Yankees News

The Yankees' momentum continues to build as they gear up for another clash with the Texas Rangers, riding high after a solid 7-4 victory yesterday. With a 6-1 record over the last week and a staggering run differential of +30, it's clear this team is firing on all cylinders, even as they face the sudden loss of Ryan Weathers due to a viral infection that cost him his start. Paul Blackburn will step in as the Yankees look to keep their winning ways alive against a Rangers team that can’t seem to figure out their own pitching issues. Will Warren, who has shown promise this season, faltered in his last outing, but with hot bats like Aaron Judge and Ben Rice leading the charge, the Yankees are poised to capitalize on any mistakes from a struggling Texas lineup.

Nathan Eovaldi keeps rolling against Yankees as Will Warren falters

There was reason to be optimistic heading into tonight. Will Warren has been outstanding early this season and the Yankee offense has been humming. Warren has been stingy with issuing walks and has kept the ball in the yard, while the bats have been posting crooked numbers on the regular. Conversely, there was a very […]
