  • The Yankee bats came back to life today in their 8-5 win over the nationals. got the start today and through 3.2 innings he gave up 4 hits, 2 runs, 1 walk, and 4 strikeouts. Though the rabble after the game was about his lack of velocity, the young righty impressed himself with his changeup. had a big game going 2 for 3 with a double and two RBIs. (Box Score)
  • about his contusion, calling it a bad bruise and hoping he’ll be back in a few days.
  • Lots of starting pitchers are impressing this spring. Mike Axisa wrote about David Phelps today and The Greedy Pinstripes on D.J. Mitchell (who broke out a new cutter yesterday).
  • The Blue Jays are starting to creep up on the Yankees and Brian Cashman and know it. While the Blue Jays have been very impressive in their improvements, I think the team is at least a year or two away from competing, and Anthopoulos and company are ready to spend to get there.
  • USA Today has a great writeup on the history of the YES Network and an interview with president John Filippelli.
