Locked On Yankees - Daily Podcast On The New York Yankees

The New York Yankees beat the Toronto Blue Jays, 4-2 on Thursday night to win their series three out of four. The star of the series was Aaron Judge (naturally) who hit a first inning home run and nearly hit a second one in the sixth (he missed it by inches. He finished the series 6-14 with four home runs and tonight’s home run was his 32nd against Toronto in his career. Nestor Cortes looked a lot better in this start and he lasted six innings and gave up two runs. The bullpen came in and shut the door and it was an all-around great win for the Yankees. We answered your questions for Fanmail Friday. Remember you can ask us questions all week just leave them in the comments of our videos. We tell you who is hot (guess who?), who’s cold, and who’s heating up. And we preview the pitching matchups with Cincinnati including the return of Luis Severino!

The New York Yankees lost to the Toronto Blue Jays, 3-0 in 10 innings, thanks to a walk-off home run by Danny Jansen. The game was pretty quiet leading up to that moment as both teams’ starters and relievers shut down the offenses for the first nine and a half innings. Gerrit Cole pitched a gutty six innings with six strikeouts against Chris Bassit, who lasted seven with seven strikeouts. Stacey and Steve wonder if Aaron Boone made a couple of questionable decisions in this one and discuss whether or not they’d do things differently. Then they update you on all of the injured Yankees players, including Luis Severino, who will be with the big club and starting on Sunday in Cincinnati thanks to Domingo Germán’s 10-game suspension. Then Stacey and Steve are joined once again by Craig Ballard of Locked On Blue Jays to preview the final game of the series between Nestor Cortes and Jose Berríos.

The New York Yankees defeated the Toronto Blue Jays in the second game of a four-game set, 6-3 and boy was it eventful. Stacey and Steve take you through the craziness of Tuesday’s contest which included rare home runs, monster home runs, sticky stuff, and coaches yelling at other coaches like school yard bullies.We dissect the allegations of cheating against Aaron Judge and how it has all snowballed. We discuss the sticky stuff situation with Domingo Germán and how this will affect the Yankees rotation for the next couple of weeks. What can they do in his absence and does this mean we may be seeing someone we weren’t expecting to see so soon? And we preview Game Three of this already extremely dramatic series between Gerrit Cole and Chris Bassit with Craig Ballard of Locked On Blue Jays.

The New York Yankees beat the Toronto Blue Jays 7-4 in the opener of a four-game set. And speaking of openers, the Yankees used one on Monday night! Jimmy Cordero who opened for Johnny Brito, Cordero pitched two perfect innings and Brito pitched five and ont-third innings before running into trouble in the eighth inning but that was partly because of a Gleyber Torres error. On the offensive side Aaron Judge had a big night and we discuss that. Is he back? It sure does seem like it. The Yankees offense had a good night against Blue Jays starter Alek Manoah who issued a career-high seven walks in his four innings of work. Then as we teased on Monday’s show, we’re talking about Mariano Rivera’s comments about Clay Holmes and his role as the Yankees’ closer. Mo had some interesting things to say about Holmes and about himself. The comparisons may shock you and finally, we have Craig Ballard of Locked On Blue Jays joining us to preview the Domingo Germán-Kevin Gausman matchup on Tuesday night.

*Editors note* Apologies for Steve's audio. It will be fixed for tomorrow's episode and moving forward.

The New York Yankees had an interesting weekend against the Tampa Bay Rays. Ultimately they would split the four-game set but there were a lot of things to be happy about and some things to be confused about. The Anthonys, Rizzo and Volpe had nice offensive performances, as did Aaron Judge. Wandy Peralta can be called upon to close two games in a row. Then you have Gerrit Cole grinding through his start on Friday night, and Nestor Cortes imploding on Saturday but the Yankees still winning those games thanks to the explosive offense. On Sunday, a questionable bullpen decision bit the Yankees and they dropped another close one. Plus, it’s Minors Monday or what we like to call Andres Chapparo Monday. He was on fire this past week and as always Steve highlights the top performances from all levels of the Yankees system. Then we tell you who is hot, cold and heating up. Spoiler alert: We already mentioned who is hot and who is heating up. And the Yankees are going up to Canada to face the Blue Jays for a four-game set we do our best to preview the pitching matchups.

The New York Yankees lost to the Tampa Bay Rays 8-2 on Thursday night in the first game of a four-game set. Stacey and Steve discuss the game’s performances. Domingo Germán pitched well enough but the offense couldn’t get anything going against Drew Rasmussen and then the Yankees bullpen blew up and the Rays ran away with it just like they’re running away with the AL East. It’s Fanmail Friday and Stacey and Steve answer your questions (Remember: you can leave questions in our comment section all week leading up to Friday and we will answer them!) Then they preview the pitching matchups for the rest of the weekend. Are Friday and Saturday must-win games? At this point, yes.

The New York Yankees won their second game in a row, and Clarke Schmidt pitched through six innings for the first time in his career! So they are guaranteed a series win and will go for the sweep on Wednesday. We discuss the highlights of the game, including the big third inning when the Yankees scored five runs. We talk about the impact of having Aaron Judge in the lineup and how it helps the Yankees. Also, Tuesday was the first time Harrison Bader and Judge were in the lineup together all season. Then we discuss the bullpen situation. The Yankees don’t have a closer. Or at least they haven’t named anyone officially, so we go through the candidates and give our thoughts about who has the best chance of getting the job. And we preview the pitching matchup between the A’s and Yankees in the finale.

The New York Yankees were powered by a couple of unexpected hitters in their 7-2 victory over the Oakland A’s on Monday night; Oswaldo Cabrera, who hadn’t hit a home run since April 21, and Aaron Hicks, who hadn’t hit a home run since September 2022. DJ LeMahieu and Gleyber Torres also went deep in a ‘must win’ game (and series, let’s be real) for the Yankees in a game against old friend JP Sears. Nestor Cortes lasted five innings and had a better start than his last outing and the bullpen did nice job closing things out. We discuss the Luis Severino situation and lay out a timeline of what’s been happening with him and voice our concerns/confusion over what’s been happening between him and the Yankees with regards to his injury and his rehab timetable. Then we preview the pitching matchup for Game 2 of the series between Drew Rucinski and Clarke Schmidt.

The New York Yankees lost two out of three to the Tampa Bay Rays in Tropicana Field this weekend and Gerrit Cole had his first dud of the season BUT Harrison Bader was hot hitting two home runs, a triple, he drove in seven and he played out of his mind. Will this be how Bader plays all season? We discuss it. Plus we discuss whether or not the Yankees should give up on trying to win the AL East now that they’re 10 games back of Tampa. And it’s Minors Monday! The Yankees system had a great week! There were incredible pitching performances in Somerset, Hudson Valley and Tampa, great hitting performances in Somerset, Scranton, Hudson Valley and Tampa, plus there are some guys you may not have heard of doing great things in all levels of the system. And we go through who’s hot, cold and heating up this week before we preview the pitching matchups in the three-game set against Oakland which starts on Monday night.
