Indians 5, Yankees 2: Green melts down in first half finale
A suboptimal finish to the first half. The Yankees let a winnable game slip away Sunday afternoon — that happened far too often on this road trip — to finish this four-game series with a split. Normally I’d be okay with splitting four games with the Indians in Cleveland. This was frustrating though. The final […] The post Indians 5, Yankees 2: Green melts down in first half finale appeared first on River Avenue Blues.

Cardinals pitcher enters radar as Yankees and more seek help
WASHINGTON — Contending teams pursuing starting pitching continue to operate as if Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard are not moving before the trade deadline, forcing clubs such as the Yankees to mull these questions in an ace-less marketplace: 1. Do they prioritize the kind of starter unlikely to be bothered by pennant-race intensity and likely...

Yankees option Clint Frazier to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
Red Thunder is back on the Scranton shuttle. The Yankees are getting their money’s worth out of Clint Frazier’s option years. Following Sunday afternoon’s game, the club announced that they sent Frazier back to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Frazier, 23, is hitting .265/.390/.353 across 41 plate appearances in the big leagues this season. He’s struggled defensively at times and hasn’t hit for much power, running up a 115 wRC+ in pinstripes. For the RailRiders, however, Frazier is a different player. He spent a good portion of the first half torching International League...

Justus Sheffield falters in Futures Game
The Yankees’ top pitching prospect didn’t have the best outing. All-Star break festivities officially kicked off this afternoon with the Futures Game. The World Team currently leads 3-1 in the top of the fourth inning. Although the game is far from over, the Yankees’ lone player is done for the day (and happens to be responsible for two of those runs). Justus Sheffield, New York’s best pitching prospect, had mixed results during his outing today. Seuly Matias deposited his third pitch into the right field bullpen to tie the game. Sheffield also struck out Luis Arias, and induced...

Yankees reportedly “fading” in Manny Machado sweepstakes
It was a long shot to begin with, but now it looks like the Yankees won’t get Machado. According to Thomas Harrigan, the Yankees are “fading” in the hunt for Orioles shortstop Manny Machado. Several National League teams remain in the forefront, primarily the Phillies and Dodgers. It was almost a week ago that reports surfaced connecting the Yankees to Machado. In that time, Brian Cashman reportedly made a strong offer, but other teams have since passed him. Per the New York Post, the front office made all of the top prospects unavailable, virtually eliminating themselves from...

Didi Gregorius is finally a complete hitter
Didi Gregorius has improved again in 2018, and it’s not all because of him. For many years, Didi Gregorius’ bat was an afterthought. Anything he did offensively was an added bonus to his great defense and clubhouse character. Last season was considered a breakout year, smashing the record for home runs hit by a Yankees shortstop. That mark was previously held by some guy named Derek Jeter. You might have heard of him. Even with all that, he was still only about an average hitter overall, posting a 107 wRC+. Something was missing. Gregorius wasn’t drawing walks. His owned a 4.4% walk...

New York Yankees @ Cleveland Indians: Masahiro Tanaka vs. Trevor Bauer
The Yankees look to take three of four from Cleveland heading into the All-Star Break. After three close, tense games in Cleveland, the Yankees have a chance to secure a series win today against the Indians. Much like the ALDS these two teams put on last October, this series has been full of taut matches and dramatic moments. Let's hope this series culminates with the same result as the ALDS. Masahiro Tanaka will make his second start since returning from the DL with injuries to both his hamstrings. Tanaka was uneven in his last outing, lasting only 4.1 innings against the Orioles, yielding...
