Thanks to Phil Hughes we apparently have a new argument
Oh, boy! Here we go again. One save, and the calls for Phil Hughes to succeed Mariano Rivera as New York Yankee closer when Mo retires have started. Here's Mark Feinsand of the Daily News Asked if it felt different to get the final three outs - something virtually every pitcher that has ever...
For Yankees, best victory of the season
Easily the best win of the season last night. A 5-4 come-from-behind victory with a three-run rally off the tremendous Joe Nathan. Hopefully, it spurs the Yankees to a terrific homestand. The Yankees are 18-17. Let's hope they can win today and leave the .500 mark behind for good. Brett Gardner...
Off-day thoughts about the New York Yankees
With apologies to SI.com's Peter King, who has made this style his trademark, here are a few things I think about the New York Yankees as we enjoy an off day. I think winning two of three from the Baltimore Orioles is just fine. After a rough week that had everyone, myself included, down in the...
About that 5th slot ...
My colleague 'jscape' wondered Monday if Phil Hughes has a chance to unseat Joba Chamberlain as the New York Yankees No. 5 starting pitcher coming out of Spring Training. In a word, no. Not gonna happen. As 'jscape' mentioned, I too have seen this subject broached by a handful of writers. It's...

He's pitched a handful of innings with terrible velocity and bad mechanics, but in their minds, if he doesn't get going fast, he's in trouble. Tonight...
Around the Yankee Universe, 03.02.09
Another home run Sunday for Brett Gardner? Quick, somebody check his locker for PEDs or his butt for needle marks! I know, I know, that's not really funny. But, two home runs for Gardner in less than a week -- even in Spring Training -- is pretty amazing. Who dared to make an error Sunday to...
Hello to new friends ... and, I hope, some old ones
While we all wait for what Mike Lupica of the NY Daily News is calling "The A-Roid Show" this afternoon I wanted to take a minute to say hello. If you hadn't noticed there is a new name listed among the Pinstripe Alley writers shown at the bottom of the front page. That's me. If you recognize the...
Girardi: 'The process has started'
As many of you know by now, Joe Girardi confirmed on the YES Postgame that tonight was the first step in transitioning Joba Chamberlain to the starting rotation. Girardi later added that this transition has been the plan for months and their recent stretch of terrible baseball had nothing to do...
Statement from Joba Chamberlain
YES Network: "After several difficult days, my father is feeling much better. He is still in the critical care unit of the hospital and more tests await him, but he is off the ventilator and breathing on his own. Each day he's acting more and more like himself, and he's even giving people...
