Spring training is a time of renewal, as the baseball bards like to say, but for the Yankees that means a renewal of pennant pressure, even if it is only February.

Had he not passed away last January, Ryne Duren would have turned 83 this Feb. 22. New York Yankees fans older than me remember Duren as much for his thick glasses as for his potent fastball. Reputedly able to throw the ball at 100 miles per hour, Duren was an effective reliever for...

In December of 2008, the New York Yankees, my favorite baseball team, gave A.J. Burnett a huge $82 million, five year contract. Burnett pitched well for us in 2009, going 13-9 with a 4.04 ERA, and winning critical Game Two of the World Series over the Philadelphia Phillies.

On Monday, February 20 the New York Yankees got the man the long coveted, signing Raul Ibanez to a one year deal. If I look on the bright side the deal is for just $1.1 million, so if it goes wrong, which I think it will, the Yankees can just cut Ibanez and not worry about it.
