Baseball’s Savior

One thing about being a Yankees fan is, you can pretty much ignore anything that happens in March.  Doesn’t matter if the Yankees win all of their spring games or lose them all, you know they’ll be in the mix in October. This year highlights that even more because most of the real Yankees are off playing in the WBC.

Regardless, it gives me something to write about.  The Yankees improved to 6-5 on the spring with a beatdown of the Braves.  Jorge Posada went yard and drove in three runs and Chien-Ming Wang threw three very good innings.  He gave up only a single hit and he struck out four without giving up a run.  Shawn Chacon throws for the Yanks today against the Indians.

Carl Pavano continues his rehab.  Based on what Torre’s said, I see Pavano starting the season on the DL, but if he’s back by late April or early May, it will give the rotation a boost.
