2022/08/18

The Yankees’ miserable stretch continued after they lost series to the Red Sox and Rays after ending their awful road trip. However, last night’s sweep-avoiding extra-innings walk-off win against the Rays did bring some optimism and hopefully did enough to inject some life into this team that’s looked lifeless for the better part of two months now. This team was in dire need of a spark and Josh Donaldson might have just provided it for them. Kunj returned to the podcast after a one-week hiatus

Pinstripe Alley Podcast Ep. 166: Finding Ways to Lose

2022/08/11

The Yankees have lost seven of their last eight games, including a sweep by the Cardinals over the past weekend. They are 7-13 in the second half, have dropped 18 of their last 28 games, and are 20-23 since the start of that fateful series against the Astros in late June. The optimist might say that this is a lot of arbitrary endpoints, but also, I don't think anyone would deny that they've looked miserable in the past week and mediocre for nearly two months. Egad.

What a strange couple days, huh? As the Trade Deadline crept to a close, the Yankees made some notable moves. The Frankie Montas, Lou Trivino, and Scott Effross additions were met with near-universal praise, and getting a minor pitching prospect in exchange for Joey Gallo wasn't too shabby either. However, the decision to flip steady starter Jordan Montgomery for injured outfielder Harrison Bader was met with some understandably raised eyebrows, given the current makeup of the Yankees'

Yankees GM Brian Cashman had quite a busy Monday. In the span of just a few hours, he dealt five prospects for three MLB pitchers: starter Frankie Montas and relievers Lou Trivino and Scott Effross. It's a lot to take in, but you can't say that the Yankees have refused to improve this already-talented team. Join this Twitter Spaces recording from before Monday night's game, when Josh Diemert, Peter Brody, Jake Devin, and Jeff Middleton (plus a few audience guests) discussed the deadline moves and

Problem: The Yankees have been off their game in July with a 10-12 record and 2-5 since the end of the All-Star break, including an 0-4 mark against the potential October opponent Astros and Mets. Sure, IL stints from Michael King, Giancarlo Stanton, and Luis Severino haven't helped matters, but even with the team's terrific record, areas for improvement are clear. Solution: GM Brian Cashman took an important step toward resolving one issue last night by trading for Royals outfielder Andrew

2022/07/21

The All-Star break is officially behind us, as is the first half of the 2022 MLB season. Technically, we passed the 81-game threshold in early July, but for all accounting purposes, the second half will begin with the Yankees’ doubleheader in Houston on Thursday. (Note that this episode was recorded on Wednesday afternoon.) Before Andrew and Kunj fall too far in the weeds in looking ahead to the future and more extensive trade deadline talk, they want to look back at a truly incredible first half

The Yankees went through some ups and downs this past week, with the highs of winning back-to-back games at Fenway with good showings by the offense and the lows of three blown nights in a row. They had leads in each game on Saturday, Sunday, and Tuesday, but they all evaporated and two of them came on blown saves from Clay Holmes. The now-All-Star closer is experiencing his first bumps of the season, but Andrew and Kunj still have confidence in him. The Yankees did rebound to snap the three-game

2022/07/07

It was a bit of an odd week for the Yankees, who sandwiched two days of clobbering -- 19 runs in a doubleheader on Saturday in Cleveland, and a 16-0 win last night in Pittsburgh -- between some very quiet performances at the plate. This has been a bit of a recurring trend for the lineup since mid-June, though they've remained at the top of the MLB standings with a 59-23 record as of the start of play on Thursday. Andrew and Kunj talk all things Yankees, from those past couple series to the

2022/06/30

The 2022 New York Yankees are going to close out a June with a record at least 35 games over .500. It's patently absurd, and Andrew & Kunj can't get enough of it. There was no way that the Astros series was going to be normal, right? The opener was three-run homer mayhem capped by Aaron Hicks' game-tying homer in the bottom of the ninth and Aaron Judge's walk-off hit. Next came dominance from Houston pitching as Justin Verlander shoved on Friday, Cristian Javier and two relievers combined on the

2022/06/23

After skipping a week due to Andrew's bout with COVID, the PSA Podcast is back to marvel once more at the ridiculous exploits of the 2022 Yankees. New York snuck a nine-game winning streak in between the most recent recordings, are 17-3 in June, and after taking a pair of road series against division rivals in Toronto and Tampa Bay, the 51-18 Yanks sit neck-and-neck with the legendary 1998 squad at the best starts in modern franchise history. The Blue Jays and Red Sox would both hold Wild Card spots

PSA Twittercast Ep. 4: Pride Month and the Yankees

2022/06/18

Josh Diemert served as moderator for an important Twitter Space discussion on June 16th, when he talked with a number of different members of the queer baseball community about their fan origins, stories of following team and Pride participation, and of course, the Yankees. The Yanks are one of only two MLB teams to not have a Pride Night, and it's a real problem considering how many of their fans identify as queer in some capacity (not to mention the fact that they literally play in New York

2022/06/08

After a bummer of a finish to a series at the Trop left Andrew & Kunj a little wanting, the Yankees responded with a perfect 6-0 homestand against the Angels and Tigers! Kind of them. The pitching was absolutely ridiculous, as every single starter dominated. Jameson Taillon and Gerrit Cole got the most attention with back-to-back perfect-game bids that lasted deep into the night, but Nestor Cortes, Luis Severino, and Jordan Montgomery each turned in terrific outings as well. As an added bonus, while

2022/05/31

In an early podcast for this week, Kunj and Andrew looked back on a decent-but-frustrating series at Tropicana Field (what else is new?) wherein the Yankees pitching shoved but the lineup fell short. Aaron Judge and Gleyber Torres seem to be the only hitters regularly bringing their lumber to the yard, as everyone else is either slumping (Anthony Rizzo, DJ LeMahieu), injured (Giancarlo Stanton, Josh Donaldson), or — most annoyingly — continuing to show minimal signs of life at bat (Joey Gallo, Aaron

2022/05/26

Since Andrew was out of town for a few days, it’s been longer than normal since the previous PSAP recording on Tuesday of last week. Quite a few things have happened in Yankee Land, and unfortunately, most of them weren’t good! Kunj and Andrew caught up on Josh Donaldson’s dumb comments that hurt the Yankees’ good vibes, an up-and-down homestand against the White Sox & Orioles, and the team’s injured list woes relating to Giancarlo Stanton, Jonathan Loáisiga, Aroldis Chapman, Chad Green, and hey

2022/05/17

In an early recording for this week's episode, Andrew and Kunj discuss noodles in DC, Hillary Duff, and the Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Okay, we're just kidding (though each gets a weird passing mention), as this is a Yankees podcast and the good ol' Bombers have remained hot! The Yankees took three out of four on the South Side of Chicago and won the first game in Baltimore on Monday night. The homering ways have continued, and Josh Donaldson in particular looks sharp. He's homered three times in

The positive vibes remain in the Bronx, as while the 11-game winning streak came to a close last week and a ton of rain forced the Yankees into a stretch of 23 games in 22 days, they’re still playing quite a bit of good baseball. Andrew and Kunj talked about that odd Mother’s Day doubleheader and the series win clinch over the Rangers on Monday, and of course they discussed the Yankees’ two wins over the Blue Jays in the past two days (including Aaron Judge’s walk-off heroics), giving them seven

The Yankees' 11-game winning streak came to a close on Wednesday night in Toronto, but what a run it was! Andrew and Kunj discussed the first six wins of that stretch last week, and this time, they chat about the latter half, which included a third straight sweep in Kansas City and impressive back-to-back wins in Toronto. The Jays had been playing .694 ball at Rogers Centre since they returned there last July, so that is some dang good baseball. Aaron Judge has been especially hot (crushing about

It's been a good week to be a Yankees fan. The Bombers put up a perfect 6-0 homestand, sweeping the Guardians and Orioles back-to-back after winning two out of three in Detroit, and they head into a three-game set tonight in Kansas City on a six-game winning streak! Andrew and Kunj have quite a few positives to discuss, from the MLB home run leader Anthony Rizzo (!) to recent mini-resurgences from Joey Gallo and Gleyber Torres, as well. Giancarlo Stanton got No. 350, Aaron Judge homered on his

PSA Twittercast Ep. 3: Nestor is the Real Deal

2022/04/25

In case you missed it, Josh Diemert hosted a Twitter Space with Peter Brody and Sam Chapman over the weekend. This recording was completed shortly after the Yankees' bonkers Saturday win over Cleveland and its strange conclusion. Topics go beyond that game though! They also talked about Nestor Cortes' underrated true stuff (he's not just a crafty lefty), better looks from the offense, why Chad Green makes them uneasy, and how baseball will celebrate future milestones since traditional ones like the

2022/04/21

The first month of the 2022 Yankees season is rolling along and two storylines have immediately jumped to the forefront in the early goings. On the positive side, the pitching looks outstanding. Gerrit Cole is in a weird funk, but other than the nominal ace, the men on the mound are pretty much all rolling, especially the ever-delightful Nestor Cortes (and the bullpen, for that matter). In fact, they're allowing an MLB-best 2.8 runs per game. So on the back of that remarkable pitching, the Yankees
