    While the fans like the kid position players, in turn lets appreciate the Greens and Cessas in the rotation. Facing Bundy is a good assignment, if Green is equal to the task the Yankees should be OK today. Getting to really like that Torreyes kid at third.

    These are big games for the experience and development of a couple of the young pitchers. Very valuable for the Yanks to get this opportunity to begin finding something out about Green, Cessa and even this Heller kid. From the one inning I saw from him yesterday, he has a good fastball with alot of life and a very decent looking breaking ball. He broke two bats and the hitters were taking defensive swings. Only one inning but he is highly regarded and his limited AAA numbers were also consistent with his rep.
    I think the Yanks just may have a pretty darn good late inning reliever in the mix. We'll find out.

    Anxious to see how Green handles this kinda crucial game vs a good club. Very important games for these young players.

    Here's too another bopper by Sanchise....

    I hope Torreyes, has a one month long hitting streak, keep Headley where he belongs on the bench....

    He's struggling early in the game...gonna be tough- I'll be surprised if he goes into the 6th.
    On and off, up and down- he's still an inconsistent work in progress and as long as Green remains competitive he'll get a few more starts down the stretch in "big" games. Hopefully Yanks will get a more positive read.

    The O's are 10-10, in their last 20 gms; only a .500 ball club in the last 20 games, ....

    12W- 15L in the last month, never been under .500 this year, yet look like a bullet train to hell, (on the fast track)....

    You mean its not registered as a Rifle or Cannon??? I thought he carried a Concealed Weapons Permit....

    Castro, I hope this kid is a part of the Yanx Youth Movement (age 26), w/#18 on the Year, and a total of 10 Ribbies vs the O's this year alone.......
