It was just two weeks ago that the Yankees swept the Mets in the Bronx, triggering a 10-game winning streak that ended with back-to-back losses to the Atlanta Braves, including a 10-5 setback on Wednesday at Yankee Stadium. The Yankees hit four home runs in the loss, but starter Phil Hughes (7-6) gave up four of his own and Boone Logan served up another.

Yankees coach: Melky made himself tradeable

Via Bronx Baseball Daily  |  June 22, 2012
The Yankees traded Melky Cabrera away, the Braves cut him, but over the last two seasons the Melk-Man has completely turned his career around and become one of the better players in the league. Where the Yankees and Braves wrong about him? Maybe, but it sounds like Melky needed a kick in the pants in order to take his life seriously away from the diamond which has also helped...

Via Double G Sports  |  June 21, 2012
CC Sabathia and the rest of the Yankees pitching staff have dominated interleague play in 2012.
