The Yankees are really looking old these days. Controversy rears its ugly head once again with Jorge Posada apparently disgruntled with Joe Girardi's decision to have him bat ninth, is turning into a big deal. The other thing worth noting is the Bombers aren't winning games, and were swept at home vs. Boston, and historically have a letdown after the Boston series. The Yankees’ bats were as quiet as a church mouse, and David Price isn't exactly going to get a fight started at the Yankees’ bat rack to rush to the plate. Tampa Bay looked like a team heading nowhere off a brutal start, but are now perched atop the AL East and looking good all around. A.J. Burnett is scoring wins vs. bad teams, but New York’s nine are just 2-14 when he takes the hill vs. a winning team in his last 16, and 0-7 on the road. Play on Tampa Bay in this one.
