Manny Delcarmen: 0.2 IP, 0 H, 0 ER, K (1.42 ERA) At this point he could prove useful in the major league bullpen.
Kevin Whelan: 1 IP, 0 H, 0 ER, 3 K (1.83) Doesn’t get more dominant than that. Three batters, three strikeouts for save number nine. He’s got 31 K in 19.2 IP on the season, and hasn’t walked a guy in his last six appearances. Another who’s ready to contribute.

Zach Nuding: 7 IP, 5 H, 2 ER, BB, 5 K (4.63 ERA) After two bad outings with 5+ earned runs, this was a much needed solid one.
Tom Kahnle: 1 IP, 2 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 3 BB, 3 K (9.64 ERA) Just his third appearance of the season, still shaking off the rust.

Cito “Cheeto” Culver: 2/4, 2 R, RBI, BB, CS (2), E (9) (.220) The errors are concerning, but he’s still young and it’s good to see a two hit game, although it did come against a lefty :-/ He has been a very patient hitter of late, with eight walks in his last 10 games.
Dante “Bichette Happens” Bichette Jr: 2/3, 3 R, 2 RBI, 2 BB (.244) Speaking of patient hitters, Bichette has seven walks in his last seven games and is 12 for his last 38 (.316)
Tyler “The Boss” Austin: 1/4, 2 R, HR (12), 2 RBI, BB, K (.288) Homerun totals continue to rise, average continues to fall.
Gary “The Sanchize” Sanchez: 2/5, 2 R, 2B, HR, 6 RBI, K (.333) Shouldn’t be much longer before a promotion to High-A is in order.
Ben Gamel: 2/4, R, BB (.255)
Kelvin De Leon: 1/4, R, RBI (.286)
Caleb “Gotham City” Cotham: 6 IP, 3 H, 2 ER, 2 K (2.31 ERA) Not a strikeout machine, but he’s really getting the job done at this level.
Pedro Guerra: 1 IP, zeros (1.59 ERA)
John Brebbia: 2 IP, 3 H, 3 ER, BB, Hr (3.86 ERA)

Freddy Garcia earning his money as mop-up man

The Yankees could have just released Freddy Garcia when they removed him from the rotation as he doesn’t necessarily fit a clear role in their bullpen. However, the Yankees are on the hook for $4 million to Garcia so they weren’t just going to release him. Instead they banished him to the back of the bullpen where he hasn’t gotten off to a bad start in his first three appearances...

Jeter sits for first time of the year

Yankees manager Joe Girardi was criticized early on when he used Derek Jeter as a DH in just the second game of the year. It seemed like overkill at the time, but looking back at it and Jeter was off to a hot start and hadn’t missed a single game up until Wednesday night when he took his first full day off all year. “I think I’ve always been concerned with players’ health...

So Far, Not Great for Yankees Kuroda

Watching Hiroki Kuroda instills some confidence in me. Why that is, I don’t know, but just know that it does. I think it has something to do with the consistency he brings. He surely doesn’t have the most electric arm in the league, let alone on the Yankees, but he has located effectively and pitched away from big innings. He is the exact opposite of A.J. Burnett and that is...

Yankees put David Robertson on 15-day DL

David Robertson did not pitch last night because of a sore ribcage. After the game he downplayed the injury, but it is worse than he let on as the Yankees have placed him on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left oblique, according to Marc Carig of the Newark Star-Ledger. Cody Eppley was called up to take D-Rob’s spot on the roster. Robertson strained the oblique on...

Phil Hughes still the victim of the home run

Over his last few starts Phil Hughes has really begun to turn his season around, but one thing that has consistently plagued him even as he improves – home runs. Hughes has now given up at least one home run in each start this season, 10 in total, and is on pace to surrender 50 if he can throw 200 innings this season. On Thursday, Hughes was solid against the Blue Jays. Even...

BBDP May 17th: Austin hits his 13th boner jam, Bryan Mitchell strikes out ten

BBDP MVP: Bryan Mitchell – 7 IP, 6 H, 0 ER, 10 K Triple-A Empire State: W 4-1 vs Toledo. W: Ortiz (1-3) S: Delcarmen (1) Kevin Russo: 1/5, K (.276) Colin Curtis: 3/4, R, 2B, SB (6) (.194) Ronnier “Musketeer” Mustelier: 2/4, R, HR (2), 3 RBI (.304) They really might have something with this guy. I believe he is major league material. Brandon Laird: 0/4, 2 K (.235) Frankie...

Yankees place RHP Robertson on DL

The New York Yankees have placed reliever David Roberston on the 15-day disabled list with a strained muscle in his left ribcage. Tuesday's move puts additional burden on a bullpen already without closer Mariano Rivera. Robertson finished five games this season and was 0-1 with a 2.51 ERA and one save. With Rivera likely out for the season with a torn knee ligament, Robertson...

The Yankee beat: Martin, A-Rod, and a mock draft

The Orioles actually have some pitchers and aren’t going to be the pushovers that we’ve all become accustomed to. Rookie from Taiwan, Wei-Yin Chen, pitched a great game and then Buck Showalter showed off his setup-man and closer combo in Pedro Strop and Jim Johnson. Meanwhile, CC Sabathia just didn’t have his good stuff tonight. Here is the recap and graph. Here is what...

Yankees acquire INF Antonelli off waivers

The Yankees have acquired minor league infielder Matt Antonelli off waivers from the Baltimore Orioles. The 27-year-old appeared in 29 games with Triple-A Norfolk this season, batting .204 (19 for 93) with four doubles, one home run and seven RBIs. The Yankees announced the move Thursday. Antonelli has played games at first base, second base, third base and shortstop this season...

So I Guess I Own 1/7th of a Part of a Russell Martin Dodgers Jersey....

Continuing on with the 2012 Card Draft # 1 funded pickups, I snagged yet another 2009 UD A Piece Of History hit of Russel Martin. This is without a doubt my favorite of the bunch, and it's just remarkably sick.Numbered 02/35, this ridiculously awesome patch comes from the "o" on the front of a road Dodgers uniform, if my sleuthing is not incorrect. Part of me is curious...

Not-So-Rapid Reaction: Blue Jays 4, Yankees 1

The Yankees could have made major headway in the AL East this week. With a pair of games each against the Baltimore Orioles and Toronto Blue Jays, this was their chance to pick up some games on their competition. Instead, they head home in shambles as they prepare to open the interleague portion of their schedule. Last night, Drew Hutchison became the latest first-timer to put the...
