David Phelps' last outing against the New York Mets is one that any starting pitcher would like to forget. The Mets drew a five-spot on the board, chasing Phelps from the game after recording only one out.
Now he'll try to regain form facing a team that he's already pitched well against this season, the Cleveland Indians.Phelps allowed one run over 6.2 innings in a start against the Indians back in May.
Tonight's lineup:
Suzuki CF
Nix SS
Teixeira 1B
Cano DH
Wells LF
Youkilis 3B
Adams 2B
Overbay RF
Stewart C
Phelps P
This Yankees lineup will be given the challenge of facing a rather familiar AL East foe, in lefty Scott Kazmir (3-2, 5.13), formerly of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.
Many have speculated that this could be big start for Phelps. Should take the mound and pitch poorly once again, it wouldn't be hard to see the Yankees then giving Ivan Nova another crack at the starting job.
Nunez suffers another setback:
We're coming up on a month since Eduardo Nunez went down with some issues in his rib area. He's suffered a few setback along the way that he kept him from returning. Nunez suffered another setback on Tuesday while trying to swing a bat, and definitely doesn't fell ready according to Girardi.
Yankees GM Brian Cashman said that Nunez will be taken to undergo an MRI and as a of right now there is no timetable when when we could possibly see Nunie back on the field.
In his absence the Yankees have work a few guys at Jeter's old stomping ground but Jayson Nix has been playing the most at short and is playing fairly well in Nunez's place.
