The hits just keep coming. For the second day in a row, Francisco Cervelli
is a late scratch.
UPDATE: Cervelli’s concussion symptoms are back. He’s going for tests.
Jeter SS
Granderson CF
Teixeira 1B
Cano 2B
Montero DH
Chavez 3B
Martin C
Nunez RF
Gardner LF
well at least the one play nunez had to make in RF this year came back in may. RF is pretty small in anaheim so it shouldn’t be too bad
Montero up to the 5 hole.
This against Haren.
WoW !
Get used to it with A-Rod. Can you imagine when he’s 39, 40, 41 and 42?
isn’t a concussion a mandatory like, week-ish out now
might see monty or po getting a start behind the plate soon
Deja vu all over again, or am I hallucinating? Didn’t this just happen that Cervelli was pencilled in only to be pulled at the 11th hour in favor of Martin?
Cervelli is obviously hurting from that collision, yet they can’t bring themselves to play Montero back there?? What do they think, if he goes behind the plate he’ll forget how to hit?
Girardi is nuts. Obviously, Martin needs a rest, or they wouldn’t keep plugging Cervelli in there. But as it stands, Cervelli is apparently in an even more fragile state than Martin, so, their solution, with Montero around is…to go with Martin anyway??
Let’s see how many errors Nunie can make in RF today. Will one (or more) of them cost the Yanks the ballgame?
I’m concerned about Cervelli. Apart from his skills as a ballplayer, he’s a good kid. I really wish him well.
Montero behind Cano has always made sense.
I would have liked to see Dickerson over Nunez in RF.
Wow -
Take a little time off to have dinner and some celebrate a birthday, and it’s like pow, pow, pow.
First, elation – Montero batting FIFTH! Yay!!
Then, surprise – Nunez in right???
Then, sort of relief – Swisher has no structural damage – whew!
Then, dread – ARod missing more time – UGH.
Then, total what the??? – Cervelli out with concussion symptoms — OUCH!!
Then, inquisitiveness – how soon before Montero catches a game? — Hmmmm.
Why are they putting Nunez in the OF today? Why can’t we play one of our 4th OF?
Giving Nunez his first professional start in right field is a bit of a gamble. I might have gone with Golson, but, hopefully it’ll work out.
Now that that is said, I agree with Joe in Long Island. You have to be concerned about Cervelli. He’s suffered several concussions and though he is one tough cookie and doesn’t shy away from contact, you have to pray that he’s going to be okay. He’s a young kid.
Joe, it’s a little disturbing that they even have him pencilled in there if he’s hurting from the collision.
What are they doing, relying on how he feels a few hours before the game? Players are always going to say “I’m fine.” Too serious to hinge on the whims of the player.
Put Nunez where he can do the least damage.
nunez has the range and the arm to handle right just fine, he just needs to remember to hit the cutoff man. cano/tex will handle the rest
We need the offense. I’ll take my chances.
You can’t make any errors on the bench.
Anyway, I’m sure he’ll be fine.
Cervelli won’t be catching much anymore this year. I thought MLB had concussion rules?
I guess they feel like they might as well try Nunez out in right now. None of the others (not Jones, I mean the call-ups) are going to be on the playoff roster. What if Swisher can’t start a game? They need to know if Nunez is a viable option out there.
Even though the Yankees could use a win badly, better to find out now how Nunez can do than find yourself in the midst of the ALDS or ALCS and all of a sudden Swisher is down, and Jones isn’t available whatever. They just need to see it.
Who has better range in the OF, Gardner or Granderson?
I have never seen Nunez play the outfield, so I’ve no idea if he can track flyballs well or gets good jumps. He’s a good athlete with a strong arm, and he has speed to burn. Will this add up to being competent in right? We’ll see. I like the fresh bat, though.
GB-
I would have gone with Dickerson or Golson.
Cervelli didn’t come out of those collisions like a Timex. hasn’t been able to keep on tickin’.
nunez played left a few times in s/t and handled one play in right during noesi’s debut game in that long extra innings baltimore marathon earlier this yr
he’ll be fine.
I think Cervelli has had his bell rung one too many times.
Didn’t he used to wear that spaceman helmet ?
Villa, are birthday wishes in order? If so, happy birthday!
Pruf – Who’s the fresh bat of which you speak? Not Nunie, I assume – his bat has been cold for quite a while.
yea, MTU, but I think that was a result of getting HBP while batting, no?
They need offense. Nunez is a better bet offensively than either Dickerson or Golson, but I think that’s beside the point.
I repeat that I really think this is a “what if Swisher is not available going forward” move.
why not put dickerson in left especially against a righty????
JAP-
Does that matter ?
It’s cumulative isn’t it ?
Cervelli had two hard hits at the plate in the same game. Were they both in the same inning or one inning apart?
Anyway, a more unusual series of events. One of those hits would have been tough to take.
Leave it to the Showalters to extract their pound of flesh from the Yankees in one way or another.
Niblick, Nunez has a quick bat and can sting the ball. He’s gotten under a lot of pitches lately and has been way too jumpy. But he’s got a fast bat with LD ability, and if he gets on, he runs very well. We need offense. The team is gassed.
To boot, I’d have caught Jesus and put Po in at DH, but I don’t make these decisions.
J Alfred -
Not for me. A family member. Thanks.
Some kid named Weiland is starting for the Sox tonight. Haven’t heard any advance hype on him.
thank you thank you guiseppe girardi for having the faith in montero to not only play him but move him up in the order!
Why is Cervelli in the lineup to begin with???
Is there something wrong with Martin?
No surprise with Cervelli, I’m sure the cross country flight didn’t do him any favors.
MTU, yes it is, but I linked the helmet with getting HBP.
///
I just don’t get why Montero isn’t catching, if Martin needed a day. WTF are they afraid of??
Nick in SF September 10th, 2011 at 6:21 pm
Put Nunez where he can do the least damage.
——
The bench. Seen what he does with an infield pop-up. Not sure I want to hold my breath when balls go to RF.
We don’t know how long Swisher’s elbow will keep him out, nor do we know if it will come back again in the post. The Yankees may need to decide whether they want Montero or Posada at DH in the post. Because if they are leaning toward Montero, it might be good to get him some games at 1B, since Swisher is the BU 1b. I know Chavez has played some too, but with A-rod’s injuries & Chavez’ frailty and inability to play every day, it’s best to leave Chavez at 3B to share with A-rod.
Also, it may be time to have Montero catch tomorrow. Martin can’t play catcher everyday. Montero with C & 1B ML experience will help them in the post.
m-
He throws harder than Ryan, and has a curve like Koufax.
At least according to Gammons, etc.
So what if his ERA is over 6.5 ?
Crawdaddy -
Oy, forgot about that.
I think probably half the team is banged up right now. But no way Girardi will spill his guts on the particulars.
Did Montero ever play 1B?

More significantly, Hellboy goes for Tampa
JAP-
Maybe Girardi is concerned that the Halos will run all over Jesus.
Who knows ?
Playin’ it conservative would be my guess.
Am I missing something here?
Why is the backup catcher getting scratched for the starting catcher 2 nights in a row?
Villa, oh well, same DNA
.
///
Montero at first, now that might be a risk!
LGY, that’s my question.
WHY CAN’T JESUS JUST CATCH???
LGY -
They probably just want Martin to have some off days. I wouldn’t jump to too many conclusions, but it’s probably a safe bet that most of these guys are either banged up or sick.
J. Alfred -
Well, better not be. It’s the spouse.

Villa,
Don’t you find it odd that they are blase enough about Cervelli to have him replace Martin, yet concerned enough about Cervelli to pull him for Martin, yet are concerned enough about Martin being gassed that they’re willing to be blase about Cervelli, but then concerned enough to second-guess themselves and replace Cervelli with Martin, yet refuse to look in Montero’s direction, despite Cervelli potential condition and Martin somewhat compromised??
Put the f****ing kid behind the plate, the world isn’t going to end!
Tigers about to leap over the Yankees.
8th straight win just now — another walk-off.
Ghost, I’ve had the patience of a saint!
It’s simply logical that Montero should catch tonight, given the health of the backup and fatigue (I take it) of the starter.
He’s a catcher.
I gotta say I love that Joe keeps writing Montero’s name into the lineup.
I was really only expecting him to get one start this weekend.
My saber speed beat you to it with that tweet GB.
Villa – Ahh.
////
Montero has a better arm than Cervy.
Anyway, he can outhit their running
.
Time to change venues.
Go C! Go Nuney! Go Jesus! Go Yanks!
Montero should not catch this season unless it’s an emergeny. Any Yankee fan should be thrilled with him at DH instead of Posada and how he has been brought along.
sp-emergency

==============
No doubt that you have a very good point. However, I’m okay with the status quo for now. If Cervelli can’t play anymore this year, then the Yanks are going to be forced to make a decision about the backup catcher slot. If they feel more comfortable with the faux Molina, then I’m fine with it. Let Jesus focus on his hitting for now.
And of course, we can always use Posada in a pinch.
Well, there ya go!
If Jones becomes unavailable and Swisher is unavailable, they sure better find out now if Nunez can play right field, because game 2 of the ALDS is too late.
****
J Alfred -
It’s gonna have to happen. I’m thinking in Seattle. Angels are a tough team and they will run. On the one hand it would be as good a test as any. On the other hand, well, I don’t know that you want that kind of a test right off the bat.
As for Cervelli/Martin – I have no idea. I still think that there’s a lot of sick soldiers in that clubhouse and they’re going with the healthiest. I don’t know how this concussion stuff works. I don’t know how they test. I don’t know when Girardi makes out his lineup.
Maybe he should just keep the lineup to himself until the last minute when there are this many questions.
However, if Cervelli was scratched yesterday because of concussion symptoms, or possible concussion symptoms, I do agree it doesn’t seem to make any sense to pencil him in tonight. For once, I can find no “out” for Joe Girardi….
“I’m concerned about Cervelli. Apart from his skills as a ballplayer, he’s a good kid. I really wish him well.”
joe form long island-
at the time he was hit , i said he should be taken out of the game. you could tell he had his bell rung.
he’s not going to do it because he is a tough kid. the way i understand it once there is damage done , continuing playing opens up the possibility of all kinds of bad things.
the good news is that the yankees recognize the dangers of PCS and are erring on the side of caution.
i don’t want to see montero get a start because cervelli is injured and especially not because something as serious as a concussion, but this kind of thing is precisely why i said montero should be worked into the catching rotation.
montero is the third catcher right now. he needs to catch. it’s that simple. get him prepared if they need him. this is even if cervelli is fine in a few days.
I predict that the Yankee bats come back to life tonight!
I wouldn’t use Montero catching. Not at this juncture with the Yankees having lost their last three (?) games and his having unfamiliarity with the Yankee pitching. That would be a recipe for disaster IMO. Let him slug away and continue to feel his offensive sea legs. He’s there if needed. This isn’t a day game after a night game, so Martin should be fine to catch.
JMO, JMO, JMHO
“Put the f****ing kid behind the plate, the world isn’t going to end!”
if cerveli is out for an extended time, montero is the next guy in line right?
there’s really no decision to be made. he catches. plain and simple.
Trisha -
Did you just get back from Saturday evening Mass??? LOL
Its in Girardi’s and the Yankees’ best interest to start giving Montero a try at catcher because both Martin and Cervelli seem to be banged up. Those symptoms Cervi is experiencing are nothing to take lightly, especially with the many hits he got in that game and never coming out.
I’m back,
Jap,
Montero batting fifth!!!, protecting Cano we are having a little glance at the future! yeah!.
Ghost,
Even though i don’t mind the status quo….i would love to see Montero catch, and i think this issue with cervi has created the oportunity. About Po i hope you are joking because i don’t think he can catch anymore.
Onthe Nunez front, it’s a good time to see how well he performes in the outfield.
“Angels are a tough team and they will run.”
That.
“On the one hand it would be as good a test as any. On the other hand, well, I don’t know that you want that kind of a test right off the bat.”
That too.
And finally, the Yankees are sitting with a 7 game lead – not that I think anyone is going to catch them. But you want to start to amass some wins. I don’t believe experimenting is a smart thing to do, especially when it’s unnecessary experimenting. I believe he will get in some games – Girardi has said he would not hesitate to put him in games, just that he didn’t anticipate starting him.
Let him help where it’s most needed right now – with his bat. There will be plenty of time for Jesus Montero to catch for the Yankees. If you’re faced with an emergency situation, that’s one thing. But to do it just for the sake of doing it or because Yankee fans are anxious to see him catch, well that makes little to no sense IMO.
Should have read “Yankees are NOT sitting with a 7 game lead”
I’m leaving for Saturday night mass right now; to worship Jesus at Angel Stadium. Section 111, come say hello to the most beloved person on this blog!
LETS GO YANKEES!
Villa, this week I’m going tomorrow morning. That would have been one heck of a long mass if I did! I don’t think the Yankees need that many prayers.

You lucky dog!!!
Trisha,
Good post, but i would really see the kid given the chance to catch!!
Dog being the operative word.

I just caught the JMO, JMO, JMHO and was reminded of the mea culpa.
EDIT:

2011 Tigers = 2009 Yankees
Randy- I’m out at a clambake, and can’t respond in detail- but I couldn’t agree with you more.
When I saw the okay when Markakis hit him with his shoulder, my teeth hurt.
montero will be almost for sure have to catch in the next fews days because if cervelli is showing concussion symptoms those symptoms are not going to just go away.
i’m not worried in the least with him catching anyone on the yankees. yes it might be better if he caught nova or garcia or hughes , but he’s a professional catcher. he can catch if he has to.
the question is not if montero can handle any particular pitcher. it’s more, can the pitcher handle having a new catcher that he’s not used to? cc isn’t going to let having a new catcher bother him. neither will garcia and colon. hughes and nova have pitched to montero.
burnett is a bit of a headcase sometimes, but i think even he isn’t going to care if montero catches him. burnett for all his faults is a professional who isn’t going to show up the kid.
some pitchers are finicky and don’t like anything out of the ordinary. i think the yankee starters are all way too battle tested to worry about montero being new.
luis, I believe it is going to happen, and depending on what’s going on with Cervelli you mght see it sooner rather than later. I’d be curious to know whether Girardi would go with Posada before Monetro to start a game anyway.
I’d feel much more easy about Montero starting against Seattle than I would against the Angels, if he has to start. Angels are loaded for bear and 2.5 games out of first place in theri division. The kid does NOT need a baptism by fire and the Yankees don’t need to do it to prove anything to overly-anxious fans. (Fan frenzy about highly-touted prospects always makes me a little queasy; this forum frenzied ad nauseum about Mark Melancon, almost inconsolably so, and then couldn’t wait to throw him on the trash heap when things didn’t work out.)
Cooler heads will prevail.
Why is Nunez playing RF? We have Dickerson and Golson both up, and Laird can play the corners. This seems unnecessary. Also, in this day and age, and after a hit like that, how did they not send Cervelli for mandatory tests? That’s absurd.
joe from long island-
clambake?
thanks for making me hungry.
the yankees have gotten much better at injury prevention and i think they are paying serious attention as they should to the symptoms cervelli must be having. hopefully, they nip this concussion thing in the bud with cervelli. it’s more than just a baseball thing. it’s a quality of life thing.
“I just caught the JMO, JMO, JMHO and was reminded of the mea culpa.
”
Great pick up! And what’s even funnier is that I often do go to mass Saturday afternoons!
Poor Sux rook is at the beginning of what is looking like a Suxian horror show. I always feel back for the rooks on that team because they’re still tadpoles so I don’t think of them as bona fide Suxers.
What the heck is goin’ on here ?
1st thing this morning Maine Yankee is tormenting me with all his talk of Lobster, and now Joe is out at a clambake.
Is there no justice ?
Why wasn’t I invited ?
I love seafood. It’s just not a big item out here in the Desert if you know what I mean.
Montero will catch before Posada. Romine, too for that matter.
1 strike 11 balls bases loaded in Tampa
Oh my. This has ugly written all over it. This kid is going to get tatooed.
“Montero will catch before Posada. Romine, too for that matter.
”
I wonder.
“I’d feel much more easy about Montero starting against Seattle than I would against the Angels, if he has to start.”
trisha-
i thought you never worry.
what’s there to worry about?montero can catch against any team.
montero is a catcher. he’s been catcher in the yankee system for the past five years. the pitcher will throw the ball. montero will catch it and then throw it back to the pitcher.
real simple. no big deal.
I believe that Montero will catch before Posada if Girardi is just giving some guys time off to catch their breaths and it’s in the middle of some uneventful game, but I wonder if Posada would get the start, say, in an Angles game.
Trisha,
Agreed, i don’t think is a good idea to throw him against the Angels….But i don’t think putting Posada behind the plate is a wise idea either, he hasn’t catch all season, and i don’t think he will be up to the task given his age and concussions issues. If it is an emergency ok, but nothing more.
On the blog frenzie about Montero, i think most of the posters here know that probably he is going to struggle a little bit at first, but you are right….there are some guys that might start a whining parade.
Weiland being thrown to the wolves…. er, I mean Rays.
I don’t worry.

If you really want to see Jesus challenged let him catch the tatooed one.
Weiland really helped out by the umpire that inning.
Just superb, superb pitching by a young Red Sucks prospect once again.
Got out of a bases-loaded no-out jam giving up only one (!) run.
Amazing. Simply.

i will catch for the yankees before posada catches for the yankees.
posada totally flunked a PCS test last fall. i think the yankees are genuinely concerned about posada taking any more hits to the head catching. as much as i love posada as a player, the PCS thing is too serious to fool around with.

randy apparently your baseball smarts aren’t taking the day since you would have had Montero up here much sooner – or have I misremembered your ardor?
***********
I would put Posada in before I would put a rookie in, in a game against a surging team. If Montero goes in then it would have been the right move since Girardi skates circles around all the managers on this forum, even those who won’t admit it.
“posada totally flunked a PCS test last fall. i think the yankees are genuinely concerned about posada taking any more hits to the head catching. as much as i love posada as a player, the PCS thing is too serious to fool around with.”
Ah.
Both sides have legitimate gripes against the ump in TB.
“I don’t worry.”
trisha-
good, then you aren’t worried about jesus catching against the angels.
me neither.
“Rough ‘em up more.”
Some questionable calls by the umpire (according to Remy, who is really fair about those things).
Perhaps I showed a little too much compassion for the rook. He got out of the inning pretty unscathed!
Luis-
Talk about having to learn fast.
GB-
No need. They already resemble the stuff they use to grind down diamonds (the non-baseball variety).
I believe I had predicted Weiland would outpitch Hellickson.
The Mercury Strikes Back September 10th, 2011 at 7:37 pm
With all due respect, this is a yankee blog….. besides the game is far from over.
“randy apparently your baseball smarts aren’t taking the day since you would have had Montero up here much sooner – or have I misremembered your ardor?”
could you rephrase that question please? i’m not sure exactly what you mean.
“I believe I had predicted Weiland would outpitch Hellickson.”
Yes ER. I do believe it is only the second inning? Maybe it’s better to wait before you put your foot in it.
MTU,
He already debuted against the sux, and had an at bat with the bases juiced in fenway, so you are right they haven’t pampered the kid!!,lol
That meant that I believe you are one of the posters who felt that Montero should have been up here much sooner.
Got a conflict here.
OTOH I want the Sux to lose.
OTOH I don’t want Hellickson pitching too well since he is in direct competition with SuperNova for ROY.
My solution.
Rays win a high scoring game and Hellickson does not get the win.
Yeah baby ! That’s the ticket.
mel, couldn’t they let Posada catch using that goofy catcher’s helmet that Cervelli used to wear?
trisha-
yeah, i wanted montero up 6 weeks ago to two months ago.
everyone who reads the blog knows that.
what does that have to do with your comment, “your baseball smarts aren’t taking the day” ?

Just because randy acted like that in school doesn’t mean it’s the norm here.
Why do you think he doesn’t live in Maine anymore.
We kick his kind out to Mass.
Luis-
If Jesus would just stop wearing that silly mask we’d all know who he really was.
Albert Pujols in disguise.
MTU, absolutely the way to go. When one of the pitchers from my fantasy team would be facing the Yankees, I would hope for a low-scoring game with a tie when my pitcher departed, then the Yankees winning the game. That way I would still amass a lot of points, and the Yanks would win!
Win-win.
Trisha-
Sometimes out-of-box solutions are required, so to speak.
Luis-
After all, Jesus isn’t robbin’ a bank. He’s just stealin’ a few extra bases every now and then.
Absolutely. Out-of-the-box thinking taught us that the world is round, n’est-ce pas?
There’s nothing like a marriage of critical yet rational thinking!
By the way,
The future 2012 ROY already has men on 2nd and 3rd with one out
Now if somebody could only come up with an effective fix for fall allergies, tbe world would be a better place.
MTU,
to be honest, i never expected this kind of production from The Jesus, don’t get me wrong i have always thought that he is going to be a star, but not this fast!!!,
45 pitches after 2 innings.
You could say Weiland is pitching a “Phil Hughes.”
No? Too much?
Trisha-
It still seems pretty flat out here sometimes. Are you sure it’s round ?
P.S. I hope you are eating plenty of good spicy food, and that you fared well with all the extra water.

Just stuff a couple of cotton balls in the nostrils and you’re good to go.

He’s Venezuelan isn’t he ? What other proof did you need ?

Yes and yes. The extra water bought me a week’s worth of company but it was kind of a nice change.

LOL!!!!, actually from knowing the team that he played for down here , i know that he is going to be a star in the big leagues….unlike the rest of the caribean, where they play in empty stadiums, here they have to play in packed ones!!, and i mean 25-30 thousand very loud and unforgiving fans!!, so i knew from the start that he was going to handle the presure much better than other rooks
I’m still at least a little annoyed that daddy milkshakes got off so easy with the union loonie by his side pulling the strings.

Mating wouldn’t be the problem.
Your cousins with their guns would be though.
Well let me say this. If the Suxers lose tonight and the Yanks win, I think it will make Girardi’s decision about catchers a little bit easier. He might not hesitate to use Martin tomorrow since Cervelli caught very recently.
Whatever, it’s all good.
Love watching Ellsbury look like a keystone cop.
