The Pinstripe Podcast

What an average week. 3-3, should have been 4-2, but stuff happened, there are things to be happy about, things to be upset about. But the Yankees did break even so you can't complain too much. This week, Scotty talks about how the Yankees are looking up, but what they've also done wrong. He also talks about plenty of things that happened around the league and a little about what happened in other...

Well there's not many other things to describe how the Yankees played this past week. The latest series against the Red Sox had really no positives to come out from it. The Angels series was going okay but Lexi and Scotty did find some positives from this team. The two talked plentiful about what the Yankees weren't doing and other disappointments that they felt about the team this past week. Besi...

The Yankees are starting to look good. Gary Sanchez is looking like the Gary we like, ripping dingers, Luke Voit came off the IL with a BANG and the defense is still solid. Although all of these things are good, the Yanks are still not perfect and we saw an almost perfect bullpen show their flaws. The sticky stuff didn't seem to affect Cole all that much with two huge comeback starts. Around the l...

A division win against a rival, now that's new. After a somewhat rocky series against the Phillies the Yankees have jumped back into the groove of things and have started to look like the team we know. This week Scotty breaks who and what has been working so well for the Yanks along with what works, but could still improve a bit. He also talks plenty about the first week of the new pitching rules...

With the MLB now cracking down on the use of substance by pitchers, some big name players seem to be put on the spot on how they can preform. Gerrit Cole is certainly one of them, and Lexi and Scotty talk about Cole's potential use along with who else could have used it and their opinion on the situation. Along with that, they talk about the absolute roller coaster of weeks that the yankees have h...

After an embarrassing series against the Tigers, the Yankees pull two against the division rival Rays. Is this a good sign as to what’s to come? In this week's episode, Scotty looks over the good and the bad that the Yankees showed off including the incredible stats that the bullpen has been showing up recently and Gary's goofs. With All-Star voting just starting, Scotty touched upon his thoughts...

This week Lexi and Scotty celebrate their 50th episode! They go in-depth about a great week of pitching from the Yankees starters, especially against a top-tier team like the White Sox. The two also discuss the ever-expanding IL list for the Bronx Bombers, with new additions, Corey Kluber and Luke Voit (again). A quick look at the standing all across the MLB clearly shows the immense amount of com...

Oh, you think there are too many no-no's in baseball? Let's add a Yankee one to that list. Corey Kluber put himself in the history books this week and while it was beautiful and amazing, there were other things (unfortunately) to talk about. I rattled on today about treating starting pitchers fairer, how Gio continues to be the heart of our offense and what outfielder I think the Yankees should tr...

IT's all Scotty this week as we add two more series wins to the Yankees season. A great outing by Monty and an even better one from the Cole train has us feeling good about the Yanks. Couldn't have had a better week than we did, everything is starting to look up compared to the team we saw just weeks ago. Judge slumped and recovered, Torres decides to rev up and Gio, well he's Gio. A further look...

Is there really anything better than Yankee baseball right now? Starting pitching is HERE, Stanton Streak is INSANE, and our relievers are UNHITTABLE. Wow, this is the team we signed up for, this is the team we love. Hear us just rain the team with compliments and admiration because there is nothing we love more than this team right now. Follow us on Instagram @pinstripe.podcast

Last week was just a fluke, right? The Yankees get back on track this week and have won games! Not only did our offense wake up, but our starting pitchers performed like they have played baseball before. Wow, what a week. But it wasn't all happy things. Michael King is still stuck in this purgatory of is he or isn't on the team, and we sadly let go of Mike Tauchman. However, hopefully, these thing...

There is no other way to explain this week other than right out of hell. One of the slowest starts in Yankee history has made them nearly unwatchable, and it's hard to find any goodness in this team right now. A flat offense, one-performing pitcher, and a lack of heart have made this team seem like they don't want to be on the field. We actually gave up on talking about the Yankees because we just...

Him just wondering where our team went? Has anyone seen them? The Yankees put out a depressing show this week and most of it has to stem from our offense. Runs have been hard to come by for this team and starting pitching hasn't been giving them a whole lot of chances either. Our shining light has been our bullpen, but we can't rely just on them, they need to stay efficient! We tried to work out w...

Happy first week of baseball!!! While this is the happiest week of the year, there are obviously already things to question about the team's performance. Yes, we know this is a small sample size and things will change as the season goes on and blah blah blah, but we had to do some good old complaining. Our failure to score runners is nearly laughable but is also definitely painful. The bright spot...

Hello and welcome to a fun and funky episode for the beginning of this AWESOME TIME. Today we talked our way through the first 3 innings of the Yankees Opening Day game against the Blue Jays. After some technical difficulties, Lexi and Scotty got to be (almost) on the same page. It's hard to put into words how good it feels to see baseball played again and mean something, so let's just dive right...

Don't mind the Yankees, there are already rumors about what they're doing NEXT OFFSEASON. Corey Seager has the attention of most of the league, and the Yanks are no exception. Let's fantasize about how this powerhouse pick-up could change the topography of our team, but then let's come back to right now. We've got a battle for our last bench place that is being decided right now! Tauchman and Bruc...

We know there isn't much to talk about with Spring Training, we're struggling too. With limited televised games, half the time we don't even see what's happening. However, we are aware of the absolutely insane performances some of our pitchers are giving. We talk about a few of our standouts from the past week and how we feel about their likelihood to be in the rotation this year. We also discuss...

This week was full of explosive offense and awesome pitching performances. As we inch closer and closer to opening day, we try to figure out just who is going to make the bubble of the 40 man. With pitching help needed and that back-up defensive role up for grabs, it is a hot topic that we cannot get enough of. Who do you think should make the team? Let us know on our Instagram @pinstripe.podcast

The time has finally arrived: BASEBALL GAMES ARE HERE!! Yeah, sure they're spring training games and don't mean anything but still! It's baseball! While nothing that happens here holds a significant amount of weight, there are still some notable moments. Gary's comeback season? Derek Dietrich making the 40 man? How about Severino's progress? Just because they don't go on the record doesn't mean th...

We are so close to Yankee baseball, it's crazy. While our position players arrived this week, all we could talk about was our pitching staff. With news breaking about Schmidt, then Germán apologizes, and our new additions getting settled in it's hard not to be excited about them. We just can't wait to see them play some ball. To keep up with us between episodes follow us on Instagram @pinstripe.po...

SPRING TRAINING IS HERE! Well sort of. Pitchers and catchers have arrived and we could not be more excited. With action coming from all our new arms and seeing our returners, today was a goooooood day. Along with huge news around the league, there was a lot to talk about today. For league news throughout the week, follow @pinstripe.podcast on instagram.

We are under a week until pitchers and catchers report to Florida and we could not be more excited. With Taillon constantly showing how excited he is and Judge and Stanton taking a new approach to their offseason prep, this year is pretty exciting. Along with a hyperactive week across the league, there was a lot to cover this week. With a pit stop to talk about football, this week had a whole lot...

Nolan Arenado is the hottest third baseman in baseball and he just flew out of Colorado on over to the Cardinals. Scotty and Lexi are in disbelief and talk about how this will affect the American League Central. They also got to talk all good things about Fernando Tatis Jr. gracing the cover of MLB The Show and which console Scotty is going to buy it on. With one of their last team dives, the pair...

Pitchers were all the news this week for the New York Yankees. With the trade for Jameson Taillon, the signing of Darren O'Day, and the official loss of Masahiro Tanaka, the arms were all the rage to talk about this week. Is Taillon going to be effective? Will submarine pitcher O'Day be a good fit for the pinstripes? We take our guesses on what we hope to see out of these hopeful arms this season....

The Yankees got their MAN!!! DJ is now a Yankee for the rest of his career, and we could not be happier about it. We also snatched up Kluber, so we had so much fun Yankee news to talk about this week you won't want to miss it! Obviously, there was movement all over the league, so there was so much action. The Padres still have more prospects, the Blue Jays snag talent, and then we dove into the bo...
