Tex and Posada in the lineup

So far the Yankees have a five-man bench listed, meaning they aren’t announcing a move for Posada just yet.

Yankees lineup stays hot against Cleveland

 Email This Post

Alex Rodriguez had six RBI, Robinson Cano hit his 11th home run and Brett Gardner had three hits in an 11-2 win against the Indians. Rodriguez, Cano and Gardner were three of six Yankees with multiple hits, and the big day from the offense made an easy winner out of Andy Pettitte who was outstanding yet again. He pitched seven innings, walked none and allowed just four hits.

Lineup plus injury news

COMMENTS: None Yet

Some less-than-encouraging injury news out of the Bronx on Wednesday:

Swish Dog says his injured left biceps is a “one-more-day kind of thing” and he feels good but “there’s still something there.” He tried to take batting practice during Tuesday’s game in an effort to pinch hit, but felt he couldn’t go.Georgie went for an MRI on his foot Wednesday. No word on the results, but the (semi) good news is that Girardi said he would go to Posada before he went to Ramiro Pena if — God forbid — Cervelli got hurt.Nick The Stick is at The Stadium in an arm sling…The Yanks made a roster move, as they sent outfielder Greg Golson down and recalled pitcher Mark Melancon. Girardi says it was because, “We felt we needed the pitching more.” I guess having 13 pitchers outweighs having a baron bench and a bush-league outfield. Although Sergio Mitre won’t be available until Thursday, so it kind of makes sense.Remember that protest from Tuesday’s game? I’ve got a funny feeling it’s not going to go through.

As for Wednesday’s lineup against the Rays:

On the bump is AJ, who will be opposed by Wade Davis. LET’S GO YANKS!!!!Share this post:RSS FeedTweet ThisShare on FaceBookDigg ItStumble Upon ThisReddit ShareYahoo! Share

Golson in the house, not in the lineup

 Email This Post

Greg Golson, not Juan Miranda, is listed on the lineup card as a player on the bench. So far it looks like that’s the move for Alfredo Aceves.

Brett Gardner CF
Mark Teixeira 1B
Alex Rodriguez DH
Robinson Cano 2B
Jorge Posada C
Nick Swisher RF
Randy Winn LF
Ramiro Pena 3B

RHP Javier Vazquez

UPDATE, 11:13 a.m.: Golson has arrived. We’re still waiting to talk to Girardi about the move. I haven’t seen any other new players and the only player who seems to be missing is Aceves.
