Via Bronx Baseball Daily  |  April 24, 2012
As scheduled, Michael Pineda had a dye contrast MRI done today as doctors took a closer look at his shoulder that has kept him out since March.

From Mark Feinsand:Michael Pineda was examined by Yankees team physician Dr. Chris Ahmad Tuesday, undergoing a dye-contrast MRI on his injured right shoulder.

Warning! Do not trade minor league pitching depth

Via Bronx Baseball Daily  |  April 22, 2012
The Yankees have a plethora of pitching options at the MLB level and a superfluous amount of “arms in waiting” in Triple-A ready to pitch in the major leagues at the drop of a hat. Fans see this with the impending vacancy in right field, and feel the Yankees should deal from a position of strength and go after a cost controlled, young stud right fielder. I’m here to tell...

Via Sliding Into Home  |  April 25, 2012
Following tonight's loss in Arlington, Joe Girardi announced that the Yankees will have their normal rotation after Thursday’s off day and will not be skipping Freddy Garcia.

Yankees hold Pudge in highest esteem

Via Fox Sports Southwest  |  April 23, 2012
ARLINGTON, Texas There's no doubt about how Ranger fans fell about now retired catcher Ivan "Pudge" Rodriguez. That affinity for the 10-time Gold Glove backstop was more than apparent before Monday's series opener with the New York Yankees. But some say the true mark of a player's impact has on the game is in what his peers say about him. And like the fans...

A-Rod has a .000 average against lefties

Via Bronx Baseball Daily  |  April 23, 2012
I said all offseason, if Alex Rodriguez is healthy than I’m not worried about him. So far this season he has shown no signs of any lingering injuries and has been impressive with the way he moves around in the field. There is something to be concerned about though – A-Rod is not hitting lefties. At all. A-Rod has now played in 15 games this year, six against lefty starters...

A couple of former Yankees find jobs

Via Bronx Baseball Daily  |  April 24, 2012
A couple of former Yankees got jobs yesterday as Hideki Matsui is expected to sign with the Rays and Bill Hall signed with the Orioles, according to Jack Curry and Ken Rosenthal. The Rays have struggled to score runs and even though Luke Scott is having a solid season, he is awful against lefties so Matsui will likely platoon with him and maybe get an occasional game in the outfield...

Where does Pudge Rodriguez stand in history?

Via hardballchat.com  |  April 23, 2012
The sports news cycle is always an interesting one. Today, Pudge Rodriguez officially announced his retirement from baseball. Like most modern players, you get the idea that he could play and wanted to play, but teams are becoming more and more skittish about adding aging veterans to their squad. Part of that is the increasing money involved and part of that is as old...

Red Sox Ruining Daniel Bard Like Yankees Did with Joba Chamberlain and Phil Hughes?

Via hardballchat.com  |  April 23, 2012
The Boston Red Sox appear to be ruining Daniel Bard in the same way the New York Yankees have seemingly ruined Joba Chamberlain. By alternating a pitcher between a reliever to a starter to a temporary closer, it can not only mess with his psyche, but also his mechanics and confidence on the mound. You would think one team would learn from their rival’s mistake, but...
