YANKEE NUGGETS THAT MAKE YOU GO HMMM

Yeah...for some strange reason, C+C Music Factory was on my Ipod. Sometimes songs get on there that I probably loaded from my old CDs.  I'm not going to lie, it's fun to hear these old songs and sure, somehow I work them into my BYB titles...I'm sad.

Ryota Igarashi: The Yankees claimed the right hander pitcher from the Blue Jays yesterday.  You can read about it HERE. Igarashi was just designated for assignment by the Jays on Sunday.  He was 5-2 with a 5.74 ERA for the Mets in the 2010 and 2011 season.  In Triple A for the Blue Jays this season he was 1-1 with a 1.29 ERA. He'll report to Yankees Triple A.

David Robertson: We wrote on Monday (Read in TEN DAYS AWAY FOR BRETT GARDNER) that David Robertson was to throw catch and we'd give you an update on that session.  Robertson felt no pain. Don't forget, DRob had a strained oblique and was on the 15 day DL, but then he needed a few "extra" days...the Yankees didn't want to force it.  Well... good news now I suppose.  So, when do we activate David Robertson? I can't wait to get this guy back.

Hideki Matsui: Godzilla was added to the Tampa Bay Rays major league roster yesterday and homered in his debut, read HERE. It's going to be interesting to see what he can offer the Rays.  You know I love Matsui and I would have been thrilled to see him back with the Yankees this season, but, so far Brian Cashman looks pretty smart signing Raul Ibanez over Matsui and Johnny Damon.  Ibanez has a .260 AVG with 9 home runs.
 

Lem Allen: Lem was over at Citi Field a few weeks ago, not the watch the Mets as much as he wanted to just wear his BleedingYankeeBlue.com shirt out in Mets-land to piss all the fans off.  Pretty hilarious if you ask me.  Anyway, I love the balls on Lem and it's great advertising for us.  This is a reminder, if you still want a BleedingYankeeBlue.com shirt, just click on BUY NOW on the right side of this page, use Paypal to order, it's so easy.  If you need to send a check or money order, you may.
