Its Yankee Rookie Starter Day in America, the rare day when the Yankees start a pitcher up from the farm - just to see what will happen
The international man of mystery, Vidal Nuno takes the mound today in the doubleheader against Cleveland.He pitched two weeks ago in relief, hurling two shutout innings, although some balls were hit so hard they bounced off the walls to the outfielders, who threw runners out trying to take extra bases. We haven't seen him since. But his cholesterol count looked great in Scranton...
Bobby wasn't the next Mickey, nor Cerone the next Thurman, but let us agree that among continuing Yankee legends, Adam Warren will be the next David Phelps
For two years, at Scranton, they were a pair - (Phelps & Warren, Adam & David, Warren & Phelps, whatever) - you couldn't keep them straight - they laugh alike, they walk alike at times they even talk alike, you could lose your mind. They were the two Yankee prospects nobody ever enshrined in Cooperstown, because all they did was pitch, and they'd knew too well...

Houston Astros 9 — New York Yankees 1
Shocked by nine run, 17-hit outburst, Yankees fall by score of 9-1 to Houston Astros, ending the four-game winning streak.

Tough Start for 2013 Pitching Staff but Too Early To Panic
Hiroki Kuroda just didn't look right after he was hit by that Shane Victorino single. Two hit-by-pitches and a trainer visit later, Kuroda exited the game with a bruised middle finger on his pitching hand. He is listed day-to-day. Adam Warren, who did the bulk of the pitching for the remainder of the game, may be rewarded for it with a trip to the minors. The Yankees have...
Yankees Game 2: Kuroda hit well, offense does not in loss
Boston Red Sox 7 — New York Yankees 4
Kuroda slightly injured in second game of the regular season in a 7-4 loss to the Boston Red Sox.
Hiroki Kuroda got his first start of the season and it was far from what he wanted. Three singles produced one run to give the Red Sox the early lead in the first inning. The second inning would end up going worse for the veteran right-hander...
John's takeaway points from tonight's loss
1. Adam Warren certainly must be happy with tonight's performance. Unfortunately, it might be a reason why he is sent to Scranton: He threw a lot of pitches, and manager Joe Girardi, due to the extra strain on the Yankee pitching staff, might want to send Warren down to get a fresh arm. Still, Adam has to be pleased! 2. Boston's Alfredo Aceves has turned into sort of a stormy...

Ronnier Mustelier walks off in today’s 7-6 win over the Tampa Bay Rays in 10 innings.

The pitching of today’s game featured many players that won’t...
Yankees Spring Training Game 14: Warren hit around in loss
New York Yankees 1 — Miami Marlins 6
The Yankees lost to the Miami Marlins by a score of 6-1.
Adam Warren started today’s game for the Yankees and did not do as bad as his statistics show. In 4 innings, Warren gave up four runs on six hits but three of the four runs came on outs. Reliever Chase Whitley gave up a pair of runs in his inning of work, including a run-scoring...

New York Yankees 5 — Boston Red Sox 2
The Yankees committed two errors but the two errors by the Red Sox were big in today’s 5-2 win.
The first error committed by the Red Sox came in the 6th inning with one on base already. This would be a part of the bases becoming loaded for Eduardo Nunez. The Yankees notably sloppy defensive infielder is...

Spring Training Game 2: Loss in the loss
Toronto Blue Jays 2 — New York Yankees 0
The Yankees lost more than just a 2-0 game to the Toronto Blue Jays.
In Curtis Granderson’s first at-bat of Spring Training, Blue Jays pitcher J.A. Happ threw an inside pitch that hit the power-hitting outfielder. He was removed from the game and sent for a precautionary x-ray. The initial report was a bruised right forearm but the...

In the catching battle, Chris Stewart will get the start after Francisco Cervelli played yesterday...
Who’s Ready for a little Grapefruit?
AL BEast Notebook – Feb 23
Saturday is Spring Training Kickoff for the handful of teams in the AL East. The Yankees play the Braves at Disney World, as David Phelps gets the first look on the mound in some Grapefruit League action. Sunday they host the Blue Jays as Adam Warren gets an early turn. We’ll probably get a peek at a new outfield alignment sometime this weekend with...
an Early Starting-Five Eval: New York Yankees
AL BEast Notebook – Feb 19
Despite the pressure and media microscope, pitching for the Yankees lately has had its advantages as the Bombers have led the league in either home runs or runs scored (or both) in each of the last four seasons. That may not be the case in 2013 as the Yankees will be without Swisher, Martin, Ibanez and A-Rod, so the room for error will be smaller.
Starting...
News and Notes from Tampa: Day Two

For the winner, it is...

THE EVIL EMPIRE
Yankees rookies dress as 'Star Wars' characters
The New York Yankees rookies prepared for the final road trip of the season by dressing up as some of the best-known characters from the "Star Wars" films after Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Oakland A's. This year's hazing of first year players may be a tongue-in-cheek attempt at humor because the team is universally known as "The Evil Empire." Last year...
Yankeetorial: Here's a way for the Steinboys to cut payroll next season: Stop signing former stars in the freefall of their careers
First, for the record: GOD BLESS FREDDY GARCIA. This isn't about The Chief as a person. He's had a great career. He came through last year, and responded in December by writing him a check for $4 million. That's where the problem started. Brain Cashman ascended into his creative tradesman mode, we sent pitchers to hither and Pittsburgh, and then everything went sour....
