The Yankees won big yesterday, 7-1, without Nick Johnson due to a “stiff back”. This worries me because Johnson missed a little time in spring training with a back injury. Joe Girardi says he’ll be out until Tuesday (Monday’s an off day).
Other notes:
- Andy Pettitte pitched eight innings of one-run ball in yesterday’s win. He’s 3-0 with a 1.29 ERA on the year, both tops in the AL.
- Pinstripe Alley thinks Jesus Montero should be traded. I think he’s out of his mind.
- The Yankees will host the Pinstripe Bowl for four years. I’d be curious to see how a football game is played at the new stadium.
