- Just because Joe Girardi is using C.C. Sathathia doesn't mean he is going to be effective. He is gambling.

- Fister did get great work to get out of that jam, but his pitch count is up. Yankees will be dangerous against him next time around in the order.

- I don't think Jim Leyland was right to have Justin Verlander throw a side session, even if he has no intention on using him tonight. You never when it might be feasible to use him.
