STEWART AVOIDS THE DL & CERVELLI NEWS

 Latest out of Yankeeland is that Chris Stewart will avoid the Disabled list after his groin pull in last night's game.  According to the Yankees and Mike Axisa of RAB, the MRI game back clean.

So what does this mean? It means that Austin Romine will temporarily have the starting role and Chris Stewart is there and can "pitch in" in an emergency.

In other catching news.  Everyone is asking about Francisco Cervelli. Not much but he's on his road to recovery.  He also states that he plans on altering his catching style a bit.  I've been saying for weeks here on Bleeding Yankee Blue. I've stated that that bare hand needs to be behind his back.  That's basic Little League stuff.  As the Star-Ledger (HERE) had it back after the injury happened: "As Francisco Cervelli settled in behind the plate on Friday night, he said he considered the tendencies of Toronto leadoff hitter Rajai Davis. Davis often hit foul balls, and Cervelli utilized his bare right hand to help him receive. 'I’ve got to hide my hand a little bit,” he recalled thinking at the time....And that pitch? Boom,' Cervelli said."

Hopefully the guy will be back sometime and June and there are no complications. I'd love for him to continue that hot streak once he returns.
