Will be extremely tough for us to get 2 of 3 with the pitching match-ups

Why in the world would we sign Heath Bell?

Good Phelps showed up

Good Phelps showed up

More like excellent Phelps showed up...

2 H, 0 ER over 6.2 IP against the best offense in the league. Wow!


Shutting out Oakland 7-0 in Oakland is impressive.

Our next 9 games following this series is crucial. 6 against the Jays and 3 against the O's.

The Yankees really don't have any better options in AAA than Nuno?

Phelps looked good the other night. He isn't going to win any CYAs, but I think he can be a decent SP. Same with Whitley.

Nuno really let the A's swing for the fences today. LOL

Thank God this west coast trip is over! Now they can focus on Toronto at home starting with Tanaka on Tuesday.
