New York Yankees news, rumors and injuriesYankees | Derek Jeter breaks tie with Lou Gehrig Tue, 22 Jul 2014 22:49:13 -0700 New York Yankees SS Derek Jeter posted his 535th career double Tuesday, July 22, against the Texas Rangers, breaking a tie with Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig for the top spot on the franchise's doubles list. Comment () | Share: Yankees | Chase Headley pays instant dividends Tue, 22 Jul 2014 22:25:37 -0700 New York Yankees 3B Chase Headley delivered a game-winning single in the bottom of the 14th inning Tuesday, July 22, against the Texas Rangers in his team debut. Comment () | Share: Yankees | Kelly Johnson leaves game Tue, 22 Jul 2014 21:19:00 -0700 New York Yankees 3B Kelly Johnson (groin) left the game Tuesday, July 22, against the Texas Rangers due to a groin injury. He was sent for an MRI. Comment () | Share: Yankees | Brian McCann rebounding Tue, 22 Jul 2014 11:17:09 -0700 New York Yankees C Brian McCann is hitting .310 since June 27, when hitting coach Kevin Long helped McCann eliminate the toe tap from his swing. McCann was batting .223 through his first 70 contests. Fantasy Tip: If you can still buy McCann from a frustrated owner, go for it. His slow start looks like history now, and when you can find a catcher with this hot streak, it's worth your attention. Comment () | Share: Yankees | Acquire Chase Headley Tue, 22 Jul 2014 10:12:58 -0700 The New York Yankees acquired 3B Chase Headley from the San Diego Padres in exchange for INF Yangervis Solarte and SP Rafael De Paula. San Diego also will send $1 million to New York. Fantasy Tip: This is a big move for Headley, who becomes a top crossover FAAB candidate for AL-only players. He's rebounded a bit of late, and moving to the Bronx, a hitter's haven, should bode well for the rest of his second half. Solarte can be added in NL-only games but doesn't hold much upside, especially at PETCO Park. De Paula is a prospect to watch in the coming years but not necessarily stashable outside of full-team dynasty formats. Comment () | Share: Yankees | Close to acquiring Chase Headley Tue, 22 Jul 2014 10:05:38 -0700 San Diego Padres 3B Chase Headley is on the verge of joining the New York Yankees. Fantasy Tip: We'll keep you posted on whether this is finalized, but if it does, Headley is about to become an expensive target for AL-only FAAB miners. Comment () | Share: Yankees | Mark Teixeira out a few days Mon, 21 Jul 2014 12:55:20 -0700 New York Yankees 1B Mark Teixeira (lat) is expected to miss three to four days because of a mild lat strain, according to manager Joe Girardi. Teixeira is not expected to go on the 15-day disabled list at this point. Fantasy Tip: Owners in all leagues likely can keep Teixeira on the bench for the entire week and hope he will be able to rejoin the lineup next week. Comment () | Share: Yankees | Cliff Lee can block trade Mon, 21 Jul 2014 11:46:32 -0700 Philadelphia Phillies SP Cliff Lee will be able to block a trade to the New York Yankees, because the Yankees are one of the teams on his no-trade list. Comment () | Share: Yankees | Brandon McCarthy earns first win with team Sat, 19 Jul 2014 15:49:42 -0700 New York Yankees SP Brandon McCarthy picked up his first win with the team Saturday, July 19, allowing one run and striking out nine in six innings of work. Fantasy Tip: McCarthy has now allowed just two earned runs in 12 2/3 innings since joining the Yankees, and he is worth a trial run if you need pitching help, especially in deeper leagues and AL-only formats. Comment () | Share: Yankees | CC Sabathia hopes to be ready for 2015 Sat, 19 Jul 2014 09:07:50 -0700 New York Yankees SP CC Sabathia (knee) said the doctor performing his knee surgery is confident that he will be ready to throw off a mound by spring training. Sabathia said he would like to pitch for five or six more seasons after his current contract is over. He said he understands he may need to undergo more arthroscopic surgeries on his knee in the future. He should be able to start baseball activities six to eight weeks after the surgery. Comment () | Share: Yankees | Derek Jeter in the starting lineup Sat, 19 Jul 2014 07:22:02 -0700 New York Yankees SS Derek Jeter is in the lineup Saturday, July 19. Fantasy Tip: Get Jeter in your starting lineups in daily leagues if he is not already. Comment () | Share: Yankees | No interest in Dan Uggla Fri, 18 Jul 2014 14:33:55 -0700 Free-agent 2B Dan Uggla (Braves) is attracting zero interest from the New York Yankees, according to general manager Brian Cashman. Comment () | Share: Fri, 18 Jul 2014 14:11:47 -0700 Updating a previous report, New York Yankees SP CC Sabathia (knee) will undergo arthroscopic surgery on his knee Wednesday, July 23, and he'll be out for the rest of the season. Fantasy Tip: The good news here is that Sabathia's knee surgery isn't major, but it'll still keep him out for the entire second half of the season. Heading into 2015, there's no more upside with him anymore. Comment () | Share:
Fri, 18 Jul 2014 13:53:18 -0700 New York Yankees SP CC Sabathia (knee) will require surgery and is out for the year. The team is hopeful he will be ready in the spring. Fantasy Tip: The Sabathia news, along with the Masahiro Tanaka news, should benefit the likes of Shane Greene and Chase Whitley staying in the rotation. If you were holding Sabathia in a deep mixed league, you can safely drop him now. Comment () | Share: Yankees | Bryan Mitchell sent down Fri, 18 Jul 2014 13:32:17 -0700 New York Yankees RP Bryan Mitchell was sent down to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkse Barre Friday, July 18.
