White Sox promoting Tim Elko for MLB debut gives fans reason to be excited in 2025

5 days ago | southsideshowdown.com | Thomas Carannante

From "Tim Elko is making case to join White Sox with recent stretch" to "White Sox are promoting Tim Elko for MLB debut Saturday" in a matter of days, the fans on the South Side are excited for the first time in a very long time. Chicago reportedly made the decision on Friday evening to promote the fan favorite who has dominated Triple-A for 31 games this year. Elko, who isn't a highly-regarded prospect by any means, is hitting .348 with a 1.100 OPS.

Yankees fans might've overlooked key Carlos Rodón achievement in win vs Guardians

Carlos Rodón! Ride that momentum, buddy! How about that. With the New York Yankees staring down the barrel of a sweep at the hands of the Cleveland Guardians, the left-hander came through and dominated Wednesday afternoon to preserve a 5-1 victory. This followed up a gem against the Rays last week, in which Rodón's six shutout innings saved a 1-0 series opening victory.
Yankees fans will hopefully get look at top prospect amid Trent Grisham absence

Will we actually, though? At this moment in time, the New York Yankees will be without one of their hottest hitters after a Monday roster move. Outfielder Trent Grisham was placed on the paternity list, which will be a notable short-term loss for the lineup. Grisham is hitting .320 with a 1.093 OPS in 20 games so far and has dazzled with the glove in what has been a surprising rebound from his underwhelming 2024 campaign.
Austin Wells history, Devin Williams tightrope secure Yankees' Opening Day win

Hit Frank's music! That's a New York Yankees win on Opening Day; their fourth straight, if you can believe it. They defeated the Milwaukee Brewers in the Bronx by a score of 4-2 on Thursday before the action picks back up again on Saturday. New York led wire to wire in this one, with Austin Wells belting a leadoff homer after Carlos Rodón's impressive 1-2-3 inning in the top of the first.
An optimistic outlook for the 2025 Yankees before the dark pessimism takes over

Why not at least try? ByThomas Carannante|6 minutes agoI've dimmed the lights. I've lit some candles. I've taken my deep breaths. Opening Day will begin in less than 24 hours and we are at the last possible moment before the worst kind of fandom officially has the chance to take over (or at least bleed into the daily discourse). I'm guilty of it. Many others are, too. And we will be again. That's just the nature of the game. And if you root for the New York Yankees, you know it to be in your DNA.
Yankees Injury Update: DJ LeMahieu, Tyler Matzek, Clarke Schmidt

1 month ago | yanksgoyard.com | Thomas Carannante

Some stuff is happening. The 2025 regular season begins Thursday, and the New York Yankees are ready to take on the Milwaukee Brewers. But they'll be in the Bronx without plenty of names due to spring injuries that altered the complexion of the roster. For starters, DJ LeMahieu has been out of action ever since suffering a calf injury in his second at-bat of spring training on March 1. He's on the mend, however, and could go on a rehab assignment in the not-too-distant future.
Possible Yankees' trade reunion with former pitcher dead after Tommy John diagnosis

1 month ago | yanksgoyard.com | Thomas Carannante

Brutal news for the former Yankees prospect. As of right now, the New York Yankees don't need another starting pitcher before Opening Day, but an additional certainly wouldn't hurt after all that's happened. It won't be easy to make up the ground lost by Gerrit Cole being out for the year and Luis Gil likely missing the entire first half. Clarke Schmidt also isn't healthy, which further clouds the picture.
Red Sox's roster moves finalize 2025 starting rotation and see former Yankee released

The Boston Red Sox have a few more decisions to make this spring, but they've gotten closer to finalizing their Opening Day roster before traveling to Texas to face the Rangers on March 27. On Sunday, they announced two key decisions with the pitching staff. In the starting rotation, the Red Sox optioned top prospect Quinn Priester to Triple-A Worcester, which cleared the path for Sean Newcomb to earn the No. 5 spot to start the year.
Brian Cashman's comments after Gerrit Cole surgery are typical Yankees speak

2 months ago | yanksgoyard.com | Thomas Carannante

I'm sorry, did you expect the New York Yankees to drop everything and pay a king's ransom for Marlins ace Sandy Alcantara? It was never happening. But keep that type of ambition front of mind. The Bombers are going to need it in 2025. Following Gerrit Cole's Tommy John surgery news, Yankees general manager Brian Cashman spoke to the media and answered some questions regarding the situation in its totality. YES Network's Meredith Marakovits did an excellent job prodding on a variety of topics.
