    4/10 - Weathers vs. Stroman

    I think Marcus Stroman is my favorite Yankees pitcher right now. Maybe it's partly because he's got a bit of a scrappy little man vibe going on, but mostly because I think that dude loves to wear the pinstripes and is in the place he wants and needs to be. So you go Marcus. Sweep the leg.

    4/9 - Puk vs. Rodon

    Can great pitching be contagious? Probably not, but I would absolutely love for Rodon to pick up where Nestor left off and keep the pressure on Miami. TIA Carlos.

    4/8 - Luzardo vs. Cortes

    Miami won their first game on Sunday, so thankfully that storyline is done. I'd love to see Nestor looking more like his old self, but I'll settle for more grinding ABs from the lineup that make opposing pitchers feel bad about themselves.

    4/7 - Francis vs. Gil

    Day game following a night game usually means crap offense for the Yankees. On the flip side, the weather is cold, the pitchers are young, and both teams used too much of their bullpens on Saturday, so who knows what the pitching will look like. But we get to see more of Luis Gil, so...

    4/6 - Gausman at Schmidt

    4/13 - 4/16: Twins at Yankees

    Our close friends the Minnesota Twins come visiting for a four game series. With the Rays playing out of their collective minds, now would not be a good time for the Twins to perform beyond their traditional norms in NY. But that could be challenging. The Twins are playing well right now...

    Season Ending Press Conference (Yankees)

    A little surprised they did it so quickly. Best roll-up I've seen is from RAB: http://riveraveblues.com/2014/09/girardis-press-conference-notes-coaching-staff-a-rod-offseason-prospects-leadership-more-109358/#more-109358 As expected, ARod was a topic. Nothing on potential coaching changes...
