The Yankees and the Orioles had their day/night doubleheader postponed on Saturday. Both teams are now set to play two on Sunday with game times of 1:35 and 7:35 PM. What are the keys for the Yankees for these remaining games?

With Hurricane Irene fast approaching, the Orioles decided to make their own storm putting up 12 runs against the Yankees.

Watching AJ Burnett these days is like watching someone getting a root canal.  It's just not fun. On Saturday, Burnett gave up 7 runs in just over an inning in the Yankees 9-4 loss to Minnesota.  It was his shortest outing since 2004 - when he was a member of the Florida Marlins. The question now becomes what should the Yankees do with AJ?

This was a story of the starters. This game showed how great Francisco Liriano can be when he’s on, and how bad we all know AJ Burnett can be when he doesn’t have control.

The New York Yankees got an important win on Monday night as they beat the Kansas City Royals 7-4. The win brings the Yankees into a tie for first place in the AL East with the Red Sox. In addition, AJ Burnett got his very first win in the month of August in his Yankee career. So what exactly does this win mean for Burnett?

The New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays had their rubber game postponed due to heavy rain on Sunday. AJ Burnett was scheduled to start in place of Freddy Garcia due to an injury to Garcia's throwing hand.

Former Yankee Bobby Abreu hit two enormous home runs for the Angels in a 6-4 win against the Yankees on Tuesday night.  AJ Burnett was roughed up to nobody's surprise.  Mariano Rivera gave up the go-ahead, two-run homer to Abreu in the 9th.

The Yankees offense came alive against Gavin Floyd and the White Sox on Wednesday night.  Unfortunately, AJ Burnett was unable to last five innings to be eligible for the win.

The Yankees lose to the Orioles 4-2 late Friday night as they could not solve Jeremy Guthrie. AJ Burnett had a mixed start going 8 innings BUT giving up 4 runs on 5 extra-base hits, including two home runs, one to Mark Reynolds with a two-run home run, and one to Derrek Lee. Is this a sign of things to come for the Yankees? What are the latest trade rumors?

The Oakland A's, behind their starter Rich Harden, beat the Yankees 4-3 on Saturday. The A's got some offense from the former Yankee and 2009 World Series MVP Hideki Matsui, as he went deep in the win. Burnett took the loss in the effort.

The Yankees got a bases loaded walk by Russell Martin in the top of the 9th inning, which gave them the 5-4 lead and win over the Rays Monday night. AJ Burnett had a rough outing for the Yanks while the bullpen led the rally by the Bronx Bombers as they recorded the win. What does this win mean for the Yanks? Which injured players are soon to come back for the Yanks?

The Boston Red Sox are proving to be the hump that the New York Yankees cannot seem to get over this season. Boston rolls the Yanks again 11-6.
