 By now, you all know the Yankees have had many great baseball players suit up in pinstripes. This years team is no different.
While we can talk about the terrific last minute start by Dustin Moseley, I'd rather take a look at some of the milestones that were set by a trio of current great Yankees players.
The milestones continue to mount for Yankees shortstop and captain Derek Jeter. It almost se...

 The performance by Dustin Moseley last night against the Boston Red Sox reminded me of test taking. Remember when you would study for weeks in advance of a big test and when it came down to actually complete said test, your mind would go blank? Remember those tests when you crammed to study the night before, keeping the information fresh while also not allowing you to overthink it?
Generally thos...

 The New York Yankees enter the second half of the 2010 MLB season with the best record in the league. Not to much to complain about other than the inconsistent bullpen.
Throughout the first half the Yankees received the usual production from players like CC Sabathia, Andy Pettitte, Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, and Jorge Posda. They also got some surprise performances from guys like Nick Swisher a...

 Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira has continued to struggled this season. Typically a slow starter that struggles through rough April's, Teixeira usually gets it going by this point in the season.
As of this morning (June 8, 2010), Teixeira is batting just .210 this season, barely hanging above the Mendoza Line.
Teixiera continues to stay calm and focused while not getting concerned about his ...

 Another week goes by in Battle of the Blogs Fantasy Baseball, and another losing record for Double G Sports. My team just can not seem to put it all together and get it going.
Overall for the season I am still holding onto a winning record at 90-84-6. That puts me in third place in the Willie Mays Division but would not be good enough to make the playoffs if the season were to end today.
Last we...

 My Double G Sports fantasy baseball team endured yet another losing week in Battle of the Blogs this past week. It was a bit of a role reversal however. Usually it is my pitching staff that gives me trouble. This week, it was the lineup.
The Double G Sports pitching staff performed well. Starters Joe Saunders, Javier Vazquez, and newly acquired Jeff Francis all got a quality start and wins. Vazqu...

 Interleague play gets underway today in Major League Baseball. The New York Mets and New York Yankees get together for the first of two series this season. The Subway Series may have lost some of its luster the past couple seasons, but both teams have a lot riding on this series. Starting tonight, the teams will play a three game series at Citi Field.
The Mets, 20-22 overall, have been s...

 It was a rough night to be a pitcher in the Bronx last night. Nine pitchers in total were used in the contest between the Yankees and Red Sox. Of the nine, five gave up runs in the 11-9 Yankees win.
The starters were not good. Boston starter Daisuke Matsuzaka had a bad first inning in which the Yankees scored five runs. The right lasted 4.2 innings, giving up nine hits. Three of those nine were d...
