I'd give Austin a shot - Walker will probably be alternating at 2nd with Torreyes with Wade at 3rd until Drury is ready to play. The excitement begins, the injuries have startedby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
heard it's the same foot that he had surgery on - could Greg be an chronic DL habitant. this is not a good start to the seasonby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
it was fine watching Tanaka pitch 6.2 & Kahnle then Shreve, Betances, etc implodedby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
a contusion - they will wait a few days to see whether it becomes a DL stint - if not Torreyes will probably start at 3rd for a couple. Other moves Wade LeBlanc has been cut. Sadly no more ST televised on YESby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
We've had the chance to see several ST games on YES plus MLB & SPN. The starters have been expanding pitch counts, velocity & tinker with location. All have shown signs of being game ready as they are up to 80 - 100 pitches. DRob, Kahnle, Chad, Chap have been readying for the season out of the pen. On the down side - Shreve faltered big time this afternoon and has not been particularly shby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
With ST winding down and less than a week till OD 2018 - the last thing we need is injuries to key players. Fingers crossed a Brandon Drury just got hbp in the elbow and Gino took him out of the game. Awaiting prelim report.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com

A little taste of rivalry on tap tomorrow afternoon at 1 - YES will be broadcasting from Tampa. Nice to see Jordy stretched out to 6 innings of quality pitching this afternoon against the Twinkies. In one week the first game of 2018 excitement will be in the books. Anyone else getting anxious for some funby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com

NFL has games in London during the regular season; in 2004 the Yankees/Rays played in Japan (ask me how I remember the year, it was the same time I was dealing with my daughter's funeral) - well negotiations are nearing completion for the Yankees & Sux to play two MLB games in London with Sux as the home team.

Following the win over the Marlins this afternoon, the Yankees made two more roster moves getting to 25 man. Estevan Florial was moved to the minor league camp and Miguel Andjuar was optioned to S/WB, a good move to keep him in the lineup every day as he continues to work on his "D".by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com

Whether his velocity is off or location, Dellin Betances woes continue to be a problem. He has been missing & walking batters; still not able to hold runners on; maybe because of his height struggles fielding his position. Giving up the long ball is now becoming an added problem - for a RP that amounts to trouble and blown saves even losses for the team. He needs to get his act together sooby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
moves are being made as we inch closer to opening day - Adam Lind has been released from his minor league contract. Opening the door for Tyler Austin to back up Greg Bird at 1st.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Cash never said two rookies would but they could start - Andjuar needs work on his fielding and watching Gley, he still needs to work himself back into the game. It takes time and he should be back soon - Wade will be the second baseman until Gley is ready then Tyler will become that all around bench player we have been missing. Walker if he can get his timing will be a nice option - This gives uby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
along with Kyle Higoshima - expect Andjuar, Shane Robinson, Bill McKinney to be soonby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
With a little over 2 weeks left in ST things in Tampa should be shaping up and falling into place. Problem is there a still a ton of minor league players on the bench and getting into games. Today was a prime example. Boone's 5th inning interview said we would be seeing players going 2, 3 games in a row & beginning to play the 9 innings as pitchers continue to stretch out, starters to 100 pitby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
from the sounds of Boone's 5th inning interview - 2nd base is Ty's to lose even with Neil Walker - Walker has 2 weeks to get ready & make a spot on the team heading northby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Tyler Wade returns to the lineup tonight against the Twinkies. We also get to see Tanaka on the mound. C'mon 6:30by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
I'm not surprised - Kenny has been looking older lately. '97 is 21 years and that was after a nice baseball career. He is not a youngster and maybe he wants more relaxation. He has been spending more time in his FL home and less in Maryland. He is such a cool guy & gentlemen to meet in person, had that pleasure. It will be sad though. He was so good with Jim Kaat in days before YES. Let's enjby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
I agree and I just hope Rothchild isn't going to screw around - he is the pitching coach, in charge of pitching. Part of the reason he was retained was his experience; is he petty enough to take his 'anger' about Joe's firing or his own not being hired as manager out by not being responsible for the staff. I'm not a Rothchild fan never have been - so when there's screw ups with the pitching, I puby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Aaron might take the hit but there is enough brain freeze to go around - first the order of pitchers are known prior to game; Larry Rothchild is the pitching coach & should have enough experience to know when to send word to the bull pen - and then we have the bull pen coach who has experience and shouldn't have to be told to get Warren warming up.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com

of course - been waiting for both of them to come up and crack the lineup together. Gley did his thing sliding headfirst to the plate last year 0 hopefully he can get back in the swing. Looks like he might be tentative & maybe protecting that shoulder. Clint was just a ball of fire and looked so calm sitting there after the fence collision stating he just bumped his head on it - seems more liby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
just more proof that you can't tell - I thought it might be a fractured wrist or torn ligaments. Watching Clint hitting the fence, I really thought he would be set to go in a week - concussions can really scramble the brain.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
