    Andy Phillips is pitching? Hooray!

  2. SJ44

    I am always surprised more guys aren’t hurt during BP.

    Its like controlled chaos. Thrown and batted balls going in different directions.

    I hope Stump is ok. That’s scary stuff.

    12.You would only agree to coach your kids little league team only if the league gave you the team name Yankees.
    13.your kids can pick any favorite team in any other sport but baseball.

    15.When the game is rained out,you get in this panic mode not knowing what to do with yourself.

    At the Yankees clubhouse store in the stadium. I was up there 3 weeks ago saw it.

  8. S.o.S.27

    Does anyone know how Arods shoulder is feeling. I know he launched one yesterday. But is it hurting him when he throws?Posada?

  9. jennifer- Hip Hip Jorge

    I read he is throwing at 70% he didn’t want to test it and throw 100%. I’m sure Joe is just protecting his guys from the nuts in the other dugout. There is no Jeter either. I’m not worried about him.

  10. S.o.S.27

    16.When you get pissed off that the preseason game isnt on t.v.

  11. Scorpio

    1, 6, 8, 15 & 16…one shy of being a Yankeeholic.

  12. Scorpio

    OMG, there must have been a fight or something! Duncan, Meacham, Phillips have ben ejected from the game as per MLB.com
