BLEEDING YANKEE BLUE SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS TO TAKE A BACK SEAT

Since September 2010, Bleeding Yankee Blue has been a steadfast part of the Yankee fan community, delivering heartfelt articles, sharp insights, humor and unwavering passion for our beloved Bronx Bombers. For over a decade, we've shared our journey with you on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and more recently, BlueSky. Today, we are announcing a new chapter for BYB—one that reflects our dedication to our readers and our commitment to continuing this journey in a way that strengthens our connection to you.

After much thought, I have made the decision to stop posting regularly on social media platforms.

Instead, we are refocusing our efforts on our core home. We are asking for you to go directly to our website: bleedingyankeeblue.blogspot.com. We encourage you to bookmark our blog and make it your go-to destination for all things BYB. 

This change allows us to bring you the same heartfelt content without the distractions of ever-changing social media algorithms. I'm tired of all of it to be honest with you. Too much noise, too much anger and it's tedious, let's be honest. No, Bleeding Yankee Blue is not disappearing—far from it! We are simply restructuring how we deliver the content you’ve come to love and expect.

We want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to you, our incredible audience. For 14 years, you’ve supported us, shared our articles, and brought life to the community we’ve built together. Many of you have become more than just readers—you’ve become my personal friends, confidants, and kindred spirits in this shared love for the Yankees. Your comments, likes, shares, and encouragement have meant the world to us. It’s because of you that BYB has thrived, and it’s because of you that we’re excited to continue this journey.

To those who have followed us across the various social media platforms, we can’t thank you enough for your loyalty and engagement. You’ve been the driving force behind every post, every article, and every late-night brainstorm session. While we may not be posting as regularly on those platforms, our love and appreciation for you remain steadfast. We encourage you to keep the conversation going by visiting our blog, sharing your thoughts and posting our stories wherever you'd like. We however will not be.

As we look forward to 2025, we’re filled with excitement and determination. BYB isn’t going anywhere. We also want to take a moment to extend our heartfelt thanks to the incredible team behind BYB. Suzie Pinstripe, Jeana Bellezza-Ochoa, Mike O'Hara, and Alvin Izzo—your stories, support, and unwavering commitment have been the backbone of our success. Each of you has brought unique perspectives and unmatched talent to this platform, and we are endlessly grateful for everything you’ve contributed. Your voices have made BYB what it is today, and we’re excited for what’s ahead with your continued brilliance.

To our readers: thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your loyalty, passion, and engagement have made this journey worthwhile. You are the reason BYB exists, and your support fuels our drive to keep going. This isn’t a farewell—it’s simply a shift, a new way for us to connect and grow together. We love you all, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds.

So, here’s to the next chapter of Bleeding Yankee Blue. Bookmark us, visit often, and let’s make 2025 our best year yet. Together, we’ll keep the spirit of the Yankees alive and well. Thank you for everything, and we’ll see you on the blog!
