Miguel Andujar Drives In Three In Victory

Resuming their series against the lowly Baltimore Orioles, the New York Yankees once again emerged victorious at Camden Yards on Saturday afternoon. Following a lengthy rain delay, the club scored eight runs to walk away with another victory, putting them 20 games over .500. The offensive start was third baseman Miguel Andujar, who hit a […]

Giancarlo Stanton Smashes Home Run In Baltimore

After Miguel Andujar’s two-run home run put the New York Yankees up in the second inning of Saturday afternoon’s matchup against the Baltimore Orioles, another home run increased the lead. It came an inning later off the bat of Giancarlo Stanton, who’s still trying to find his way with the Yankees. The 28-year-old stepped up […]

Orioles-Yankees Game Facing Rain Delay Saturday

MLB.com writer Bryan Hoch reports that the Saturday game between the Orioles and the Yankees will be delayed due to the threat of inclement weather.

Welcome back to my hitting streamers column for Week 10, taking a look at hitters to add or stream off the waiver wire for this week's scheduled games. To keep things simple, I pick from players who are 50% owned or less and who play at least seven games in the week.  If someone jumps […]

Sonny Gray Bounces Back In Baltimore

Still wildly inconsistent, New York Yankees starter Sonny Gray put forth one of his best starts of the season on Friday night in Baltimore, picking up his fourth victory to match his total losses. The 28-year-old, who was taking on the Orioles, went six strong, surrendering only one run on four hits, with a first-inning […]

Austin Romine Stays Red-Hot In Victory

While rarely getting full games considering he’s the backup catcher, Austin Romine is currently on a tear for the New York Yankees. The 29-year-old rode a nine-game hitting streak into Friday’s game against the Baltimore Orioles, making his regular start with Sonny Gray on the mound. He would record two hits from the eight spot […]

Greg Bird Hits First Triple Of Season

Playing in his fifth game of the season after debuting following time missed with an ankle injury and surgery, New York Yankees first baseman Greg Bird recorded another offensive milestone. Taking on the Baltimore Orioles Friday night, the 25-year-old recorded only one hit in five plate appearances, but it came at an important moment. With […]

Week 10 Waiver Wire: H2H Category Streamers

I like to consider myself a pioneer of the streaming approach. I won a league about seven years ago completely ignoring saves and just stacking up the starts each week. While streaming is undoubtedly more directly associated with pitching, there's plenty of value in streaming for offense as well. Maybe you have a stacked roster […]

Heading into Wednesday’s game, the 30-year-old carried a streak of seven consecutive appearances without allowing a run, but it would be broken. Chapman surrendered a […]

Taking on the defending champions on Wednesday night in the Bronx, Severino went seven innings, allowing two runs on four hits and one […]
