The Yankees have been in contact with the Blue Jays to talk about ace starter Roy Halladay , according to Jon Heyman . As you know, I believe the Yankees should definitely go after Halladay. He is available to AL East teams this time around, his proven ability exceeds the cost of prospects and pairing him up with CC Sabathia translates to a 28th world championship. Heyman mentions that the Red Sox...

If you ask me I'd say no; the voters pay too much attention to payroll so I think that will hurt him tremendously. Anthony DiComo of Yankees.com took a look at his chances yesterday, here's some of what he had to say: His job [with the Marlins], guiding a team of young players to a fourth-place finish, was quite different from his job this season, when he was charged with meshing three high-profile...

To the surprise of (hopefully) no one, Zack Greinke has won the AL Cy Young. The only thing mildly surprising is his margin of victory, as Seattle's Felix Hernandez was a pretty distant second. Greinke received 25 of 28 first place votes. Hernandez had 2, and AL strikeout leader Justin Verlander and third-place finisher had the other. C.C. Sabathia and Roy Halladay were the only other pitchers mentioned...

Congratulations to Zack Greinke, the winner of the 2009 A.L. Cy Young Award. He is clearly deserving of the award, but the biggest story here isn't that he won -- although with an unimpressive win total, there was a little bit of a question about that -- but that he blew away the field, picking up 25 of the 28 first place votes, and finishing second on the other three ballots. King Felix finished second...

PHILADELPHIA – Chase Utley ripped a no-doubt-about-it shot to right, put his head down and ran around the bases so quickly he nearly passed Jimmy Rollins and Shane Victorino. Even in the World Series, Utley doesn't pause to admire his homers. He's had plenty of opportunities, too, connecting five times to tie Reggie Jackson's record set in 1977 with the Yankees. "Obviously it's great company," Utley...

PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) –The New York Yankees will lean heavily on CC Sabathia in their chase for a 27th World Series title as manager Joe Girardi said Saturday the big left-hander would start Sunday's Game Four against Philadelphia. Starting Sabathia on three days' rest instead of the accustomed four means the Yankees ace would also be available to start a deciding Game Seven should the series go the...
