Yankees News and Notes

The Yankees pitching coming into Sat has been great.  Ivan Nova and Freddy Garcia have done nothing to hurt their chances of being in the rotation but Bartolo Colon looks pretty good also.  He threw three shutout innings on Friday.  The young guys have really impressed, Manny Banuelos and Dellin Betances look like real deals.  They will begin the year in AA Trenton but could move quick.  They just have to remain healthy.

Here is my article on the Yankees defeating the Phillies in Clearwater. Dellin Betances stole the show by striking out the side in his one inning of work.
