Following a loss at home to the Oakland Athletics, the New York Yankees would travel to Milwaukee to take on the first-place Brewers. Both teams are in heavily competitive divisions that have seen two teams take off, battling for possession of first place in what should be two great division races.
Joey Ortiz delivered a walk-off single with one out in the 11th inning, giving the Milwaukee Brewers a 7-6 victory over the visiting New York Yankees on Friday in the opener of a three-game series.

The Yankees just can’t get quite enough out of the series opener
This was a very strange one.
The Yankees hit three home runs, the kind of power output we’ve been waiting for for some time, and still lost by one. Giancarlo Stanton had a big pinch-hit RBI double, and it was ultimately meaningless. New York tapped a guy who’s been cut three times before May to deliver an extra-innings win, and dear reader, he did not. Milwaukee took the series...

Two of the best fastballs in baseball face off in a series opening Friday night.
After that highly mediocre four-game set against the Athletics at home, hopefully a seven-game road trip starting in Milwaukee is what the Yankees need to get their bats going again. They’ll kick off this series against the Brewers facing one of the game’s best sinkerballers, but sending a pretty sparky righty to face off with him.
Luis Gil gets the ball for the...
Jasson Dominguez is one of the most exciting young players in the game right now, and when the Yankees called him up in September of last season it created quite a media storm.

Answering the latest questions in PSA’s mailbag.
Good afternoon everyone, it’s time to dive back into the mailbag and answer some of your questions. Remember to send in your questions for our weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com.
The idiot that said, “Harper is coming” asks: The Yankees have lost eight games as of today 4/23. Four of those eight losses were via shutout. I believe the ridiculously bad offense of...
The New York Yankees have been eagerly anticipating the return of veteran infielder DJ LeMahieu. However, a recent injury setback has increased pressure on the rest of the infield to enhance their performances.
Jose Trevino was supposed to become the backup catcher for the Yankees, but so far he’s impressed with his bat after an ice-cold start. His showing in Houston left fans disgruntled with his standing on the team, but since the slow start to the season, he’s been a force for this offense.

Schmidt halted the A’s in their tracks in the first and was rewarded in the bottom half by Aaron Judge’s two-run blast.
Welcome back to Sequence of the Week! In my inaugural entry in the series that my former colleague Malachi introduced last year, I went over Ian Hamilton’s clutch rally-killing strikeout of Justin Turner in the seventh inning of the Yankees’ 6-4 win over the Blue Jays on April 17th. The punchout turned the tide of momentum in...

Assessing two Yankees prospects amidst very different starts to their 2024 seasons.
Scouting is a continual process of evaluation. Yesterday’s report is yesterday’s news. Every day presents a new opportunity for a player to showcase a new talent, ability, or flaw I’ve yet to observe. One of the clearest examples of this can be found in Astros prospect Joey Loperfido, who was consistently ranked in the back half of Top-10 Astros...

In honor of the NFL Draft last night, we’re pondering where the Yanks would play on the gridiron.
We’re entering that month-or-so long window where North American sports are hitting their apex. Just this week alone, we saw multiple amazing NBA playoff games between the Knicks and 76ers, a thrilling Nuggets buzzer-beater over the Lakers, and a chaotic Carolina Hurricanes comeback over the Islanders (my apologies to all seven Islanders/Yankees...
The New York Yankees‘ offense has seen its ups and downs in recent days, capturing wins in the middle two games of a four-game series against the Oakland Athletics but falling short in Thursday’s matchup with a score of 3-1.

Houston dropped one to the Cubs, while the Blue Jays got stymied by the Royals and the weather.
Thursday night saw the Yankees wrap up their series against the Athletics, and not in great fashion. They had the bases loaded and nobody out in the first inning, only to squander that chance. That ended up becoming a theme, as the Yankees stranded a bunch of baserunners in a 3-1 loss to Oakland.
Besides that, it was a bit of a quiet day around baseball....
Clayton Beeter was acquired by the Yankees in a trade with the Dodgers, part of the deal that sent struggling outfielder Joey Gallo to Los Angeles. Something that has always bugged the former second-round pick is the lack of command, making most scouts believe that he’ll end up being a reliever in the long run.
Entering 2024, the New York Yankees were brimming with high expectations, poised for a season of promise. As the warm breeze of spring transitions into the heat of summer, the question arises: could general manager Brian Cashman bolster the Bombers’ pitching arsenal by setting his sights on Paul Blackburn of the Oakland Athletics?

Two division (co-)leaders playing in opposite directions match up as the team travels to Milwaukee for a three-game set.
The Yankees had a very middling homestand after suffering their first series loss of the season. They won two out of three against the Rays in a narrow fashion, and when given a layup matchup against Oakland directly after them they continued to play inconsistently, especially on offense. The end result was a split of the four-game...
The New York Yankees employ a list of arms that are expected to see the big league stage at some point this season. With a decent spring training combined with a phenomenal split-season in 2023, right-hander Will Warren is on the list for promotion. Warren, 24, was selected in the eighth round of the 2021 MLB Draft.
After winning five of seven games on the road, the Milwaukee Brewers will turn to right-hander Colin Rea in an effort to keep their surge going when they return home to open a three-game series Friday night against the New York Yankees.

The Yankees are off to Wisconsin for an interleague series against an old AL East foe, the Milwaukee Brewers. Has it been, oh, almost Aaron Judge’s entire life since the Brew Crew were in the same division, let alone the same league? Sure, but the Yankees do have a cool history with Milwaukee anyway, which dates all the way back to when the Braves played there and they met in...
