News & Notes

- Nick Swisher is sitting because of "heat-related cramps."

- Here's an update on Andy Pettitte's sim game via Chad Jennings:

Andy Pettitte threw his sim game today in Tampa, but he felt like he was only able to push off 75 percent.

“He probably needs a little more rest, that’s all,” Joe Girardi said.

...

“I definitely think he thinks it’s a setback,” Joe Girardi said. “… He just doesn’t feel like it is completely healed. He just doesn’t feel that it’s at full strength.”

- The Yankees have won four of the five games against the Royals this year.
