Gardner is the man. He realy wants the staring job.
He sure is playing like he does.
Yankees are rocking today.
Not the pitchers. They're getting rocked.
Wow, I spoke too soon.
LOL
I say throw CC or A.J in there for an inning.
They can't do that. CC had his simulated game pushed back today, and I don't know even know how ready Burnett is.
Melancon is pitching now.
Thats good.
