The 2010 season is almost upon us. Baseball season is getting much closer to being back. We're about two weeks away to Easter Sunday on April 4, when Opening Night will kickoff the season on ESPN, and what a game to open up with between the defending World Series Champions New York Yankees and rival Boston Red Sox. But there will be 29 other teams trying to do what the Yankees did ...

The winter offseason is just about over. We're about to get back to baseball. For those who haven't had much to watch since the Super Bowl, and aren't into college or pro basketball, you are about to get your baseball season going again. This past November, the Yankees got back on top of the baseball world by winning the 2009 World Series over the Phillies, the previous champions, in a very competitive ...

Work has kept me away from Bleacher Report for a couple weeks now, and I do apologize for that. But I am back with another topic for the Yankee section to talk about and discuss. It was reported recently that Yankees General Manager Brian Cashman was not going to talk contract extensions with Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera and Joe Girardi before the season starts in 2010. Relax, this is nothing new from ...

On December 6, I did a featured slide show entitled: Predictions for the Top 25 MLB Free Agents of 2010, which can be seen here: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/303582-predictions-for-the-top-25-mlb-free-agents-of-2010 Many of those free agents have signed, and some have still remained. Of those who signed are: Matt Holliday: Prediction: Cardinals. Signed with: Cardinals Jason Bay: Prediction: Mariners. Signed with: Mets John Lackey: Prediction: Yankees/Mets. Signed with: Red Sox Andy Pettitte: Prediction: Yankees. Signed with: Yankees Randy Wolf: Prediction: Mets. ...

So there have been quite a few rumors going around about some certain player lately possibly heading to the Bronx next winter. He plays first base for the Cardinals and may be the best player in the game today. Still can't figure it out? Shame on you, it's Albert Pujols. That's right, rumors have been running rampant about the Yankees being interested in Pujols for the 2011 ...

We are almost upon the New Year of 2010. A new decade is about to dawn upon us. But, when that decade comes, the Yankees will begin it as the reigning champions of baseball. They will also be still in search of a left fielder for the 2010 season. Just this week, two more options went off the board for the Yankees in the left field sweepstakes. Mark DeRosa signed a two-year, $12 million ...

I've done numerous stories on the Yankees' need for a left fielder. From Jason Bay, Matt Holliday, Johnny Damon, Mark DeRosa and Xavier Nady, they've all been mentioned and in some way linked to the Yankees. There is another name to add to the mix for the Yankees: Jermaine Dye. Now, there are multiple sources with different stories to the Yankees' interest in Dye. Jon Heyman from Sports Illustrated has said that he doesn't ...

Hope everyone has a great Christmas and a wonderful holiday weekend. But now, it's time to get back to the baseball hot stove of the winter. We all know the Yankees are searching for a left fielder for 2010. We also know the Yankees are almost at their budget number for payroll, which is somewhere around $200 million, so they aren't looking to spend a lot. Right now, Jason Bay, Matt Holliday, and ...

We have all been aware of the changes the Yankees made so far in the nearly two months removed since they won the 2009 World Series. They brought in Javier Vazquez, Nick Johnson, and Curtis Granderson, while Hideki Matsui and Phil Coke departed to other teams. As of right now, Johnny Damon's status is unknown. Some feel like he might be back with the Yankees, and some feel like he won't be coming ...

Only two months removed from winning the 2009 World Series, the Yankees have had a very busy offseason. They re-signed Andy Pettitte to a one-year, $11.75 million deal. They made a three way deal to land Curtis Granderson, while sending Austin Jackson and Phil Coke to the Tigers and Ian Kennedy to the Diamondbacks. They signed Nick Johnson to a one-year, $5.5 million deal. And today, they re-acquired Javier Vazquez from the Braves ...
