News & Notes

(time to step up, big fella)

- Here's an update from Chad Jennings on Brett Gardner and Nick Swisher:

Brett Gardner had an MRI and a cortisone shot today. Nick Swisher will have an MRI tomorrow and is out of the lineup tonight. Heading into their biggest series of the year so far, the Yankees aren’t sure when the cornerstones of their outfield will play again.

- The Yankees are 5-6 vs. the Rays this season.
