    I'm not worried about the lineup. Swish and Posada are carrying it right now, hopefully long enough until Tex and ARod are back.

    The bullpen is what scares me the most. Nobody is looking good. Coke, Albaladejo, and Veras have been shelled and Ramirez either strikes a guy out or gives up a double it seems. Why has Marte only been in one game? Right now I don't trust a single reliever in that bullpen. Hopefully Bruney gets it together.

    Swish is the second best pitcher in a Yankee uniform, this season.

    When is Swisher set to pitch again? Does he have an innings cap?

    the reason Damon isn't playing is because he is suffering from the flu... awesome

    Ya, the flu sucks. I have it now too. I can barely walk, my joints and shoulders and knees are just aching.

    Poor sellout.

    Finally Ransom is on the bench. Whatever Pena does, it's an upgrade.

    Glad to see Tex back.

    Nice to see Matsui out too. Plus it gives a good excuse to give Posada some rest.

    It's about time Swisher moved to the best part of the order.

    And finally Cano is hitting ahead of Nady. I couldn't understand why at any point they were reversed.

    Bases loaded, none out = 1 run.

    Wonderful.

    That's one more than I expected after Swisher K'd. I thought Posada was going to DP, for sure.

    Ugh, I get it, but I don't like it. The head is not okay territory to throw at.
