The Red Sox celebrate the 100th anniversary of the first game at Fenway Park with the opener of a three-game series against their long-time rival, the New York Yankees. The Yankees haven’t really had quality starting pitching yet this year, but watch out when...

I’ll be honest. When we sent out the data call for standings predictions, I picked the Yankees to win the AL East. Honestly, it was really hard not to. They already had an incredibly solid club as they entered the offseason, and then they went and added...

The other half of the best rivalry in sports, The New York Yankees. The Bronx Bombers “only” ended up with 89 victories last season. And the key players they inked this past off-season, have them looking incredibly strong on paper for this upcoming 2009...
