He said he has made significant improvement in the last 48 hours." . . . He's also reporting that Humberto Sanchez was moved from the 40-man roster and placed on the 60-day DL to make room for Chad Moeller. . . Joba Chamberlain was added to the bereavement list and is expected to miss three days.

Why is Ensberg playing against a righty?
I understand why Cano is sitting, he's been awful, but Giambi has been hitting the ball hard the last few nights.
I dunno, they said something on the pre-game about the team getting into Tampa very early in the morning, so Girardi wanted to give as many of the regulars off as he could.
PLAY BALL!!!
... YEA JOHNNY!
Nice way to start the game.
Yo, what's up Patrick?
Hey man, hows it going?
They really need a win tonight. Gotta get that record over .500 before they're looking up at something like the 11-19 of last year.
Well they certainly got off to a better start than usual Patrick. I think they're 4-1 when they score first.
That's for sure. Great start.
ENSBERG!
I guess that's why he's starting.
shoot, i gotta run, enjoy the game guys.
Hey Greg,
I run Pinstripe Alley and I linked to your site today regarding the new Stadium images on our own Game Thread.
http://www.pinstripealley.com/2008/4/14/398836/game-14-new-york-yankees-t
Nicely done. Keep 'em coming because I always check out the new updates images.
Hey Anaconda,
Pinstripe Alley is a great site, I check it often.
Thanks for the link, I really appreciate it.
What a great job by Moeller right there.
I can't believe this is the first time this team has scored more than 6 runs. Unbelievable.
Better late than never.
Gotta go, in the words of the great Michael Kay, SEE YA!
haha, See ya dude.
Yanks offense looks really good so far (finally) and so does Kennedy.
Yea, they look good tonight, hopefully it's a sign of things to come.
Where'd everybody go?
A-Rod ... 4 for 4 ... maybe the sleeping giant is waking up finally!
Yea Mo, A-Rod looks like he's got his swing back.
I hope Kennedy is OK, that looked painful.
He should be fine, it looked like it hit him on the hip, and he was probably gonna come out of the game anyway.
I'm much more concerned with the Yankees holding this lead.
Bruney fucking sucks.
hey did Kennedy get hurt?
alright. good deal. just read above. damn Yankees. if they lose this game. I am going to pissssssed
He got hit on what appeared to be his hip with a line drive, he should be fine.
CANO! What a big shot for Robbie right there.
Cano is a great pinch hitter ... maybe that hit will get him moving in the right direction. Has to be a great moral booster!
And Mariano seals the deal!!!
YES!
Yea Mo, I'm hoping that he found his stroke there.. Great job by Mo in the 9th, he's been lights-out so far this year.
