- The Yankees also received good new from Mariano Rivera after his bullpen session yesterday.
- Ben K. over at River Ave. Blues has a nice breakdown of the Yankees defense using John Dewan's plus/minus system, and unlike last year it turns out that they won't be half bad this year.
- Also from RAB is the great news that we won't have to see anymore of those stupid Giuseppe Franco commercials on YES.
- Steve Lombardi of WasWatching.com thinks there's a good chance the Yankees will get off to a bad start, and even goes as far as predicting the Yankees will be in last place on May 7th, well sort of. Check it out.
- Mike Piazza has nothing but nice things to say about Yankees minor-league catcher Francisco Cervelli.
- Instead of the usual fielding drills the Yankees pitchers played a hybrid game of golf and baseball during yesterday's workout (pictured below), something Girardi called the WBC Ryder Cup. It was A.J. Burnett's idea:
“It really helps the bonding, it helps the guys get together, and it’s not the same day-in, day-out stuff,” said Burnett, one of the Yankees’ new highly paid recruits. After Burnett made the suggestion, Girardi gave it some thought, walked back to him and said, “Hey, we’re going to do your golf game.”

And Steve Lombardi is a giant tool. No surprise there.
I dunno about that, I like his blog. He is a bit of a pessimist, though.
How much do they actual run? Everytime I see pictures from spring training they are always just stretching.
I'm not sure.
