WIN METHOD - YANKEE BASEBALL BLOG
HOT STOVE NOVEMBER 2025 - FEBRUARY 2026
After another season of making the playoffs, the YANKEES were eliminated in the playoffs. Once again, during this hot stove winter session, the YANKEES, will try to build a team that can take the team into the World Series for the 2026 season. In reality, it all comes down to Hal Steinbrenner. Hal is not his father, does not have a passion for baseball, his only goal is making money. Yes, the YANKEES make him money, but as long as the YANKEES make him money, he does not feel he has to spend more money to make the team better. In Aaron Judge, the YANKEES have the star power to keep the fans coming to the ball park. With Max Fried, Gerrit Cole, the exciting rise of Cam Schlittler and Ben Rice, the fans will come, support and root for the team. As things now stand, the YANKEES will have a competitive and playoff team for 2026, but will they have enough to make the World Series? I will push the WIN METHOD for another year, explain to him who and why. The execution of the plan is on him. The problem, as I see it, is he has other advisors he listens to, with them telling him what he wants to hear, "the YANKEES can be competitive, and make the playoffs without spending more money."
There are so many routes to take to make the team better in my opinion, it likely will cost more money to invest, but the return could very well be worth the extra investment. There are several planned routes available, with each one acquiring different acquisitions and moving present personnel. Any plan will take a full commitment from Hal. Last point on Hal, and I will say it again, he is not Mr.S.
As you can see, WIN METHOD fans, you are taking this site, the world's number one baseball, blog, forum, site to the three billion view mark, likely in December. You are the smartest, most intelligent and knowledgeable baseball fans there are. The stat frauds don't like the WIN METHOD, because the WIN METHOD makes the stat frauds look stupid. Teams and players are not successful because of individual stats, teams and players are successful because of players producing when it counts and matters most to help their team win. Example: The LA Dodgers do not win the WS this season if not for Miguel Rojas, and his home run in the ninth inning with two outs of the seventh game of the WS this season. If he had made out, the game would have been over and the Blue Jays would have won the WS. Miguel Rojas produced when it mattered most at the highest level there is. The stat frauds explain it as luck, a one-off, an anomaly. Stat frauds will forget and ignore Miguel Rojas, the WIN METHOD will remember him forever.
To close this blogpost, and open the hot stove, I would like to thank all you WIN METHOD baseball fans from all over the world, you have made the WIN METHOD the success it has become, with your views and comments, you are spreading the word. The 2026 season is just around the corner, and as always, LETS GO YANKEES and THANK YOU ALL.

I think you hit the nail on the head WIN METHOD. Can only hope for the best over the next few months.
Lets go Yankees.
Cole throwing off the mound already. At this rate of recuperation he could be read to start the season. Think positive Yankee fans.
Sometimes you just can't change people like Hal Steinbrenner. He is in a charge of something he knows nothing about and something his father wanted someone else to run. Just another Yankee roadblock, created from within.
Nice to hear from you again WIN METHOD. Hang in there. Love ya,
I'm salivating at the possibility Cole will be read by opening day. Easy does it, and no setbacks please.
WIN METHOD, regarding your blogpost. I bet you can do several things at a time and pivot from one to the other, but can the Yankee hierarchy?
The Yankees win the team AL Silver Slugger Award. Big deal, meaningless stats. Wins are the only stat that count and are the only thing players and teams should play for.
It means something to the stat frauds, which is exactly why they have earned the name, stat frauds.
With Bellinger on the market I wonder how many suitors will try to low ball him based on his year with the Yankees and the right field advantage when batting.
Jasson Dominguez will be playing winter ball with the Yankees giving him the OK with no restrictions. A big plus for his development time line.
The hot stove is ice cold, not even a flicker. What's up?
How about this for off season news: > Cleveland Indians pitchers Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz have been indicted by prosecutors in Brooklyn on a host of charges related to a scheme to rig bets on pitches thrown in MLB games. Ortiz was arrested in Boston earlier today. Clase is not currently in custody. Stupid is as stupid does.
You make gambling easy and you allow bets on minor garbage, there will be players happy to pick up extra tax free money - until they are caught.
I believe that Yankees will sign a major Japanese impact player this winter.
The Yankees have a new first base coach. Dan Fiorito, the club’s minor league outfield/infield coordinator, will be promoted to the big league staff. Fiorito, 35, played in the Yankees’ minor league system from 2013 to 2016. After his playing days were done, he make the move into coaching. He managed the Gulf Coast League Yankees in 2019, then moved up to manage High-A Hudson Valley in 2021 and Double-A Somerset in 2022.
Let's sign two Japanese players early, and then play the market on any other needs. But think it out before doing something stupid.
Gerrit Cole says that his rehab is "going great"
Pirates Skenes a Yankee? That's what Skenes wants.
Yeah, I heard that. His girl friend is from NYC/north Jersey area and a Yankee fan. Forever what that means.
If you asked me to name the 500 most criminally corrupt politicians today, I would have to name 500 radical leftwing liberal progressive demonrats. All of which are holding high offices today. Senators, US Representatives, Governors, Mayors, and some recent retirees.
My minimum would be a 1000 with a goal of 10,000. Throwing in the socialists also.
Aaron Judge has won the 2025 AL MVP award. It is his third time winning . 🏆🏆🏆⚾⚾⚾🏆🏆🏆
Good for Judge, he deserved it.
The Cal Raleigh fans are whining and crying that their guy didn't win.
Aaron Judge three time MVP. As good as it gets.
The plan, the plan, whatever the plan, I hope the Yankees have a good one.
A reminder and a tenet of the WIN METHOD. You are not the best unless you win.
Thank God, the USA Border Patrol had finally come to Charlotte to clean out the criminal illegals who the demonrats let into the country to destroy America. Support the Border Patrol who are trying to make America safe again.
Our cities and states must be eradicated of illegal aliens who were allowed to enter our country by the most criminally corrupt administration in American history. They all committed treason on our country and on us, we the people.
All sanctuary cities, towns, states must also be 100% eliminated. Anyone interfering with the cleanup of these areas should be arrested, charged, and found guilty of obstruction of justice and sentenced to 20 years in federal prison with no parole of any king.
Someone needs to throw some wood into the hot stove to fire it up.
Yankee resign Ryan Yarbrough. Yarbrough will receive a base salary of $2.5MM with an additional $250K in performance bonuses available to him for 2026 season.
What has happened over the past ten years since Donald Trump came down the escalator and announced he was running for President of the USA. Well. let's see now. The democrat party does not exist anymore as it was. It has suffered a total collapse due to TDS. **Trump Derangement Syndrome"". They democrats are no more, they are now totally and completely radical left wingers, liberals, progressives, socialists, communists, liars, frauds, ignorant, haters, demented, terrorists, anti-Americans, with the sole goal of wiping out the American way of freedom and liberty. They believe men are women, support, defend, and give aid to criminal illegal alien pedophiles, robbers, rapers, arsonists, murderers, and terrorist. The worse is, almost half of the American voters support them. They protest ICE, the Border Patrol, the FBI, and local police from trying to arrest and deport illegal criminals. How utterly sad. There is so much more I could say. We are all living the democrat debacle.
The dems are so screwed up, and are voting for some very screwed up people who are hell bent socialists who will wreck the country. I think things are going to get worse, and there may be big trouble brewing. I just hope President Trump will not be afraid to pull the trigger before it gets to late.
About one third of the people in our country are totally screwed up mentally and/or hate America and/or criminals. That is one third too much. Get rid of them all one way or another.
Yarbrough is a competitor, I like him and his demeanor. I can see him doing well this season, again.
It is sickening to see just how many radical leftwing demoncrat cities there are in America. Crime cesspools, and all for the same reason.
One thing went down under Joe 'Brandon' Bidens tenure as president, the math and reading levels of the American school children, and they went way down. Devastating news.
Today, the Yankees selected the contracts of outfielder Spencer Jones and righties Elmer Rodriguez and Chase Hampton, and place the three players on the 40-man roster, thus making them ineligible to be selected by another club in December’s Rule 5 Draft.
Trent Grisham has accepted the Yankee qualifying offer for 2026.
OK, the Yanks made their choices of who to protect. The Yanks didn't want to lose them, so it should be about time to use them.
Oh my God, I don't believe what I just saw on TV. Several radical insane leftwing progressive senators and congressmen/women were shown in a political advertisement telling our military personnel to refuse to obey a military order given to them if they thought the order was unlawful. That would be treason. These politicians should be asked to resign their positions of office immediately. ------ And then dealt with legally.
I just saw the ad now, how is that talk even allowed. That is treason in my eyes. These politicians are encouraging military personnel to disobey orders and that could be deadly. I can't believe it. the progressives are now socialist communists. They have to be stopped.
The people in the video are trying to incite a rebellion and doing it with lies and their fake reality. They are dangerous people and must be shut down. How in hell do people vote for them.
Hear me one and all. You vote for a liberal - progressive - socialist - democrat - demoncrat - leftwinger, you are voting for people who will destroy you and our country. Wake the #*^& up.
The left of this country is taking this country down, they are backed by billionaires like the Soros family and they will spare no expensed. They hate the good America stands for.
Bad stuff going on with the democrat socialists. TDS is making them crazy.
Isn't what these politicians are doing exactly what they lied about President Trump of doing and he didn't say or do. They made it up. Now they are making ads encouraging, inciting, and supporting treason by our volunteer military. These people should be in jail, and not fomenting rebellion.
President Trumps response to the demonrats video. What they said was seditious and dangerous to the country. Punishable by prison time and execution.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
The six liberal demonrat scum who told our military men and women to disobey orders given to them by their superiors if they thought the orders were illegal. When asked to name or describe an illegal order given, they could not. These six lying corrupt liberal radical leftwing progressive demonrat politicians are un-American. Everyone out there who voted for them should be embarrassed and if not embarrassed should see a doctor about your severe depilating TDS condition which renders you crazy ignorant.
The disgusting six. Yet brain dead people fall for their lies and BS. While Trump is trying to make America great again, they do whatever they can to prevent him from doing so. They are the worst of the worst. So bad, that they looked the other way as their colleagues ran a corrupt America destroying shadow government for four years using a demented corrupt dumb man as foil president.
Happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy with your family and friends. And get your Christmas shopping done.
Happy Thanksgiving and turkey, and stuffing, and cranberry, and sweet potatoes, and gravy.
Almost to the minute right now, JFK was assassinated.
Hope everyone is ready for Thanksgiving. if not, you better get on the ball. Happy Thanksgiving.
Everyone, wherever you are, or are going to be, have a fantastic Thanksgiving.
Hot stove heating up as Ranger trade second baseman Semien to Mets for outfielder Nimmo in a one for one deal.
Happy Thanksgiving and lets go Yankees.
Happy Thanksgiving, enjoy who you are with and what you are eating. DO NOT drink alcohol and drive.
It's Thanksgiving Eve, Turkey tomorrow, Happy Thanksgiving Yankee fans.
Two National Guardsmen shot to death in Washington DC this afternoon. Time for President Trump to drop the hammer on all illegal immigrants, sanctuary cities, and the people who support them and terrorists. This includes all politicians and civilians who support the scum of America. Get these crap people out of America.
The heck with the hammer, drop the guillotine on them.
Say a prayer for the two murdered Guardsmen and their families. How horrible.
Nathan, your prayers worked, both men are alive.
West Virginia Gov. Patrick Morrisey initially said that the guard members were from his state and had died, but he later walked that back, saying his office had received “conflicting reports” about their status.
The parade is starting. Happy Thanksgiving!!!
God bless America. Happy Thanksgiving to one and all.
Turkey day. Celebrate with reverence and joy. Happy Thanksgiving.
