Clint Frazier Demoted Yet Again

In a widely expected move as the one extra roster spot was allowed just for Monday’s doubleheader, the New York Yankees had to drop one man from their roster, and it was Clint Frazier.

As expected, the New York Yankees activated reliever/spot starter Adam Warren on Monday after over six weeks on the disabled list with a strained back.

Sonny Gray Bounces Back In Baltimore

Still wildly inconsistent, New York Yankees starter Sonny Gray put forth one of his best starts of the season on Friday night in Baltimore, picking up his fourth victory to match his total losses. The 28-year-old, who was taking on the Orioles, went six strong, surrendering only one run on four hits, with a first-inning […]

CC Sabathia Hurt By Awful Defense

While starting pitcher CC Sabathia certainly wasn’t at his best for the New York Yankees on Tuesday, he certainly wasn’t helped by those behind him.
