The Yankees made up a BS injury to put Wang on the DL and Brian Bruney is actually injured so he is also now on the 15 day DL.
Cody Ransom (who has been a major hitting liability) is now on the 60 day DL with a quad injury (In other words - the Yankees deemed him useless to the club!)
Angel Berroa will man the fort until A-rod comes back. He had a pretty good spring and can't hit worse than Ransom.
One final note about the transactions, Humberto Sanchez, a former big shot Yankee prospect, was waived by the team. What a bust!
And about the first 2 games. 1)Joba is failing again and again as a starter. The problem is simple. He only throws 92 as a starter which allows hitters to layoff his wicked (but always a ball) slider. At 98, hitters can't layoff the drop off the table slider because they must react faster. 2)Girardi rarely lets a reliever ever get into a rhythm.

Hey, I can't view your site properly within Opera, I actually hope you look into fixing this.
