Further proof that the world makes no sense: Derek Jeter and Harvey Keitel (playing a sort of hybrid of his Mr. White and Winston Wolfe …

I’ve attended more Yankees elimination parties than I care to remember, but the AL East standings always seem to shake out the same way — …

I just felt that this needed to be said.

Pettitte can’t get out of the fifth! Mariano can’t get out of the ninth (and was lifted for — oh, the humanity — Mike Myers)! …

The 2007 Yankees, currently languishing in the sub-basement of the AL East, have become everyone’s favorite punching bag, most recently knocked around by the Toronto …

Okay, that might be overstating things. But have you noticed how whenever there’s a late-game comeback or dramatic twist or, as was the case last …

A good game last night, featuring the Return of the Product, as David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez reminded us all that whan they’re both on, …

Wow. That Wily Mo. Not a strong outfielder. I know Manny’s not a strong outfielder, either — that “throw” he made after retrieving Lyle Overbay’s …

I admit: when Jools Tavarez showed up on our doorstep, I only knew a couple things about him. He once punched a phone, and he …

Well, at least Mike Timlin didn’t get killed. Seriously. On that hearty cracker back to the mound off the bat of Gregggg Zaun, I thought …

First off let me say that I like the Blue Jays. I think they have a phenomenal line-up and if Burnett and Halladay stay healthy, …

Seriously, would they? Not a chance. So let’s all be there at 3:55pm. Side note: When did Red Bull become the official dugout drink? I’ve …

Beating the Yankees is a pretty awesome thing unto itself. Beating them at Fenway, on the first crisp, warm night the season’s given us, when …

Folks, we know we’re living in harsh times when, on the cusp of a three-night showdown with the Yankees, no less than Joel Piniero — …

Now this is the kind of game that gets us all hot and sweaty for the Yankees to get into town. So much to absorb …

Folks, we are living in bold new times in which it is truly exciting to be a fan of excitement. An era in which Doug …

First things first: That’s gotta be Geddy Lee up there in that picture under the “BOS”, right? I’ve been watching this dude sitting in that …

The Sox couldn’t have picked a better time to be heading north of the border to face their divison rivals. A good chunk of the …

It’s funny how, even after The Magic of 2004, I’m so quick to write off this team when things go awry. In the first inning, …

So the Yanks lose last night when Marco Scutaro hits a surprising three-run homer off Mariano Rivera. But let’s look at this a bit closer: …

Somehow it seemed too good to be true. Waffles with Beckett. Hashbrowns and Red Bull with Coco. Remy and D.O. in the house while I’m …

Let me get this straight. Wake goes seven and gives up a mere one run? Mirabelli leads the offense with a home run and a …

And we’re with him. So we’ll just buckle in and get ourselves ready for tonight’s full-on Tim Wakefield action.

The start of a new baseball season is something akin to baptism. It’s officially clean slate time, meaning anyone can bask in the glow of …

Jon Lester continues to work the rehab circuit, and the news continues to be good. On Tuesday, he went four innings against the Columbus Catfish, …

Myself, I was pulling for the no-hitter. Somewhere around the fifth inning, when it was abundantly clear that the Daisuke Matsuzaka Everyday Sunshine Happy! Happy! …

By now, Wake’s gotta be used to this. He goes out there, makes the ball dance, gives up a couple nonsense runs, and then watches …
