Bird has flown the coop -- appropriately sent to PA for Father's Day.

ERC called up to start today -- just to give starters an extra day off.

Wells activated. Will his hitting still be a headache for the Yankees?

Escarra sent to SWB.

Goldy rests.

Yankees need Rice to be Rice again.

Yankees went a combined 0-22 with RISP the past 2 games. Can't win games with this predicament.

Can we please now send down Doval for ANYONE? Tanks Gd (spelled both words on purpose this way), Bird is ineligible to be recalled for Doval.

I often have the Yankees in mute as I also flip through the affiliates games. But after again this past week watching the Patriots (AA) go up against Boston's AA team, I gotta ask: How in the world is Boston's SS Franklin Arias NOT in AAA?

As for the Patriots, they finally have moved Trent Sellers to the pen, and his outings out of the pen are encouraging. Today he was downright DOMINATING. Gave up a leadoff triple in the 8th, then struck out the next 6 batters, game over!

OF Garret Martin, finally in AAA, in his 2nd game there, hit a HR (hit 21 in AA). Tyler Hardman is hitting .250 with some pop there, in his 3…

I really feel like the running game hurt the team today. they were getting plenty of people on base vs Burns

then back to back innings Cabby out stealing 2b, Volpe picked off at 1b. the Volpe out turned a 2 run HR into a solo HR

offense has been napping since

I guess the other theory is that the offense has still not recovered from the last start by Weathers

I still don't understand how Stewart was NOT blocking the bag. Oh yea, silly me, it's a Yankees base runner. I remember when the Blue Jay pitcher covering the entire plate with his body because he fell down, and was not called for blocking the plate

do not blame you at all for quitting early today. Yanks bats quit after about the 3rd inning

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
