The Yankees are back on top! After ending the decade with a bang, do the Bombers have a chance to go on another run of championships? While the answer would appear to be a resounding "Yes!" the team has a number of questions entering 2010. Do Phil Hughes and Joba Chamberlain have what it takes to make it in the starting rotation? Can the defensive improvements continue? Are there any prospects that can help the big league club?
Get the answers to these questions and more in the Maple Street Press Yankees Annual 2010. Edited by Cecilia Tan of WhyILikeBaseball.com, the Annual features articles and analysis on all the important aspects of the 2010 team, but it doesn't stop there. The Yankees minor league system is examined in great detail and, of course, the franchise's rich history is remembered. Written by the most knowledgeable Yankees experts from print and the web, the Annual includes:
- Pitch-by-pitch scouting reports, with information provided by Inside Edge, that detail what to expect from Yankees hitters and pitchers.
- A complete look back at all the moments, walk-offs, and trials of the 2009 World Series championship.
- The answer to the big question (if it wasn't answered in the 2009 playoffs): Is A-Rod clutch?
- An examination of Joe Girardi's winding road to respect, from his players, bosses, and the media.
- The underrated story of the '09 championship, Philip Hughes. How he became the bridge to Rivera and what his future should be.
- A complete update on the Yankees farm system including the top ten prospects (complete with stats), catching phenom Jesus Montero, and the resurrection of the Staten Island Yankees.
- A unique look at Yankees history. From Rickey Henderson and Johnny Mize, to the best seasons for Yankee walk-offs and a ranking of the Yankees teams of the '00s, the Annual gives Yankees history the attention it deserves.
And that's just the beginning. Peruse the table of contents below for all the Annual's offerings. No ads, just everything you need to get ready for the 2010 season.
