THE 2026 BASEBALL SEASON -- 162 GAMES TO PLAYOFFS
Here we are 23 games into the 2026 season with a 14-9 record. At this point I feel very comfortable in saying the Yankees will make the playoffs, and win the AL East division. The YANKEE win total for the regular season should be about 101 wins. I broke the season into thirds, with 54 games in each third. Because the YANKEE starting pitching is just getting better and better with disabled list pitchers returning. Cole and Rodon will be back very soon, and I am not counting on Schmidt at this point in time. I am also looking forward for Volpe's return, returning as an improved hitter and fielder. Watch and see for yourself.
Now let me break down the three 54 game thirds into actual win/loss numbers. Remember WIN METHOD fans, wins are the only number in baseball that determines the best players and teams. Frist third, I went with a low 27-27 record. For the middle third, with Cole and Rodon's return, with Fried, Schlittler, Warren, Gil, and Weathers available, look for the bullpen being better also, with Cruz, Bednar, Headrick, and Hill being the top holdovers. I am not even mentioning Schmidt's return. Middle third record 36-18. Then we come to the final third of games. With the strength of the roster and the strength of the YANKEE minor leaguers, look for the YANKEES to make deals, if needed, to upgrade the lineup. The final third is the race to the finish line and the playoffs. Record 38-16. That will make for a 101-61 won/loss record. Not to shabby.
This blog, your blog, the fans blog is moving slowing but surely to the three billion views level. You, the most intelligent and knowledgeable baseball fans in the world are making this all happen. More baseball fans, each day are learning and realizing that WINS are the only stat in all of baseball that matters, and the only stat that counts in determining who are the best players and teams. Fans from all over the world read this blog everyday. As a matter of fact, the WIN METHOD blog had a fan visit from a country I didn't know existed. I had to look it up. Burkina Faso.
As always, thank you all, every last one of you, with sincere and fond memories, to those fans who have passed away, to the original WIN METHOD fans, to the fans who have come on board along the way, to the newest fans, and to the fans yet to join all of you and the WIN METHOD blog. THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH and LETS GO YANKEES.

«Oldest ‹Older 601 – 800 of 1117 Newer› Newest»Scoreless after four innings. The Yankees have sent 12 batters to the plate, 7 haven't hit the ball and have struck out, the other 5 have hit the ball and have made out. No Yankee has reached base. Schlittler hasn't given up a run either. Very sad indeed.
It worked, the old reverse jinx. Yankee 5th inning, walk, walk, Caballero 3 run HR. Schlittler did give up a run in bottom of 5th. 3-1 Yankees.
Yankees win 5-1. Schlittler goes 8 innings allowing 1 run for the win. Bednar closes it out. Caballero carries the load, 3 run HR and solo HR. Rice solo HR. for all five Yankee runs.
Wish Schlittler could start again tonight.

Say a prayer and hope for a miracle.
Wondered what the over/under was for Yankees alone was tonight. Fad Duel has it at 3 1/2. If the Yankees go over they could win. The way they have been playing they should be under, but could still win. Warren likely can't duplicate what Schlittler did last night.
Yankees leading 3-2 thru three innings on Rice three run home run.
Warren getting hammered again, looks like batting practice. Six runs and he is still in the 4th inning.
Final. Yankees lose 6-4. Warren gives up all six runs early and loses game by himself. Rice 3 run HR only Yankee big hit of the game as they squandered several chances by striking out 16 times.
Another stupid loss. Need one more win.

If Cole thinks he is the 'ace' of the staff, then he needs to do what Schlittler did and prove it.
I get the impression that Cole seems to be holding back for some reason. No way to know if it is true or not. He has been throwing too many cookies, and getting hit hard too often. Not just the hits, but the outs also.
Yankees down 1-0 after 3.
Yankees trail 3-0 after seven as the lineup has failed all night.
Final. Yankees lose 3-0. Cole gets the loss. Lineup gets nothing.
There is a hole in the Yankee boat and it is slowly sinking. Something has to be done soon to stop the leak or everyone will drown.

Blackburn starting for Yankees which will be a bullpen game. Another loss will hurt.
Yankees win a six run seven hit third inning for a 6-1 lead. It's been a long time, three weeks since they have scored six runs in a game, and here they did it in one inning.
Yanks up 7-3 after 4.
Rice 3 run HR in 6th gives Yankees 10-3 lead and some breathing room.
Theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnn 12-4.
Final. Yankees win 12-4. A much needed win to split the four game series with the Tampa Bay Rays. The game was a bullpen game for the Yankees who used seven pitchers. Yarborough was credited with the win and Headrick a hold. The entire lineup contributed to the Yankee win by producing when it mattered most. Wells had a solo HR and Rice had a solo and a three run HR.
A big 12-4 win today when most fans didn't expect it, over the Tampa Bay Rays to split the four game series. Yankees head to DC for a three game weekend series with the Nationals. Then the All-Star game break followed by the second half of the season and the race to the playoffs.
Weekend series Yankee rotation, Weathers, Schlittler, and Warren.

Weathers has been throwing batting practice lately, about time to pitch a big game win for a change. Wouldn't that be lovely?
Rain delay in DC in effect.
Yankees lead 1-0 after two innings on a Ben Rice home run.
Yanks up 2-1 after 4.
The Yanks come to bat in the 9th down 3-2. Need a rally. Dominguez single followed by Jazz 2 run home run for a 4-3 lead. Wells with a solo home run for a 5-3. Bednar who pitched the eighth inning is staying in to pitch the night and earn the win.
Bednar with a no drama 1,2,3 ninth for the win.
Theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnn 5-3.
Final. Yankees win 5-3. Weathers kept Yanks in game. Hill gave 2 HR's to put Yanks down 3-2. Chisholm 2 run HR and Wells solo HR, his second of the game, in 9th give Yankees 5-3 lead. The first 2 Yankee runs were a HR from Rice and Wells.. Bednar pitched the 8th and 9th shutout innings to earn the win. Yankees needed that.
Dominguez solo, Wells two solo, and Chisholm 2 run home run were all the Yankee runs tonight in Washington as they eked out a come from behind 5-3 win. The bad note, Hill gave up a 2-1 Yankee lead allowing back to back home runs putting the Yankees down 3-2 in the 7th inning. But Yanks did come back.

Big win last night, need another this afternoon. Schlittler starting should help, Lineup scoring run (multiple crooked numbers) would also help.
Schlittler gives up two home runs in first inning. Down 2-0.
Yanks down 2-0 after 4.
Yankees do it again, down 2-0 to start 8th inning. McMahon HR, Grisham 2 run HR, Goldschmidt HR. 4-2 Yanks mid 8th.
Cruz scoreless 8th for a hold, Bednar scoreless 9th for save. A come from behind 4-2 win.
Final. Yankees win 4-2. Schlittler goes 6 2/3 innings for a no decision. Headrick 1/3 inning. Cruz 1 inning hold, Bednar 1 inning save. Yankee down 2-0 from first inning thru the seventh. Then do what they did last night, come from behind with 4 runs in 8th. When it mattered most in order McMahon HR, Grisahm 2 run HR, Goldschmidt HR. Yankees playing cripples with injuries take this series with a sweep chance tomorrow.
These two games could have been losses. If they were that would have meant a big swing to the negative in the W/L record.
Warren starts tomorrow for Yanks. As Weathers, he has been off, and needs to come up with a quality game at minimum. With the Yankee lineup, who knows what you'll get and when you will get it.

Would be a nice end to first half of the season if Yankees win today, Same story, Warren throws a quality start game and the Yankee lineup produces when it matters most would do it.
Yanks down 1-0 after 2.
Yanks lead 2-1 thru five.
Final. Yankees win 5-3. Three games in a row, come from behind wins late in the games. Warren five innings gives up 1 run and kept Yankees alive. Hill 2/3 allows a run. Chivilli 1 inning 1 unearned run on Chisholm 2 out error. Yarbrough 1/3 inning 0 runs and gets the win. Blackburn pitched 8th and 9th innings six up six down for the great save. Chisholm and Wells with rbi singles in 5th giving Yanks 2-1 lead. After falling behind 3-2, Rice delivers the produce when it matters most hit of the game, a 2 rbi triple to put Yankees up 4-3. Caballero with a sacfly in 9th for the insurance run and 5-3 win. Great game if I say so myself. Perfect positive ending going into the All-Star break.
Theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnnn, 5-3 sweep series.
What a nice weekend. Three come from behind Yankee wins. Big efforts from the bullpen. And big produce when it matters most hits made for exciting wins.
All Star Game break. Rest, relax, recuperate, and get ready for the playoff run. Hope we get some big bodies back in the lineup. Plus the pitching staff looks like Schlittler, Fried, Cole, Rodon, Warren/Weathers.
REST IN PEACE -- SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM ✝️ A TRUE AMERICA FIRST SENATOR AND PATRIOT.
MLB All-Star game tonight. Yankees host Dodgers for three night games this weekend. I wish that the Yankees were healthy. Should be a good weekend of quality baseball.
Lindsey Graham's sister has been named to take his seat in the Senate until the November election. Will be hard to replace Lindsey Graham. He was true American and always tried to do what was best for the American people.
WORLD CUP SEMI FINAL HALF TIME SCORE: FRANCE 0 -- SPAIN 1.
Spain beats France 2-0. Spain has only given up 1 goal in all their World Cup games this year.
American League 2 National League 0 after two innings on a 2 rbi single from Bellinger and a rbi single from Rice.
American League 3 National League 0 after 7.
Final. American League wins 4-0. Bellinger 2 rbi single, Rice rbi single, and Vargas solo HR. Bellinger named MVP of game. Bellinger and Rice hits for 3 first inning runs came with two outs and were produce when it matters most hits. AL pitchers struck out 15 NL batters. Another big Al win.
In last night's All Star game the AL had the right guys hitting at the right time (when it mattered most) and the two Yankees, Bellinger and Rice both produced when it mattered most. The entire AL pitching staff did their job for nine inning. Nothing but goose eggs, zeroes, nada, nothing, nil, zips for the NL. Pitching when it mattered most from start to finish.
Nice having a couple more day off for the guys to spend a few days with family and or do whatever they want to do. I am enjoying the off days myself.
Argentina 0 England 0 at halftime of semifinal WORLD CUP MATCH.
Argentina down 1-0 for most of game, plays a furious second half and scores w goals in the last minutes of the World Cup semi-final soccer game to win 2-1. Argentina will next play Spain in the final game of the 2026 WORLD CUP. -- DON'T MISS IT.
That was some great soccer game this afternoon. High intensity, end to end action, cross bar, posts, and goalkeeper saves. Hope the game Sunday doesn't overlap the Yankee game.
The Yankees will start Gerrit Cole, Ryan Weathers and Cam Schlittler vs. the Dodgers this weekend.
A reminder for everyone. HAPPY 250TH BIRTHDAY AMERICA never forget!

Another big game. I guess they are all big games when you playing without your best players.
Final. Yankees lose 8-2. Schlittler takes the loss and Yankee bullpen gets hammered. In other word, no contest.

Bottom and fifth no outs bases loaded. Yanks don't score, K, foul popup, K. The K's both were swing and misses at pitches not near the plate.

Final. Yankees win 2-1. Bednar gets the win going 1 2/3 when it mattered most scoreless innings. Chisholm with game winning HR in 8th. Yanks lose games Schlittler and Cole started, and win game Yarbrough started. Didn't hit in any games. Go figure/

How about a winning streak.
Lets go Yankees.
Slugfest at Stadium tonight. Too bad Weathers is garbage again. Yanks up 8-5 after three innings. A long way to go.
Yanks up 8-5 after 5.
The slugfest turned into a goose egg fest. Yanks lead still 8-5 now thru 8 innings.
Final. Yankees win 8-5. Weathers gave up all 5 runs in 4 2/3 innings. Couldn't even win a game the Yankees scored 8 runs for him. Bullpen went final 4 1/3 innings allowing 0 runs. Chivlli got the win, Headrick and Hill got holds, and Cruz got the save. Jazz carried the lineup with a 2 run HR and 3 run HR. Caballero 2 rbi double, 1 run scored on error. Downer -- Weathers. Positive -- Chisholm and bullpen.
Nice win with Jazz making it happen. Caballero 2 rbi double was really big when it mattered most also.
The WIN METHOD YANKEE BASEBALL blog is the best I have ever been to. No garbage, no adds, no signup, no moderators. Just follow a couple of rules. No other forum and site even comes close.
Lets get another win today. Weather permitting.

Extra innings tied at 3.
Yankees blow it in tenth as Cruz had nothing today. Lose 5-3.
Final. Yankees lose 5-3 in ten innings. Cruz takes the loss allowing 2 runs in tenth inning. Yankee bats anemic again except for one swing from Rice who hit a three run HR in seventh to tie game at 3-3, taking Cole off the hook for the loss after giving up 3 runs. Rubber game tonight.

Theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnn 2-0.
Final. Yankees win 2-0. Take series. Fried goes 5 brilliant innings in his return to the mound after 2 months on the DL. Allows 0 runs and 1 hit. Chivilli a scoreless inning. Blackburn 2 scoreless innings for the win. Warren 2/3 innings for a hold, and Hill 1/3 inning for the save. Great pitching wins it. Bats, ugh, but got the game winning hits when it mattered most in 7th inning. Dominguez a rbi double followed by Volpe rbi single. That was it. Off day tomorrow.
Nice to have Fried back. What a nice first start on a pitch count. Five innings, no runs, one hit.

Could be another pitchers duel. Lineup is the key.
Pitchers duel first three innings. 0-0. Nine up nine down for both pitchers.
Yanks up 1-0 after 5.
The idiot Boone does it again. Allows Schlittler to start the 8th inning with a 1-0 lead. Schlittler gets the first batter, then a single, then hits the batter with a pitch. Torre then replaces Schlittler with Headrick. Headrick instead of starting a clean innings is in a major jam with two on and one out. Headrick comes through when it mattered most, but it wasn't easy by any means. Some help from the defense didn't hurt. 1-0 Yankees after 8 in a fantastic pitchers duel/
Yanks and Yankees win the pitchers duel 1-0. Schlittler earns the win with 12 K's. Goldschmidt solo HR only run of game. Yankee defense Bellinger and Dominguez big plays late in game to hold the lead.
Theeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnn, 1-0. A truly great game. The only producing when it mattered most was by the Yankees. Once offensively on Goldschmidt HR and several on defense and pitching.
Final. Yankees win 1-0. Schlittler went 7 1/3 innings, 0 runs and 12 strike outs for the win. Headrick 2/3 inning with big help from the Yankee defense for the hold. Bednar for the save in the 9th. Only run of game was Goldschmidt's HR.

Defense was super again. Offense, Wells and Dominguez solo home runs and Bellinger a rbi single. Two games two wins takes series and a chance for a sweep tomorrow.
Yankees with a 3-1 win.

The Yankees have the stinking Sunday night game again. Not the garbage espn game anymore, now it's the utter garbage nbc game. Warren will start for Yankees.

Yankees quickly down 2-0 thru two innings.
Warren has nothing tonight, Yanks down 6-0 after four innings, and not hitting.
Yankees shellacked. Trail 11-4 after seven innings. Positive, won series against a NL likley playoff team.
Final. Yankees lose 11-4. Never in it. Warren takes the loss giving up 6 runs in 4 innings. Yarbrough saved the bullpen for the seven games in Chicago starting tomorrow. He pitched the 6th, 7th, and 8th innings, saving all the main arms. Losing Bellinger hurst more than many may think. Jones up for him, but until Jones proves me wrong, he is not the answer.

Fried rough first inning, all on him. Yankees down 3-0.
Fried only goes three innings. On a pitch count. Yankees take him off the hook with 4 runs in the fourth for a 4-3 lead.
4-4 after 6.
Sanchez with the biggest hit of the night. A 3 run HR for a 9-4 lead, and yes I will say it, the win.
From 3-0 down after 3 innings to a 9-4 lead after 8 innings. Sweeeeeeeeeet!
Yankees win a sloppy, long game, filled with poor pitching, sloppy fielding, weird plays, and all-around poor baseball. No matter, the win is all that matters. Ninth inning with a 9-4 lead, Boone brings in the utter garbage Doval and then has to use Bednar to close out the game for the save.
Yankees win 9-5. First game of four with the White Sox. Bats came alive.
Fried didn't pitch well at all tonight, but he did reach his pitch count limit in only three innings forcing the Yankees to use seven relievers.

Cole on the rubber tonight. Yankee bats alive two night's in a row?
Yanks up 3-0 after 2.
Cole has a very long and tough fourth inning loading the bass on three walks, throwing 35 pitches. But, gets the third out with no runs scoring. Still 3-0 Yanks. Could use a few more runs.
Yanks up 3-0 after 5.
Cole leaves after six innings leading 3-0. It is now up to the bullpen again. Another couple of runs would surely help. Cole did what was needed.
Theeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnnn, 3-2.
Cole and Yankees eke out a 3-2 win.
Final. Yankees win 3-2. Cole goes six scoreless innings for the win. Chivilli a scoreless 7th, Headrick a scoreless 8th, both for holds, and Bednar again for the save in the 9th all though he gave up a 2-run HR. First time since May 18th that Bednar gave up a run in a game. Glad it didn't cost anything. Guarantee he doesn't pitch tomorrow. Yanks take first two games of this four game series. Volpe rbi double and Schuemann 2 rbi double both in 3rd inning just enough for the win. Other that inning, Yankee bats crickets.
The Yankees are asking an awful lot from their pitchers right now, both starters and bullpen. Both have come through much more often than not, but this can't go on forever. Trade deadline in just a couple of days. A lot of teams will be trying to come up with the golden goose in the run to the playoffs.
Schlittler starts tonight for Yankees. Bednar will not be available tonight. Lineup produced in one inning last night. Needs to do better. Lets go Yankees!

Schlittler starts. With so many big bats out of action, these are the games you almost have to win, when your top pitchers are starting. Just have to hold the fort until the troops get back.
Lets go Yankees. Hit and pitch when it matters most. Earn the win and the series.
Yankees score four times in top of first, three on a Spencer Jones HR.
Yanks up 4-0 after 2.
Still 4-0 Yanks thru five innings. Schlittler has been sharp. Would still like to score a couple more runs.
Yanks clinging to 4-1 lead after 7. Schlittler got only one out in 7th and was taken out of game with men on 2nd and 3rd with one out. Cruz came in and got the two outs without allowing a run. Cruz when it mattered most.
Yanks up 4-1 after 7.
Bottom of 8th, Blackburn crashes. Gives up solo and 2-run HR. Game tied 4-4. Yanks bats have done nothing since first inning.
Extra innings tied at 4, in a game that should have been a Yankee win already.
Doval in for the 11th. Why is this clown even on the team.
This has been a game or utter failure for the Yankees.
Final. Yankees lose 6-5 in 12 innings. Too frustrated to comment.
One heck of a horrid loss tonight/ So many failures. It is almost like the lineup said, ok we scored four runs, our ace is pitching, ballgame over. -- It is not that easy guys.
Can the Yankees overcome last night's failure and win this afternoon.

0-0 after 7.
Weathers goes seven innings allowing 0 runs. Yankees lineup goes seven innings scoring 0 runs. Good and bad at the same time.
Still no runs for anybody after nine innings. Extra innings again.
No room for error when you only score one run. Results, Yankees lose 2-1 in 11 innings. Weathers pitched his heart out for 7 innings of shutout ball. Deserved better than a no decision. Looks like the Yankees have lost Jazz also. We will see how bad and how long.
Final. Yankees lose 2-1 in 11 innings. Another horrid loss. Little stupid mistakes make a difference between winning and losing. The Yankees are making the mistakes. Cruz takes the loss. Chisholm left game with possible hamstring injury. Split the four game series with White Sox after winning first two and losing two extra innings games.
Yanks stay in Chicago and have three game weekend series with Cubbies. Warren, Fried, and Cole listed Yankee starters.

Coming off of two horrid extra inning losses in a row. Need a win today, but it won't come easy. Chisholm out after leaving game yesterday. Hope it is minor. Not much else to say.
New York City mayor Madmani's policies will destroy the city. He is a disgusting person and his agenda of socialism/communism must be irradicated.
0-0 after 2.
2-0 Yankees after five on Rosario and Jones solo home runs.
Clinging, 2-0 after 8.
Theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnnnnnnn, 2-0.
Final. Yankees win 2-0. Warren goes 6 2/3 for the win, Blackburn 1 1/3 for the hold, and Bednar 1 for the save, all scoreless innings. Rosario and Jones HRs for the only runs in the game.
Yankees win 2-0. This truly a WIN METHOD team. Is their destiny in the future.
The Yankee pitching has been extraordinary. A shutout today from Warren, Blackburn, and Bednar. Home runs from Jones and Rosario for a 2-0 win. Sweeeeeeeeeet.
One thing is for sure, if you don't give up a run you can't lose. The Yankee pitchers can't perform perfectly under this pressure forever.
Comedian Adam Carolla was on a talk show and the group was talking about what are normal people or not. He used this comparison. If you are a democrat you are not normal, because to be a democrat you would have to be mentally unbalance.
Carolla is dead on right. The list of democrat/demonrat policies that will hurt the country and the people is enormous. Americans, you just have to go out and vote for Trump supported candidates/republicans/conservatives. Voting for anyone else is death, evil, corruption, and the overthrow of America.
Rain in Chicago. Game still on.

Game still on. Fried to continue the Yankee starting pitchers goose-egg pitching? A little more from the Yankee bats?
Yanks down 1-0 in first inning as Fried gives up run all by himself. Walk. WP. ground ball advance runner, WP.
Yanks down 1-0 after 3.
1-1 after 5.
After taking 2-1 lead Yankee bullpen crashes in 7th allowing 3 runs. Yanks trail 4-2. It has to happen at some time.
Final. Yankees lose 5-2. Bullpen gives up 4 runs in 7th and 8th innings for the loss.

Cole starts. Yankee bats? A win??
Caballero 2-run HR in third gives Yanks 2-0 after three.
Yanks up 2-1 after 4.
Yankees hang on for a 2-1 win. Cole win, Caballero 2 run HR, Bednar save.
Theeeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnnn, 2-1.
Final. Yankees win 2-1. Another miracle game, or is the Yankee pitching the best in baseball. Caballero two run home run all the Yankee runs. Cole 5 2/3 allows the lone run, and gets the win. Headrick 1 1/3 hold, Bradburn 2/3 hold, and yet again Bednar 1 1/3 save. -- The Yankees need some big bats back, soon.
Just maybe this Yankee teamed is charmed and the season will turn out beyond expectations. If not, then they are cursed.
Great news, the Yankees have rid themselves of the garbage man Camilo Doval. Yankees received two minor leaguers from the Pirates.
More good news, the Yankees have traded for Luis Garcia Jr. the Nationals first baseman/DH. Washington receives right-handed pitchers Jack Cebert, Ben Grable, Yovanny Cruz, and Jake Bird. This is a plus for the Yankees and opens roster space if another deal comes to fruition.
Yankees are back home tonight and will open a three all night game series with the St, Louis Cardinals. Schlittler, Weathers, and Warren the Yankee starting pitchers for the series.

New left handed bat in lineup, Garcia Jr. Let's win his first Yankee game. Score crooked number runs.
Yankees down 3-0 after three. Schlittler has nothing tonight. Worst I've seen him.
Yanks down 3-0 after 2.
Yanks down 6-3 after 5
Final. Yankees lose 13-7. Home runs from start to finish. After being down 6-0 after four innings, Yankees take 7-6 lead in 7th inning, only to five up 7 runs in the 8th inning for the loss. Chivilli takes the loss. Schlittler with a very bad start tonight.
