starting line ups

Luis Severino looks to reclaim the fire he had last season. He enters tonight's game with a 0-2 record and a 5.91 ERA. This is not what we expected from the young phenom. There is a chance the cold affects him the way it does Michael Pineda...

Normally i'll give you all kind of reasons why the pitching is the key to this game but tonight it's all about RISP! Runners in scoring position. The Yankees are terrible with Runners in scoring position. In last night's game the Yankees RISP was 1 for 7 with A Rod being the only guy that hit with a guy on second base or better...

I expect big things from Big Mike tonight. Michael Pineda is NOT a cold weather pitcher. He becomes uncomfortable and has issues with his grip. Tonight's game against the Athletics is supposed to be in the 60's so hopefully Pineda shows he still has the kind of stuff we saw early last season...

The New York Yankees are a flawed team. Their biggest flaw is clearly they can't score runs. We all knew the Bull pen had the potential to be one for the ages but as of right now the starters would need to be nearly perfect to hand the ball to the bullpen with a lead...

This is a mismatch on paper, the Mariners ace versus the Yankees FORMER ace. Big CC Sabathia is my pick for comeback player of the year so I'm going to cross my fingers, shut my mouth and hope for a quality outing against Felix Hernandez and the Mariners...

The New York Yankees begin a nine game home stand tonight in the Bronx when they host the Seattle Mariners. Robinson Cano and the and the rest of the Mariners will try their luck against rising star and rookie pitcher Luis Severino. Seattle Mariners: Nathan Karns (R) 1...

The Toronto Blue Jays ace is a small yet fiery right hander from Brook Haven NY. Stroman is fun to watch...when he's not facing your team. The Yankees will need to get Nathan Eovaldi some run support tonight in the series rubber match. New York Yankees: Nathan Eovaldi (R) 1...

The New York Yankees Face Toronto Blue Jays and their pitcher left handed pitcher J.A. Happ. Facing a lefty means we get to see Joe Girardi's line up changes. I truly enjoy watching the mad scientist make his adjustments. First noticed change is Brett Gardner is out and Starlin Castro is batting higher than eight in the order...

Thanks to a rain out in Detroit we have another "Tanaka Tuesday" and even better this means Masahiro Tanaka is pitching on full rest. This match up between Toronto and New York could be the one that decides the AL east. So even though it's early in the season these wins matter...

This Yankees season can be summed up with one word "IF." Today's IF is "If CC Sabathia can find a way to give the Yankees solid outings they can keep a Lefty pitcher in their starting rotation." CC has lost some velocity, has a bad knee and is dealing with his demons in the form of alcohol but he's a leader in the clubhouse and the Yankees need him IF they're going back to the

Yankees take this season on the road for the Detroit Tigers home opener. Yankees future ace Luis Severino takes the mound for the Yankees. The Yankees goal to get younger and continue to contend gets a lot easier if Severino lives up to the hype...

The Yankees are scheduled to face the Houston Astros in game three of a three game series today at 4:05 pm. The only issue is the weather may get in the way today. The Bronx is dealing with potential rain right around the first pitch. If everything goes as plans Nathan Eovaldi will lead the Bronx Bombers to their second win of this young season today at 4:05 PM...
