Latest Updates Around The World
Observations from Yankees spring training Thursday: A good bell Cody Bellinger went 0-for-1 with a walk. More importantly, he left feeling healthy after playing right field in his first spring training in nearly a week. The former MVP – who had been out of action due to a mild back injury – will start again […]
CLEARWATER, Fla. – The best offensive season of Trent Grisham’s career was also his worst defensively. The end result was Grisham accepting the qualifying offer and returning to the Yankees with the chance to prove that not only was his offensive breakout not a fluke, but also that there is more in the tank defensively […]
CLEARWATER, Fla. – Trea Turner went down swinging with a four-seam fastball. JT Realmuto followed, returning to the bench after taking a 96 mph pitch. Then came Alec Bohm, who ended the first inning after a heat wave. After striking out a three-time batting champion, three-time Silver Slugger Award winner and former All-Star, Will Warren […]
TAMPA – Cody Bellinger knows the deal by now. The Yankees veteran’s back problems have almost become an annual ritual on the calendar around this time, giving him the assurance that he will be back on the field soon. For now, Bellinger is sidelined after his back strained against him on Friday, preventing him from […]
TAMPA — Paul Blackburn could be a steal.

Observations from the Yankees’ spring training on Thursday. Having a blast Jazz Chisholm Jr., Paul Goldschmidt and Spencer Jones all crushed home runs in a 7-3 win over the Braves – Chisholm’s first of the spring and the second for both Goldschmidt and Jones. Jazz Chisholm Jr. hit his first home run of the spring […]
TAMPA – The worst thing that ever happened to Jasson Domínguez is being nicknamed “The Martian.” The best could turn out to be teammates with Amed Rosario. There is “very good player potential” in Domínguez. An All-Star Game or two, potentially for 20-20 players. But probably not ‘The Martian’. But that nickname, and the heady […]
DUNEDIN, Fla. – Aaron Boone said at the start of camp that he wanted his club to be aggressive in its use of the automated ball-strike challenge system. How does a 6-for-8 day sound in that respect?
