Today the Yankees played the Phillies at Legends Field, now Stienbrenner Field in Tampa, FL. The Yankees lost 5-4 but it was a good first game. There are a few notes on the players.
Alex Rodriguez is looking great. His hip is no longer bothering him, he lined a sharp double that looked like the old him.
Joba Chamberlin got a new delivery. He is okay not having a definite job in the bullpen. He has worked out in the off-season to build up his upper body.
Francisco Cevelli is looking great. He is the favored to win the catching job. He said he got tired last year and that is why he did not play as well towards the end of the season.
Joe Girardi is pleased with the pitching, and his happy because the minor leagues are filled with good catchers that could do well in the pros.
