Yankees potential trade partner: Tampa Bay Rays
Should the Yankees’ divisional rivals decide to sell, they have a number of pitching options that could intrigue Brian Cashman. The Yankees’ most desirable commodity at the trade deadline is no secret. After all, it’s been at the forefront of discussions regarding the club since December. The Bombers have an electric offense and a vaunted bullpen, but the starting rotation is widely considered to be what stands in the way of the team’s 28th championship. Luis Severino is a bonafide ace, but Jordan Montgomery is done for the season, Sonny Gray has been awful, and Masahiro Tanaka...

Yankees 9, Orioles 0: Sonny Gray and Greg Bird lead Yankees to victory
The Yankees earned a series split with the O’s with an easy win. Although a series split with the last-place Baltimore Orioles is far from ideal, the New York Yankees fought hard to salvage the series with a 9-0 win over their AL East rivals. Sonny Gray bounced back with his best start in over a month and Greg Bird launched a grand slam to provide a stress-free victory. The big story early on was how Sonny Gray would look in his latest try after his two most brutal starts of the season. After a scoreless first inning, he walked the tightrope in the second. However, he notched a big...

The return of Masahiro Tanaka might be vital to the Yankees
The Yankees are virtual locks to make the playoffs, but if they want to make noise in October, Masahiro Tanaka’s return to form may be crucial. The Yankees’ rotation has been in flux recently. Jordan Montgomery is on the shelf for the season, youngsters Domingo German and Jonathan Loaisiga have alternately impressed and frustrated, and Sonny Gray is in full meltdown mode. The pressure on general manager Brian Cashman to make a deal to reinforce the pitching staff is mounting. The problem isn’t that the Yankees don’t have pieces to deal. The problem lies in finding an arm worth...
