as per yankees.lhblogs.com:

Derek Jeter SS
Curtis Granderson CF
Mark Teixeira 1B
Robinson Cano 2B
Nick Swisher RF
Jorge Posada DH
Brett Gardner LF
Francisco Cervelli C
Ramiro Pena 3B

LHP CC Sabathia

Alex Rodriguez is out of the lineup but available to pinch hit. He plans to take ground balls and basically go through every other baseball drill known to man. Assuming he comes out of it just fine, Rodriguez will not only play tomorrow, he’ll start at third base.

GO YANKEES!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder why Joe is batting Swisher & Posada (two switch hitters) back to back/ I know Granderson is 5 for 12 lifetime against Halliday, but still.....Let Swisher hit no.2 and let Posada hit 5 and Granderson 6.

I thought we wouldn't see this Halladay guy anymore...

You would still have two switch hitters batting back to back (Swisher and Teixeira)

Thanks for the update, Cool Papa!

Going to the game tonight so I'm stoked!

[DevsJetsYanks88]

I thought I had heard that A-Rod was going to be in the lineup tonight? Not that it bothers me, I've got no problem with them taking every proper precaution.

That's true. It's nice to have some switch hitters in your line up.

Clutch 2RBI triple by brett the jet. Poor defense by Victorino there

[Cool Papa B.]

HR by G Money......he's something sort of Grandish!!!!!

[DevsJetsYanks88]

Been a while since the Yanks smacked around Halladay like this.

[Cool Papa B.]

Very sloppy baseball by the Yankees in the top of the 4th. With Howard running from 3B Tex should have gone home. And CC should have covered 1B.

Was not expecting us put up runs like this tonight vs Halladay,.

Brandon Terney is dumb, on the wheel house he was going on how the Rays had a better lineup than the Yankees.

[Cool Papa B.]

When AJ is on, he's great. When he's off.....he's annoying as heck to watch!!!

[Revi$_I$l@nd]

AJ looks like dogsh!t tonight.

Let's hope that was just a one inning implosion, which he's very prone to.







Nice jack by Cano as I type this

With Moyer, the HR king on the mound, this is far from over.

[Revi$_I$l@nd]

Well, Burnett...

With Moyer on the mound, you can't let it get out of hand

Just keep it reasonable doosh. Giving up HR's is Moyer's job.

[Revi$_I$l@nd]

Or not...

I hope Robertson is ready for a long night.

[Tyler Durden]

Walking Brian Schneider 2x is an embarrassment.
