    What to think of the Yankees’ off season so far?

    Byyankeebiscuitfan December 17, 2014

    The Yankees signed Chris Capuano to a one year deal, yesterday. I know that the Bronx Bombers are in desperate need of a starting pitcher, but I cannot imagine that Capuano is the guy they are waiting for. He is a guy for the number five slot in the rotation, the part of the team…

    Why not trade Prado for a pitcher?

    Byyankeebiscuitfan December 16, 2014

    Earlier today I made a joke on Twitter about a trading Prado to the Giants in exchange for Bumgarner. But afterall this may be not such a bad idea. If the Yankees bring Rob Refsnyder to play second base and he lives up to the expectations, Prado will be a spare part. Sure he can…

    Yanks sign Headly to four year deal. Another mysterious move by Cashman ?

    Byyankeebiscuitfan December 15, 2014

    The Yankees reportedly signed Chase Headly to a four year deal worth a bit North of $50 million, as MLB.com stated. Sure the guy wanted to play in New York and it is good to have a player aboard that really wants to play with your team, but I still don’t understand this move. Why…

    Rick van den Hurk’s numbers with KBO stats at the background

    Byyankeebiscuitfan December 15, 2014

    Rick van den Hurk had a marvelous 2014 season in the KBO. As we all may know by now, the former Major Leaguer (Marlins, Orioles, and Pirates) won the league’s awards for lowest ERA  and most strikeouts. When you know that the  KBO is a very offensive league with an average of 5.71 runs per…

    Robert Eenhoorn in the center of the attention during Dutch Star Awards

    Byyankeebiscuitfan December 14, 2014

    Tonight the KNBSB (Royal Dutch Baseball and Softball Federation) organized the Star Awards. An evening where several prices were given to softball and baseball players from the Dutch Hoofdklasse. I will focus on the baseball awards. But the night was built around Robert Eenhoorn, former shortstop of the New York Yankees. For years, after his…

    What Yankee fans need to know about Didi Gregorius

    Byyankeebiscuitfan December 12, 2014

    Since the Yankees traded for Didi Gregorius I have seen a lot of comments on Facebook and at other social media. Positive comments, negative comments and very negative comments. In general the press and baseball analysts were quite positive about him. But the fans….. Sure there were fans who think that we need to give…

    Lester to Cubs, Robertson to cross town rivals. What’s next for the Yankees?

    Byyankeebiscuitfan December 10, 2014

    Yesterday both Chicago teams caught some big fishes. The Chicago Cubs reportedly signed Jon Lester to a six year $155 million contract. Despite efforts of Red Sox owner John Henry to get him back to Beantown, Lester opted for the Cubs. Why? Probably because of a couple of former Red Sox front office guys who…
