Bronx Banter — I’m hardly an expert on the mechanics of a pitcher, but even I can tell that the finish of Lance McCullers’ delivery in this game against the Blue Jays looks rather painful. When your head is completely turned toward first base just as you’ve released the ball toward home plate, there is something desperately wrong. As [...]
2 hours agoRiver Ave. Blues — In 2008 the Yankees posted their worst offensive season in recent memory. The unit finished seventh in the AL in runs scored, after finishing in the top five, and usually in the top three, since their playoff ran began. Injuries played a large role in the decline. Hideki Matsui missed the entire second half, as [...]Post from: River Ave. Blues A New York Yankees blog2010 Season Preview: Banking on another rebound candidate
3 hours agoRiver Ave. Blues — Let’s start Friday off with a few random links from around the netweb… Projecting the backup outfielders Sean at Pending Pinstripes took a look at some projections for the Yankees’ reserve outfielders, which essentially includes everyone not named Curtis Granderson or Nick Swisher. Unsurprisingly, Brett Gardner projects to be the best player of the bunch in 2010 [...]Post from: River Ave. Blues A New York Yankees blogLink Dump: Backups, Cervelli, Media Jerks
3 hours agoRiver Ave. Blues — This afternoon’s game against the Nationals has already been called due to rain, which is a shame because I was looking forward to doing another game chat. I guess a regular old chat will have to suffice. See you at 1pm ET.

3 hours agoBronx Banter — A month into spring training has yielded little in terms of newsworthy occurrences in Yankee camp. The team announced it would not discuss or negotiate contract extensions for Mariano Rivera, Derek Jeter, or manager Joe Girardi until after the season, which is consistent with recent club policy. Nick Johnson missed time with back stiffness (uh-oh), but [...]
5 hours agoBronx Banter — That’s a term you rarely hear in baseball, but Thursday night’s exhibition game between the Braves and Yankees was rained out, and in spring training, that doesn’t result in the game being merely postponed. It’s canceled. A.J. Burnett threw three innings under simulated conditions to stay on schedule, working in his curve for the first [...]
12 hours agoRiver Ave. Blues — At this point last year, we began wondering about Joba Chamberlain’s velocity. After throwing in the upper 90s out of the bullpen, and then mid-90s in the rotation, Joba had been throwing in the low-90s for most of spring training. This caused particular concern because Chamberlain had missed more than a month in 2008 with [...]Post from: River Ave. Blues A New York Yankees blogHow Joba can learn about reduced velocity from Lincecum
13 hours agoBronx Banter — Lauren Bacall’s silver screen debut. Not a bad start, eh? This scene is still smoking hot. William Faulkner helped on the script, based on the novel by Ernest Hemingway. The movie features a memorable performance by Walter Brennan in a supporting role and a couple of charming routines by the one and only Hoagy Carmichael.
16 hours agoRiver Ave. Blues — Alright folks, the league settings are the same as the other four leagues (see them here), though remember that the maximum number of moves per week has been capped at eight. We don’t want people swapping out starters every day to build up those win and strikeout totals. If you missed out on the other [...]Post from: River Ave. Blues A New York Yankees blogRAB Fantasy Baseball League Part Five
17 hours agoRiver Ave. Blues — Aside from the general joy of watching baseball, there’s usually not much to get excited about when watching Spring Training games. Great pitching matchups last all of two innings, and by time a hot shot prospect enters the game, all the regulars are gone. But every so often something will come along that’s worth getting [...]Post from: River Ave. Blues A New York Yankees blogSpring Training Game Thread: A look at the phenom
