Laird breaks out of his mini-slump
River Avenue Blues — Greg Fertel at Pending Pinstripes sat down for a chat with 2009 4th round pick Adam Warren. It’s pretty funny to see that Warren doesn’t even know where his velocity spike came from last year. Give it a read, it’s well worth your time. Mike Dunn was the only Yankee farmhand that will participate in the AzFL Rising Stars Showcase. It’s basically the All Star Game. Here’s two days worth of updates: AzFL Surprise (10-2 loss to Phoenix on Monday) Brandon Laird: 2 for 4, 1 R, 1 2B – breaks out of an 0 for 14 slump AzFL Surprise (6-5 win over ...

Open Thread: AzFL Rising Stars Showcase
River Avenue Blues — Things in Yankeeland are a little slow these days, but for all the right reasons. Everyone is still celebrating the club’s 27th World Title, and the most exciting part of the Hot Stove Season doesn’t start for another two weeks or so. It’s been just three days, but I already miss the hell out of baseball. If, like me, you’re battling the withdrawals, you can check out the Arizona Fall League Rising Stars Showcase tonight on MLB Network. It’s essentially the AzFL All Star Game, and even though Stephen Strasburg won’t be playing because of a muscle strain in his neck, the game still will feature oodles of talent. ...

Today in The Journal News
The LoHud Yankees Blog — It’s only been a few days since the final game of the World Series, and already the Yankees are transitioning to next year. Some of the players have already cleared out their lockers, fans chanted “28″ at the parade and the free agent decision making process will begin shortly. That’s what I wrote about in today’s paper. And with that, I’m going to start making my way to the airport so I can fly to Chicago for the General Managers’ meetings. These are not to be confused with December’s winter meetings, but we can all hope for some nice hot stove gossip. And maybe even some cold, hard facts! By the way, ...
