Forum: New York Yankees

Compliments of Pinstripe Alley. Very interesting point: http://www.pinstripealley.com/

There is a big discussion about whether Yankees fans would boo a Yankee. I indicated that Ricky Henderson and Randy Keisler are two whom I would like to have booed, but I simply kept quiet. Is there or has there been any Yankee that you WOULD boo?

I caught an interesting "Antiques Roadshow" tonight from Atlantic City, NJ. There was a woman named Nancy Day who won a contest in 1963 to be the "ball boy" for a day at YS. She won the competition and when the Yankees called - her mother revealed to them that the winner was actually a girl. ...

Hate them all you want, but the New York Yankees have won 27 World Series championships. That’s 17 more than the next best organization (St. Louis), and have claimed 13 additional pennants that failed to produce a title. In short, the Yankees are in a class all by themselves. And much like no...

Does anyone have any advice, secrets, or tips you can share regarding your experience at the Yankees spring training complex that make it more enjoyable? Anything about trying to get up close and personal to the players for pictures with the players and autograph collectors, etc.? Thanks in advance...

Thought I'd pass this along, a 2009 Highlight reel I whipped up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFkCAi5LwiA

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/bba_yankees_sheppard What a career this man had.

I've been searching around looking for the logo set that the Yankees have been using since they won the WS this year, and can't seem to find them all anywhere. Can anyone here help me out? Thanks a lot in advance.

A-jax and Coke, gone. Melky gone. Vizcaino gone. For? Javier Vasquez? Granderson? Really? Am I the only one who suddenly feels like it's the early 2000's all over again? The Championship is won so let's start the purge. You did a great job for, now get out. Matsui signs with Anaheim, Damon is on...

IMO as of right now the Yankees will have a weaker lineup in 2010 than they did in 2009. Lets face it Damon/Matsui is a better combo than Johnson/Grandy. Yes I do understand the defensive liabilities of the Dam/Mat, but I am talking strictly offensive production. I dont see them going into the...

As per Ken Davidoff's twitter. I would have preferred Matsui at $6.5 M . . . but $5.5 M for Nick Johnson isn't bad at all.

Boras compares Damon to Derek, eyes long-term deal I've provided link at the bottom, but here are Bora's Top 3 Reasons for a Damon long term deal and top dollar: 1. By hitting second, Damon not only thrived, but enabled Jeter to have one of his best seasons. Boras said the Yanks should look...

Replacement Level's 2010 CAIRO projections can be found here. This explanation is offered, as well: This is the first (of many, I presume) analyses that SG will run, but I find it interesting to peruse nonetheless.

Does anyone have an idea based on what information is out there as to whether the Yankees will re-sign Johnny Damon?

The first step is complete for free agent left-hander Andy Pettitte's return to the world champion New York Yankees next season as they seek to repeat. Pettitte, who has indicated a preference to play for the Yankees if he came back for a 16th season, has decided to pitch in 2010, major league...

Tommy Henrich, the OFer/1Bman dubbed "Old Reliable" and "The Clutch" for his propensity of delivering key hits, and who played for the Bronx Bombers from 1937-50, died today at age 96. Tommy was also for years the last living teammate of Lou Gehrig. He will be definitely missed. The only other...
