Yankees’ young star pitcher might be dealing with mechanical issues
New York Yankees starter Luis Gil seemed, at one point not so long ago, on his way to being named the AL Rookie of the Year and potentially starting the All-Star Game for the American League. His ERA before June 20 was 2.03. Now, after allowing 16 earned runs over 9.2 frames in his last three outings, it’s at 3.41. Everybody is concerned.
Yankees lose another series as offense can’t complete comeback against Reds

Scuffling Yankees hear boos as Reds sweep three-game set
A game that started late ended early. There was the anthem standoff between pitchers on both teams that delayed the first pitch, neither side wanting to return to the dugout (the Reds the winners); there was a challenge one batter into the game concerning whether Anthony Volpe had positioned himself on the grass (he hadn’t); there was the third-inning break in play because Austin Wells was forced to switch mitts. By the time the game actually got going, it was just about over. Marcus Stroman allowed three home runs by the fifth inning, which these days is enough of a hole that a...
Why Aaron Judge may soon be getting ‘Barry Bonds treatment’
Aaron Boone said if Aaron Judge continues to hit at his current pace, he may get a bit of the “Barry Bonds treatment,” with opposing teams choosing to walk him intentionally rather than watch him do more damage. “There will be stretches where that probably happens,’’ Boone said before Wednesday’s 3-2 loss to the Reds in The Bronx. Perhaps the better question is why it hasn’t started already, especially with the Yankees lineup in disarray beyond Judge and Juan Soto. On Wednesday, though, Judge was set up to tie the game — or more — with runners on the corners and one out...

Yankees 4, Reds 8: Embarrassment on the Fourth of July
I know there are people — calling into WFAN right now, making comments down below, tweeting at us — who get very, very angry when teams play like this. The Yankees are largely stinking up the joint, and people will get mad. I can’t get there. For me,...

Anthony Volpe is putting up Jackson Holliday numbers, and Aaron Boone has no answers
Anthony Volpe got off to a tremendous start for the New York Yankees, providing them with a leadoff hitter who could consistently get on base ahead of their star players. Through June 5, Volpe was slashing .290/.355/.448, good for an elite batting average, an elite OBP and an elite OPS. At one point in May, Volpe ran off a 21-game hit streak that featured nine multi-hit games.

Recent slump showing Yankees have some real flaws and concerns
The New York Yankees looked like the best team in baseball through the first two-and-a-half months of the season and a legitimate World Series contender.

The biggest flaw of them...
