Yankees News

The New York Yankees are reeling from an Aaron Judge injury that has him day-to-day with a rib cage bone bruise, a troubling development for a team that relies heavily on his bat. After a promising run of 6-1 over the past week, the Yankees' depth was laid bare in their recent loss to the Guardians, where Cam Schlittler faltered, reminding us that even with a stellar rotation, one bad start can unravel the offense. Meanwhile, top prospect Carlos Lagrange is being shifted to the bullpen, a sign the Yankees are looking to bolster their relief efforts as they prepare for the trade deadline. With the team sitting at 36-23, the urgency to find a right-handed catcher and solidify the lineup is palpable, otherwise, this promising season could slip away in a hurry.

Yankees can’t recover from Cam Schlittler’s bad start, lose to Guardians
This was a long, ugly game that kind of confirmed all our priors about the 2026 Yankees. The starting rotation is dynamite but if a guy has an offday, the offense isn’t really deep enough to pick him up, they rely a little too much on one guy. The bullpen shows signs of something special […]
