I have been sick with the flu this week as always happens the week after Comicon but now I am healthy enough to start writing again and I figured I would start with talking about the Yankees offseason. Here are my random thoughts about what has happened and what needs to happen this offseason for the New York Yankees.

There will be a game 5. Here are my running thoughts for game 4. If the Yankees make history this will go down in history as the Volpe game.

World Series Game 2

So, I decided I would “live tweet” my thoughts while watching Game 2 of the Worlds Series. Except I didn’t tweet my thoughts, I wrote them down and will be putting them here. I wish I thought of this before Game 1. I’ll probably do this for the rest of the Series. Here’s what went through my head during the game.

Update From Yankee Land

The New York Yankees have clinched a spot in the 2024 MLB playoffs.  As of this writing they have a 5-game lead on Baltimore for the division and their magic number is down to 6.  I am still not sure winning the division is the way to go (taking a week off is a killer in baseball) but, even if they were to be swept by the O’s next week, they pretty much have the division rapped up.  So, let’s head down to Yankee land and see how we got here.

Update From Yankee Land

It has been exactly a month so we are long over due for a trip down to Yankee Land.  A lot has happened since last we visited, some good, some bad.  We will get into all of it but first I would like to personally thank the Baltimore Orioles for not running away with the division.  I can’t say for sure they did not bet on the Yankees to win the East.  As we stand of this writing the Yankees and Baltimore are tied atop the AL East.  The Yankees are 6 games ahead of the Red Sox who are the first team out of the playoffs.  Their Magic number to secure a playoff spot is down to 35.  Let’s get into how we got here.

All Things Yankee

OK so I was going to write my next installment of Down on the Farm but I decided to make this an all-encumbering Yankee post instead.  It’s for two reasons.  1) There is a lot of stuff going on with the Yankees right now that I want to talk about.  And 2) Out of the 7 guys I have been following in the minors, 2 of them are hurt and one of them was called up to the Majors.  So I really only had 4 guys to write about.  I will do that at then end of this column after I cover what else there is to cover.  So, let’s dive in.

Update From Yankee Land

It’s been another fortnight since we last checked in with the New York Yankees.  It’s another Monday off day and there’s a lot going on right now so let’s head back down to Yankee Land and see what’s happening with the Bronx Bombers.  Since we last checked in the Yankees have gone 13-6 and are now 50-24 on the season.  Baltimore refuses to lose baseball games and has moved back into a tie for first place after the Yankees went into Boston and dropped two of three.  The Yankees are tied with Baltimore and the Dodgers for the best record in baseball (the Yanks have played and won 3 more games than the others two) but things are getting a bit shaky for the Boys in Pinstripes.  Let’s dive in.

Update From Yankee Land

With today’s off day, I figured it was a great time to head on down to Yankee Land and catch up with the Bronx Bombers.  Since we last checked in, the Yankees have gone 12-4 and just had a 4-game winning streak snapped by the San Diego Padres.  They now stand at 37-18 and are tied with Baltimore for 1st place in the AL East (remember only thing that matters is the loss column).  The team has been rolling of late.  So lets dive in.

Update from Yankee Land

I feel it is time for another Update from Yankee Land.  Since the last time we looked in on the Bronx Bombers they have gone 8-5 and now stand 11 games over .500.  They are currently on a 4-game winning streak heading into today’s action but have fallen to one game behind the Orioles for first place in the AL East.  They seem to be righting the ship in a lot of areas as they recover from their late April slump.  Let’s look at where things stand 37 games into the season.

It’s time for an Update from Yankee Land.  After their hot start, the Yankees have come down to earth a bit.  Now tied  for first place in the loss column (the only column that matters) with Baltimore for the AL East, the Yankees have some issues that need to be solved.  Lets look at what’s been going well for the Bronx Bombers and what needs to get better if they want to stay atop the standings.
