The New York Yankees have already made big changes this offseason, but there are several more things that need to be done after Jan. 1 to get this team over the hump.
There are a few New Year's resolutions that Yankees management needs to make in an effort to ensure the most success in the upcoming season. The Bombers have been very active this offseason, but there's more to be done and more things that need to change.
Barring any major shakeups, the Yankees stand to enter next season as one of ...
In missing the playoffs for only the second time since 1995, New York Yankees' general manager Brian Cashman was tasked with making sure that 2013 was just an exception to the rule.
The club entered the offseason with several players leaving via free agency. Among them were All-Star second baseman Robinson Cano who found his riches in Seattle and center fielder Curtis Granderson, whose move was somewhat shorter (he signed with the Mets).
To date, Cashman has already addressed the offensive deficits with some marquee names from the free-agent market. He's also ...

In the offseason thus far, the New York Yankees have certainly proven their intention to contend for a championship in the 2014 MLB season—at least on the offensive side of the ball. Big-money acquisitions like Brian McCann, Jacoby Ellsbury and Carlos Beltran imply a win-now mentality that strips any rebuilding talk of its validity and rationality.
But pitching is another story, and they can't show up on Opening Day in Houston without confidence in a starting rotation. Even with top-to-bottom offensive production, they still won't be championship contenders—or postseason participants—without five ...

The New York Yankees bolstered their lineup in a big way this offseason by signing top-tier free agents Carlos Beltran, Jacoby Ellsbury and Brian McCann. As for the pitching aspect of the equation—well, the organization still has work to do if it plans on contending next year.
At the time of this writing, the Yankees are set to open the 2014 season with a starting rotation of CC Sabathia, Hiroki Kuroda, Ivan Nova, David Phelps and Michael Pineda. Suffice it to say their Nos. 4 and 5 starters leave something to be desired. ...

Like it or not, Robinson Cano won't be wearing pinstripes on Opening Day this season.
Cano has hung up his New York Yankees pinstripes to go out west and play for the Seattle Mariners, as the M's were willing to pay him a nice chunk of change to anchor their lineup for the next decade.
The $240 million that Cano received from Seattle was a figure that the Yankees were never willing to go close to, even though Jay Z offered general manager Brian Cashman a "discount" that would bring his potential ...

In 1984, the Yankees changed their informal slogan from "Billy's Back" (because, of course, Billy Martin was no longer the manager) to "The Biggest Hit Show in New York."Turns out they were 30 years ahead of their time.On Feb. 6 (Babe Ruth's birthday, by the way), the play "Bronx Bombers" opens on Broadway's Circle in the Square Theatre. Many of the most pivotal Yankees in history are portrayed, from Ruth to Joe DiMaggio to Yogi Berra to Mickey Mantle, right up to Derek Jeter, with a few others in between, ...
