    George Lombard Jr. rewarding Yankees’ trust with strong postseason start (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Long before George Lombard Jr. became the Yankees’ starting shortstop, he served at the lowest level of their archrival’s organization. Somewhere between ages 7 and 9, Lombard assisted as an unofficial bat boy for the Gulf Coast League Red Sox in Fort Myers, Florida. His dad, a former big leaguer, managed the rookie-ball club from 2011-2012, and he also spent three years as Boston’s minor league outfield and baserunning coordinator. Often, the father would bring his son to work. In addition to h

    Yankees set sights on tougher Rays team after embarrassing Red Sox with Wild Card sweep (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Ever since the Yankees acquired Luis García Jr. on Aug. 3, the former National pictured what postseason baseball would look and feel like. He talked about it with his new teammates, many of whom spoke from experience that he did not have. The New York native got his first taste on Tuesday, going 0-for-1 off the bench in the Yankees’ easy 9-0 win over the Red Sox in Game 1 of the Wild Card Series. But on Wednesday, he made his mark in his first postseason start, hammering a Sonny Gray sweeper in

    Read excerpt

    With the Yankees one win away from advancing to the ALDS, Aaron Boone wasn’t sure if he would have Aaron Judge for the potential showdown with the Rays. “Probably too early to tell,” Boone said Wednesday when asked if Judge could return should the Yankees pick up another Wild Card win over the Red Sox. Judge, recovering from a moderate right calf strain that he suffered on Sept. 16, went to Double-A Somerset to face live pitching on Tuesday. Boone, speaking before Game 2 of the Wild Card Series,

    How Ben Rice, Yankees’ Game 1 hero, blossomed into an ‘elite’ and ‘analytical’ hitter (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Matt Hyde still remembers the echoes that accompanied Ben Rice’s left-handed swing. The Yankees’ Northeast area scout spent a lot of time watching the Dartmouth product as an amateur in 2020 and 2021, yet it was Hyde’s ears that told him Rice had the makings of a big leaguer. Whether it be in the Futures Collegiate League, the Cape Cod League or the DIY league Rice helped organize during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Hyde was always wowed by the boom of his bat. “It was definitely a diffe

    Gary Phillips: Cam Schlittler says he’s no ace. Evidence to the contrary keeps mounting (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Or maybe he’s just a tad too modest. Perhaps overly deferential to a few rotation-mates with more years under their belts, more accolades in their trophy cases. Whatever the reason, Schlittler has insisted all year that he is no ace. Never mind that evidence to the contrary keeps mounting with the incandescent flamethrower about to be crowned the American League’s Cy Young. “I think an ace is someone who has longevity and success in their career over a handful of seasons, and they’ve shown consi
