The Yanks are at a solid .500, but it's time for them to really get things rolling and head for the top of the AL East. With injuries to A-Rod and Posada we're going to be seeing a lot more of Ensberg and Gonzalez and probably Chad Moeller, who has been re-claimed by the Yanks after being DFA's a few days ago (sorry, Chris Stewart), so get used to seeing a lot of B-Squad games. To be fair, the Yanks B-Squad is actually better than the starting offensive lineup of teams like the Giants and Padres (sorry, Scott Hairston). Here's what we've got going tonight: Lineup: Damon LF Jeter SS Abreu RF Matsui DH Giambi 1B Cabrera CF Cano 2B Molina C Gonzalez 3B Matchup: Pettitte (3-2) vs Bonderman (1-2) See ya in 60! 8:10pm EDT: Could things get any worse for Cano? He just got caught steeling. COME ON NOW SON. 8:40pm EDT: Pettitte is looking PISSED. Gonzalez just mishandled a slow grounder, letting a 5th run come in - and he didn't get Guillen at first, either. 8:41pm EDT: Hey, there ya go Andy! Guillen picked off at first to end the inning. Plenty of time to score 3 or 4 runs, right? 8:55pm EDT: Phil Hughes has been put on the 15-day DL for a "strained oblique muscle." And by "strained oblique muscle" I mean "we need to pull this kid from the lineup for a couple weeks without demoting him to the 'pen." 9:55pm EDT: Did they just give up after the first? It's only April dudes, no phoning it in. PS: Cano is driving me BATTY. Hasta manana! |
