Angels at Yankees

The Yankees are scheduled to finish their 4 game series with the Angels today at 1:00PM on YES. It is currently raining very hard and I am doubtful that they can get this game in. The problem is that the Angels don't come back to NY at all this season so they could wait around for a while before deciding to call if if they do. Damso Marte has been placed on the DL with a shoulder problem and Anthony Claggett has been recalled also something else may be up as no lineup is posted for the Yankees and Girardi is late to meet with the press for his pregame session. This information is coming from Peter Abraham. Phil Hughes is scheduled to start today looking to go 2-0 and make the Yankees think of keeping him in the big leagues. In 7 of the 11 losses by the Yankees they have had at least a 1 run lead Jose Veras can't get anyone out giving up 5 runs in his last 2 2/3 innings along with 5 hits and 4 walks. This is a wierd stat, when the Yankees don't make an error they are 11-3 and 2-8 when they do. Hideki Matsui has a 12 game hitting streak batting 370 with 6 extra base hits and 9 RBI. He must be feeling better. Melky has a 7 game hitting streak and the Yankees are 6-3 at home. The lineup has been posted now and here it is: Jeter(SS) Damon(LF) Tex(1B) Matsui(DH) Posada(C) Cano(2B) Cabrera(RF) Berroa(3B) Gardner(CF) I guess Nick Swisher is still banged up and Angel Berroa must have good numbers against Joe Saunders otherwise why is he playing.
