I collect baseball cards, root for the Yankees, and manage four fantasy baseball teams (order of importance sometimes varies).

This is awful.
The Yankees are MLB's first team to partner with Polymarket. Polymarket signage will appear on LED displays and home plate boards at Yankee Stadium, visible to both fans in the ballpark and viewers on YES Network and Amazon Prime.

Logan O’Hoppe and Jake Rogers moved. Two cheaper, low-end RHH C options off the board.

The numbers speak for themselves 📊 Since June 11, Xavier Rivas (@Yankees No. 25 Prospect) has been the most DOMINANT pitcher in @MiLB 👀

Officially in on the Jeffers/Stephenson side of the deadline catcher search. As to RP, maybe 2-for-1 with Stephenson + Graham Ashcraft, Sam Moll, Brock Burke, or Tejay Antone. Could also see that for Jeffers + Garrett Acton or Tommy Nance. RHH OF is tricky. Adell? Schmitt?

Seven MLB pitchers this season have 50+ innings and an ERA of 2.00 or better. Yankees are the only team with two in Brent Headrick (51.1 IP, 1.40 ERA) and Paul Blackburn (54 IP, 2.00 ERA) The others are Shohei Ohtani, Jacob Misiorowski, Louie Varland, Troy Melton and Ben Brown

Paul Blackburn averaged 90 mph on his fastball the few short stints he had when he first came up. Now he's throwing 97. I mean that's just absurd!
I was a fan of bringing Blackburn back but I didn't think 2026 Paul Blackburn would be the best reliever on the team and also throw 97 mph.

The Yankees Bullpen Pitching Lab: Brent Headrick was claimed off waivers from MIN on 2/11/25. During his time in MIN, he had a 5.97 ERA and 6.11 FIP across 28.2 IP. As a Yankee, he has a 1.96 ERA across 73.1 IP with an 89:24 K:BB--and the numbers under the hood match.

Most recently, Matt Blake's and Sam Briend's magic has targeted Angel Chivilli. Acquired for old friend T.J. Rumfield (who is crushing it!) from COL this year with a 6.18 ERA and 5.78 FIP. Across 9 IP, he has a 1.00 ERA, 3.43 FIP, 11:3 K:BB, .163 xBAA, and elite 30.6 K%. 🔥

Bummed Halvorsen is off the board. Feels like a surefire pitching lab improvement candidate.
