IVAN NOVA & THE YANKEES DID SOMETHING TODAY

They avoided arbitration. Boom! That's how that works.

Quick story just to keep you in the loop on Ivan Nova.  According to Joel Sherman of the New York Post, the Yanks and Nova worked toward a figure:

Heard Nova is getting same $3.3M he earned last year #Yankees on 1-yr deal

There you go.

 Let's not forget about Nova.  Even though he left the season early in 2014 because he needed Tommy John Surgery, it doesn't mean he'll be out this season. He'll be back and will be a factor. He just won't be back at the beginning of the season.

I look forward to seeing Nova on the mound again.
