when the Twins lost […]

The Yankees offseason is finally, FINALLY moving and we know part of what they are up to! 1st off the Yankees finally resigned star 2B DJ LeMahieu for the $15 Million per I said he would get back in November. Total of 6 years $90 Million. 2nd the Yankees have signed 2 time CY Young […]

We are all wondering what on earth is going on with DJ LeMahieu. Why hasn’t he signed yet? Here’s what we know: For starters its know the Yankees made him a offer at least verbally for 4 years and around $80 Million. He has not rejected it but yet to accept it as well. So […]

The Yankees could not have botched the last 10 years worse if they wanted too. Here’s the lessons they must learn and use for the future. The 1st one is I must point out 3 things EVERY title team since 2003 and all but one since 1985 have had with all WS Champions since 1970 […]

Aa major, MAJOR rumbling just happened that may signal the Yankees and Indians have a Lindor trade in the works and maybe already in place. Here is the rumbling which has Yankees nation baffled and confused: How on earth does the Yankees going after OFers AND LET ALONE YASIEL PUIG make ANY SENSE? IT MAKE […]

News is now out and confirmed that the Dodgers and DJ LeMahieu have mutual interest. Here is what it mans: Yes the Dodgers are interested in Dj LeMahieu. Yes Dj LeMahieu shares the sentiment. If this happens the Yankees will instantly grab SS Francisco Lindor, and a RHP either Carlos Carrasco or Zack Plesac (WHICH […]

Its far, FAR to quiet around the Yankees right now. Here’s what we know: For starters they are continuing to work hard on resigning DJ and they firmly believe they will keep him. There is a growing number of industry sources stunned he has not signed the Yankees deal yet. They know the $$$ he […]

Trevor Bauer’s agent Rachel Luba said today during a podcast that Bauer is getting very close to signing with a unspecified team. The question is which team is he signing with? Here’s Bauer’s agent’s statement: SO where is he going? For starters we know the Padres are out as they have shifted to chasing Yu […]

As Free Agency moves on more and more is coming out about Trevor Bauer’s FA. Including where he is headed. So yesterday Trevor Bauer again posted a picture of him self in YANKEES GEAR for the 7th time this offseason. WHY? Here’s the tweet: Is he playing games with a team he has been doing […]

The Yankees offseason this year makes no sense at all. There’s so many different rumors abounding. Nothing seems to make any sense! 1st there were rumors the Yankees would not spend and only wanted DJ back. CASHMAN EMPHATICALLY DESTROYED THESE LIES! Take a look: There are 5 tams over $210 Million 1st tax threshold topped […]

So several minutes ago a weird tweet went out fro John Heyman stating the Yankees had agreed to a deal with ACE RHP Trevor Bauer and then was deleted it within a minute. I have no clue why. Bauer retweeting it seems fake as it never showed on his twitter page and his agent Rachel […]

As this offseason moves on its becoming more and more apparent what the Yankees plans are. DJ, p[itching, fixing defense, and LH power bats. So what exactly are they working on right now? Cashman has made it more then clear over the last few days that DJ LeMahieu is holding everything up. Once he agrees […]

Today Yankees GM Brian Cashman took some time AWAY from working on the Yankees roster moves to discuss things with The Yankees TV station the Yes Network. Lets start with the Yankees payroll. Cashman just nuked that fake belief the Yankees won’t go beyond $210 Million with this emphatic statement: The Cubs and Dodgers among […]

So we have a few new Yankees updates to digest. Lets explore them: More and more information is leaking out from the Yankees front offices as the offseason moves on as per normal happenings. The 1st as Michael Kay EMPHLATICALLY emphasized is there’s no scenario in which the Yankees do not resign STAR 2B D.J. […]

I am finally back! My Website is back! So freakin excited! Lets get cooking! Here’s the absolute latest on the Yankees from their GM Brian Cashman himself: Lets start with what is on everyone’s minds. DJ LeMahieu: Brian Cashman all but guaranteed Dj is staying with the Yankees confirming he is working all out with […]

Here’s the very latest I am hearing on the Yankees offseason moves: Lets start with DJ LeMahieu. Here’s the latest: Its down to the same spot the Zack Britton talks were 2 years ago. 1 year or 2 more then the Yankees offered. Zack Britton wanted 5 years but settled for 4 and got 4. […]

So RHP Trevor Bauer said some very interesting things about possibly joining the Yankees and their ACE RHP Garrit Cole in the Yankees rotation just a few minutes ago. He was doing a presser after winning the 2020 NL Cy Young Award which was 100% deserved! Here’s the 1st things he said: Clear as day […]

With the Francisco Lindor to the Yankees trade talks and rumors fly around there are also lies out there! Lets dispel them now! Michael Kay of the Yes Network was talking a bout this and make the brain dead mistake of saying that the inevitable (Reason why below) Yankees trade for Lindor would cost them […]

We just got a gargantuan Francisco Lindor update that confirms everything I have reported! Further confirms he is being traded to the Yankees. Here is the update: Again this 100% confirms to me and everyone the Yankees are 100% trading for star SS Francisco Lindor! They will also 100% resign DJ LeMahieu! This further confirms […]

MLB Network just dropped a MAJOR, MAJOR Francisco Lindor trade update. Lets take a look at what it means. 1st off here’s the clip with the update from MLB Network: YES, YES MLB NETWORK LITERALLY JUST PREDICTED STAR SS FRANCISCO LINDOR WILL BE TRADED TO THE YANKEES JUST AS I PREDICTED AND REPORTED! This is […]

So as we get further and further into FA with no moves done here’s why the Yankees HAVE to sign Trevor Bauer and how they do it: Lets start with the payroll situation. It was at $248 Million at the end of the season. As soon as FA started it fell $124.9 Million. Form Tana […]

As me move through FA is more apparent then ever that star SS Francisco Lindor will be traded by the Indians. As such here’s what we know: For starters the Dodgers are 100% out on Lindor! The Betts deal including the Price contract ends any chance they even enter the talks WHICH THEY HAVE NOT […]

As we move into FA in a few minutes here’s what to expect the Yankees to do. 1st lets start with the fact its going to be a slow start to FA according to industry sources. They expect teams to wait tot see the final luxury tax # and revenue #’s before doing anything. The […]

As we move closer to FA it has become more apparent then ever the Yankees are 100% making a change at catcher. I was told earlier today the Yankees are 100% in on the following catchers respectively: Yadier Molina(FA) J.T. Realmuto(FA) James McCann(FA) Salvador Perez(trade) The Yankees want a new new catcher after Sanchez complete […]

As we move closer and closer to FA(Less then 2 weeks away as its 5 days after the end of the World Series) there are all kinds of rumors as to what the Yankees will do out right now. Lets take a look at what we know! Brian Cashman, Aaron Boone, and Hal Steinbrenner in […]

So over the last 20 hours Hal Steinbrenner, Aaron Boone, and Brian Cashman had the season wrap up and offseason outlook Press Conferences. Lets dive in and break them down: Lets starts with Boone’s Presser. His what short and to the point. The Yankees 100% want DJ LeMahieu back and will do what it takes […]

So the umpires just screwed the Yankees out of the post season in the most blatantly rigged series in MLB history! Yankees sweep it if not for the umpires blatantly rigging it! The rigging was this: The Yankees hitters in this series had 297 pitches OUTSIDE THE ZONE called strikes on them NO TEAM CAN […]

Last night Jordan Montgomery, Chad Green, Zack Britton, and Aroldis Chapman pitched amazingly well and used HR’s from Voit, and Torres to win 5-1 thus forcing game 5 of the ALDS! After finishing off the Rays in game 4, Yankees 1B Luke Voit, author of a 458 foot monster HR, had emphatic words of confidence! […]

AS I go through Yankees twitter and Yankees nation on FB I am hearing interesting things. 1st off I can emphatically ay Yankees fans are defeated and flat out pissed off at the Yankees Brass outside Cashman who has been against all these changes! Here’s some thoughts from my Good Friend Felix on this: I […]

About a half hour ago, ACE RHP Trevor Bauer sent a signal to the Yankees that could not have been more clear! He 100% wants to be a Yankee! He will handle the media pressure! Just take a look at his tweet: His intentions could not be more clear! He wants to be and will […]

Yikes what a bad game last night. Most notably by the must be fired umpire C.B. Buckner. The Yankees only lost due to how horrendous Buckner was. Here’s a look: THAT’S THE WORST POST SEASON PEFORMENCE IN HISTORY FOR A MLB UMPIRE AT HP! Almost solely against the Yankees. He single handedly rigged the game. […]

Francisco Lindor is 100% done with the Cleveland Indians! He’s 100% forcing his way out the door and 100% YES to the New York Yankees this coming off season! Read this article as it spells it out: The extension talks with the Indians broke down over a year ago and have never been picked back […]

WOW WHAT AN AMAZING GAME 1! 4 HR’s including a Stanton Grand Salami and and emphatic win to take the 1-0 ALDS lead! Cole was great again going 6 dominant innings allowing 3 runs on 2 BS cheating HR’s (I say this as both came on pitches or fly balls statcast said could not be […]

The Yankees and Rays both swept their way here in far different ways. The Yankees blew their way here with a unstoppable offensive attack! Literally every hitter contributed! They are a unbelievably focused group! https://www.mlb.com/news/yankees-sweep-indians-clinch-alds-berth The Rays got here through their grossly overrated pitching. Keep in mind the Jays hitters are brand new to the […]

The Yankees just made history putting up 10+ runs in back to back WC round games becoming the ONLY TEAM EVER TO DO THAT! In doing this they swept the Indians and set up a date in SAN DIEGO, YES SAN DIEGO with the TB Rays in the ALDS. This has me very excited. The […]

So as this season winds down lets take a look around the Yankees and what to expect for the post season and Offseason! Lets start with the post season. So the Twins won and the White Sox lost yesterday which changes everything. The Yankees lost no ground on getting the 4th seed. Their WC round […]

As we draw close to the end of the 2020 season, the season awards are now being debated. I will do my Awards now with an in depth look at the MVP. Look below the break downs for the award winners in bold. There’s really only 1 choice for the AL MVP and that is […]

WOW are the Yankees ever roaring right now to the tune of 33 runs in the last 2 games! Just a 16.5 RPG average… They couldn’t be hotter if they wanted to be! Outside of this is the rumblings still burning every, VERY hot! The 1st I will talk about is Michael Brantley to the […]

Yankees RHP Prospect Deivi Garcia has jumped onto the scene in a major, MAJOR way! Deivi Garcia just threw a masterpiece of 7 IP, 2 run ball. I CANNOT WAIT FOR HIS NEXT OUTING! That’s 2 6 IP+ 2 ER , or 0 BB less starts ALREADY! Unbelievable! Also take note of the incredibly low […]

I don’t know who needs to know this but Aaron Boone is not calling the shots! He’s not making pitching changes or anything! The only reason the Yankees hired Aaron Boone was he made it clear hw would be their ‘yes man’! He was hired to be a face, a place holder while Randy Levine […]

Its something that Yankees fans hate. The Yankees have not had a team captain since the greatest SS ever Derek Jeter retired. The question is why? Well they have only had 2 in the last 50 years in Jeter and Manningly (Note: I do not count Guidry and Randolph a they were do captains). As […]

The Yankees have some major, MAJOR holes. Here’s the way to fix them and get this team going again: Lets start with the rotation. 1st I send Jordan Montgomery to the alternate site and give his spot in the rotation to RHP Deivi Garcia 2nd I Move Paxton to the Pen and give his spot […]

It was a bizarre trade deadline for the Yankees. It made no sense…. Lets go ahead and dive in! Cashman himself confirmed he had talks for every player rumored but nothing ‘materialized’… Such a odd statement. Players the Yankees were after went cheaper then expected. Others, IE Clevenger, went far more expensive then expected. Good […]

We learned today the 2 tams the Yankees have been working the hardest on trades with are nearing trades for said players. No not the Mets. The Indians and Brewers! Lets start with the Indians. 1st Yes the Indians are confirmed to have made Lindor available: We know the Yankees already asked about him! STAY […]

We got a few major surprises today when the Yankees lineup was announced. They were very telling. Here’s the lineup: My 1st question is WHERE IS HICKS? Why the crap is Gardner playing at all? Florial playing means either he or Hicks is about to get traded. Most likely Hicks to the Indians in a […]

The Yankees need to face the facts. GARDNER IS DONE!  Gardner is flat out terrible this year. The Yankees already have his replacement in Frazier, Tauchman, AND Florial. Brett Gardner is so bad he can’t touch rookies crap stuff. He’s 2 for his last 81 now… Gardner’s issue are not just tweak and they go […]

So yesterday we got a few updates about the Josh Hader situation so lets discuss them and try to make sense of them. The 1st update is while he is not being shopped the Brewers are 100% listening and will move him if the right offer comes along. Notice a little better than the package […]

So the Indians announced today that RHP Mike Clevenger is going to pitch tomorrow evening and thus they will lose a year of control of him… WAIT WHAT??? Here is the announcement: The 1st question I had was why not RHP Zack Plesac? They can’t lose any control by having him pitch. Why have him […]

The Trade Deadline is less then a week away and here is the absolute latest: SS Francisco indor+ RHP Mike Clevenger: I am told this morning the Yankees and Indians are working on this trade that could include Brad Hand. Yes Zack Plesac’s name has com up in the talks but the Yankees are mainly […]

So several things have happened the last several days that are major signs Josh Hader is about to get traded. For no explainable reason he hasn’t pitched in nearly a week while missing 3, THREE save opportunities during a Brewers 6 game losing streak. The Brewers are plummeting fast! 2nd He hasn’t even been seen […]

I have been doing a ton of thinking about the Yankees 2021 rotation lately and what it will look like. We only know 1 sure fire lock at this point. 2 if you include RHP Clarke Schmidt. 3. IF, and only IF LHP Jordan Montgomery and really get it going the rest of this year […]

Gleyber Torres has been anything but good at ShortStop. Is his play now forcing the Yankees to trade for SS Francisco Lindor WHO IS AVAILABLE? I have to think yes Torres horrid play at SS is forcing the Yankees hand here. Torres has already committed more errors this year in 22 games then all of […]

So, we are quickly approaching the 2020 August 31st 4pm EST Trade Deadline. Here is the latest about the Yankees: SS Francisco Lindor: Ken Rosenthal put out an article in which he says the Yankees are targeting 6 players this trade deadline including being 100% after lifetime Yankees fan Francisco Lindor after extension talks broke […]

So with the last few days I broke the news of a early season blockbuster between the Yankees and Phillies that I have been told will happen. Let’s take a deep dive into it. Let me start by saying I am going off real info! I am not guessing here! 1st I received this message […]

FINALLY! Yankees manager Aaron Boone put out a great, GREAT lineup today. I would’ve changed it a little bit though. Here’s the lineup: I absolutely love it.. There’s no hole for Snell to aim at. HOWEVER… As I said I would have done it a bit different… Like this: 2B DJ LeMahieu RF Aaron Judge […]

The Yankees looked complete with no weaknesses going into the season… That is until a few MAJOR ones have exploded in their face. GLARING WEAKNESS #1: The Yankees starting rotation is a major liability outside ACE Garrit Cole any maybe LHP Jordan Montgomery. For LHP Jordan Montgomery he has a HUUUUUGE start tonight to prove […]

We are seeing a unbelievably abnormal amount of pitchers going down with injuries. The only possible solution is the pitchers being on PEEDS. From Luis Severino of the Yankees: To Chris Sale of the Red Sox: To The Mets Noah Syndergaard: To the Astros Justin Verladner: To the Braves Mike Soroka: To another Yankees righty […]

As the MLB Trade Deadline is coming up at the end of August, teams are already quietly scouting players and getting ready for trades. Here is my list of 10 trades that absolutely must happen. I will put each trade in respective order from 1-10. I will then give my predicted destinations and why and […]

The New York Mets team is such a mess… Yoenis Cespedes just opted out without even telling the team. He literally just packed up and left… Jed Lowrie’s career is over due to injuries… Topping off the bad day for the Mets was the Mets suffering their 6th straight loss… AS SUCH… Jacob DeGrom needs […]

As Gio Urshella continues to play amazingly well for the Yankees he is setting something up almost no Yankee fans sees coming. He’s setting the Yankees up as the PERFECT TRADE PARTNER for the Rockies and the inevitable Nolan Arenado trade. Remember the Rockies demanded a REPLACEMENT 3B, Catcher, RH hitting OF and young pitching […]

Yankees LHP Jordan Montgomery was flat out AMAZING in leading the Yankees to last Night’s 5-1 win over the Red Sox. The 6’6″ Lefty was so good in fact he’s 1-0 with a 1.59 ERA with this 5 2/3 IP amazing outing. All Yankees fans were amazed. He K’d 4 and walked just 1, which […]

So last night J.A. Happ lead the Yankees against the O’s, it was the bats however that got the win and lead the team to the win not Happ. Happ looked terrible. I MEAN TERRIBLE! Could only go 4 and barely 4 IP while letting the terrible O’s score 4 runs. What happened? His FB […]

Brett Gardner MUST be DFA’d ASAP! He’s nothing more than a late inning defensive replacement/pinch runner. His bat in completely GONE! There’s no speed in it. He can’t hit AA pitchers right now. It’s so bad numerous Yankees fans including this one are demanding his benching: and this one… and this one… and this one… […]

The latest time evr for opening day but its what everyone needed. A Yankees win against one of the best pitchers in the game and the defending WS champions. A Dodgers win against a TERRIBLE Giants team and what their struggling to get it means. The Yankees beat Max Scherzer and his defending Champion Nationals […]

Startling news shook the baseball world today. Domingo German retired from baseball but is it official? No word yet… I checked with my sources and can confirm it is a retirement but not even the Yankees know if its official or just for this shortened season. Here’s another article talking about this: So the question […]

I have been hearing for about a week know a very interesting Mookie Betts Rumor. I have been trying to decide whether to post about it or not. We’ll here it goes… Keep in mind 2 thi9ngs. Stanton has a opt o0ut clause to make a decision on within the next few months. Mookie Betts […]

There’s a debate everywhere in baseball of who is the better pitcher Cole or DeGrom. Time to end it! We’ll go stat by stat and prove Cole is the far better pitcher! Lets start with ERA: Cole’s ERA in 2019 was: 2.50 DeGroms ERA in 2019 was: 2.43 That’s close enough to be a wash. […]

People like and even love using Metrics but never even look into the fact of how rigged Metrics are. Here’s how I know for a fact they are rigged to whomever is using them and to make Mike Trout look 100’s of times better then he really is. The one I will talk most about […]

News is breaking yesterday and today the Yankees are going to be signing 2 young INF’s by the names of Roderick Arias and Diego nBenitez. The question of many is who is he and why are the Yankees locks to sign him? Lets take a look! Roderick Arias (AIR-EE-AS) is a 5’11 201 pound middle […]

The Yankees schedule was released today as with the rest of baseball. Lets take a look at it and then give new Yankees and AL East record predictions. Here’s a look at the Yankees 2020 Schedule: As I review it here is what I noticed: Against the Red Sox: 7 of the 10 games against […]

Just a few minutes ago Joel Sherman tweeted his new article stating the Indians nare 100% trading Lindor by this years August 31st trade deadline according to his sources. This is major, MAJOR news! Here is the article: He mentions they have decided to get talent for him while they can. As such he’s basically […]

Ever since I started on this journey as a sports writer (Thanks to my friend Felix Pantaleon), people continually badger me and fake fun of me for identical mistakes that guys like Adam Shefter, Ken Rosenthal, Jeff Passan, etc made when they 12st started. Then they started noticing me being right time after time after […]

So earlier today The Yankees GM Brian Cashman announced confirmation of my reports over the last few days that all Yankees are healthy going into the 2020 shortened season. He mentioned Aaron Judge by name saying yes he’s good to go! Here’s the news from The YES Networks Jack Curry: SO STanton confirmed as Opening […]

As I have been going through the Yankees 60 man player pool I have noticed several things. Let’s dig in and take a look at them! As you know all 30 teams had to select 60 players for them to use this year. Here’s where to find the Yankees: I will look at them position […]

I have heard a lot of BS of how the Yankees handle Free agency and trades over the last few years and how they will approach it. Here’s the true stories of several big names and what really happened. Both trade rumors and FA rumors. Let’s clarify what happened. I will use info from several […]

This is a odd topic. The MLB changed balls to ones that had seems even with the leather of the ball. As such it greatly reduced drag and increased ball flight up to 50′ depending the arch of the ball. (NOTE: Please donate at Cashapp: TopSportsMind to keep my amazing content coming.) This caused MASSIVE […]
