With the season nearly two-thirds completed, teams are now focusing their attention on the future. Here are some of the specific factors/questions that need to be considered.
Once Derek Jeter retires -- his suddenly balky body is hastening the process -- and assuming Mariano Rivera makes good on his curtain call, Harvey will have Broadway to himself.
The lack of power on this team is staggering. A three-game series at Fenway Park without a single home run? That hasn't happened to the Bombers since 1995.
Brett Gardner and Lyle Overbay each had three hits and drove in a run to back Hiroki Kuroda's seven strong innings.
It was a New York baseball fan's midsummer night's dream. Two pitchers whose presence on the mound can intimidate even the game's great sluggers.
Donnie Baseball deserves another look from Hall of Fame voters. Between 1984-1987, Mattingly averaged 29 home runs and 120 RBIs per season. His on-base plus slugging during that stretch was .918, .939, .967 and .937.
Neither Daniel Webster nor William Shakespeare conjured a word that frames his ability or his nobility. If possible, he's an even better person.
Rivera is not just a great baseball player, he is the best at his position by a significant margin. Sure, he has peers -- just not in MLB.
The game belongs to the players, coaches, managers and owners. If they want it clean, they have the power to make it so, even if it becomes extremely uncomfortable for the guilty few. They need only to come together and get it done.
Quiet, reserved and understated during nearly a quarter-century in a sport that took him from Panama to the pantheon of pinstriped pitchers, Rivera was honored with that rarest of baseball tributes — a solo bow.
Jose Bautista, J.J. Hardy and Jason Kipnis drove in runs to back a night of pulsating pitching.
As Rivera finished warming up in bullpen, "Enter Sandman" began to play over the PA system at Citi Field.
When legendary closer Mariano Rivera enters the game -- whenever that will be -- he will be accompanied by Metallica's "Enter Sandman," baseball sources told FOX Sports.
When visiting his long-time opponents during road trips, Rivera has been meeting with players, coaches and the individuals behind the scenes to say his goodbyes. Check out our top Mo-ments...
Even though Tuesday night's All-Star game is for the young, there's still a place at Citi Field for the guys sporting a bit of gray.
Although fresh faces are taking over, that doesn't mean all the old guys are out. Rivera, Hunter and Beltran are back at the All-Star Game, bringing decades of experience and wisdom.
The first and last pitch of the All-Star Game could well be "New York, New York."
The entire apparatus is so swathed in entitlement that you, the fan, the customer, client, and de facto employer have become lost in the tornadic narcissism. You're just too dumb. You didn't play the game.
Jeter is getting old. If you don't believe me and won't listen to reason, just listen to his body, which is quitting on him. If his quad survives, then something else will break, snap or pull. It is the prerogative of Father Time, who is undefeated.
There was cake, candy and presents for each of the kids at the party. The kids got a tour of the Yankees dugout and the field.
