Injuries have piled up for the New York Yankees this season. However, Carlos Rodón, Giancarlo Stanton and Josh Donaldson are all getting closer to returning to the Major League roster. That leaves the question, which players will be going?

The New York Mets have been struggling for offensive power, why wouldn't they add a proven Major League hitter with over 150 homer runs in the last 8 years, especially a catcher? Well, Mets' general manager Billy Eppler may want to consult his crosstown friend, Yankees' general manager Brian Cashman on this one.

Over the next two weeks, the New York Yankees will have faced the first-place Tampa Bay Rays for 4-games; the fourth-place Toronto Blue Jays for 4-more; and then the second-place Baltimore Orioles for a trio to cap off the two week run.

Yankees' GM Brian Cashman had a lot to say to the media on Wednesday, and laid blame on two specific things for New York's early season struggles.

Babe Ruth last played for the New York Yankees almost ninety years ago. Yet, when you mention the name Shohei Ohtani to a New York baseball fan, Ruth's name comes up more often than not. There is a pretty good reason.

As one of the greatest Major League Baseball players faced the grim reality of premature death, Lou Gehrig considered himself "the luckiest man on the face of the earth." Though he eventually would die at the unthinkable age of 37, less than two years later, Gehrig never lost the appreciation of putting on a New York Yankees uniform. That treasured sentiment continues today in the Bronx Bombers locker-room.

On Sunday afternoon, Yankees manager Aaron Boone penciled Isiah Kiner-Falefa into the seventh spot in the Bronx Bombers' batting order. At first glance, most would assume IKF would be giving rookie shortstop Anthony Volpe a breather.

It's tough to argue the fact: until somebody, like the New York Yankees, knock off the Houston Astros, the reigning champion still holds the crown. However, this looks to be the year that American League representative in the fall classic will come from New York for the first time since 2009.

New York Yankees' general manager Brian Cashman envisioned a much different pitching rotation heading north at the end of spring training in 2023. One by one, Pinstripe hurlers have gone down. The team announced another pitching injury to the ever-fragile Luis Severino on Saturday.

The New York Yankees' franchise is among the elites in professional sports, which makes this story about their players paying for their own Wi-Fi even more odd.

In professional sports, you don't want to plan on injuries. However, you have to be smart and prepare for them. New York Yankees general manager Brian Cashman lured the biggest pitching prize of the 2023 free agent market, Carlos Rodón, to the Bronx. The GM certainly didn't want to plan for his left-handed pitcher's replacement in mid-March.

Starting in early September last season, his name, rather his bat was noticeably absent from the New York Yankees lineup. The last two years have not been vintage seasons for DJ LeMahieu, however being a two-time batting champion creates some pretty high standards. Injuries to the 2022 Gold Glove- Utility Player's big toe and second toe, hampered LeMahieu for the better part of the '22 season.
