Aaron Judge Dealing With Side Soreness

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (side) is dealing with general side soreness, according to manager Aaron Boone. Boone declined to label Judge's injury more specifically than that, but it seems like the Yankees are just being cautious with Judge by keeping him out of the lineup on Wednesday before the team's off-day on Thursday. […]

Aaron Hicks Sits Out Tuesday Against Orioles

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks will sit out Tuesday's matchup with the Orioles. This should just be a day off for Hicks, who has slumped out of the gates by going 1-for-15 with seven strikeouts in four games. Brett Gardner will take over for Hicks in center, and he will be hitting third against […]

Yankees To Acquire Rougned Odor

Texas Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor was traded to the New York Yankees on Tuesday. It's unknown what the Rangers received in return. Once considered a building block for the Rangers, Odor's poor performance led to him falling out of favor in Texas, and he failed to make the team's Opening Day roster this year. […]

Mike Tauchman To Continue Working At First Base

New York Yankees outfielder Mike Tauchman will continue work at first base as he seeks to add versatility to his game. Tauchman played some first base in college so he has familiarity with the position, and it's no surprise to see Tauchman work to elevate his value given the crowded state of the Yankees roster. […]

Aroldis Chapman Makes Season Debut On Monday

New York Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman made his season debut on Monday, striking out three batters and walking one over one inning of work. Monday's appearance was far from a save situation as the Yankees had a seven-run lead when Chapman entered in the ninth inning, and the team likely just wanted to get the […]

Aaron Judge Hits His First Home Run Of The 2021 Season

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge clubbed his first home run of the season as part of a two-hit game on Monday. Judge's home run took full advantage of the short porch in Yankee Stadium and "only" had a .540 xBA, but it was still a well-struck ball and a nice showcase of Judge's impressive […]

Jordan Montgomery Excellent In Season Debut

New York Yankees starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery was fantastic against the Orioles on Monday, tossing six shutout innings with no walks and seven strikeouts. Montgomery leaned heavily on his changeup on Monday (34% usage rate) with great success, generating nine whiffs on 25 pitches. Montgomery obviously won't stay this hot all season, but his season […]

Giancarlo Stanton Hits Grand Slam On Monday

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton broke a two-game hitless streak with a mammoth grand slam against the Orioles on Monday, sending a 92 mph fastball a whopping 471 feet. That shot should remind fantasy managers just how powerful Stanton is, and the 31-year-old should continue producing as one of the league's best power hitters […]

Giancarlo Stanton Back In Lineup Monday

New York Yankees designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton is back in the lineup Monday after having the day off on Sunday. Stanton is off to a slow start so far, as he is 0-for-8 with two walks through his first two games. He'll look to get his season on track against Baltimore Orioles starter Jorge Lopez.

Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 2

The game is undeniably tougher in the opening weeks. Baseball is not a game where you derive much of anything from just a few games, so we really need to get into the season before we have trustworthy data. When talking about starting pitchers, it takes a long time to build up your data since […]

Outfield Waiver Wire Pickups For Week 2

Baseball is back, and with it came room for fantasy managers to gain edges in their leagues through the waiver wire.

Catchers to Stream - Week 2 Waiver Wire

It's your resident catcher advocate here, preparing my defense for baseball's most maligned position.
