Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Alex Rodriguez launched the 659th home run of his career to move within one of Willie Mays as the Yankees beat the Mets 6-4 to take the rubber game of their series at Yankee Stadium. Rodriguez launched a solo shot to right-center field in the first and the Yankees added four runs in the second off Mets starter Jon Niese. They hit four doubles in the inning and had four two-out hits, capped by an RBI double by Rodriguez. A-Rod’s 523rd career double tied him with Mays for 43rd all-time. The offense allowed the Yankees to survive a rocky start from Nathan Eovaldi, who was hit hard in 4 1/3 innings. He surrendered four runs on seven hits, including a leadoff homer to Curtis Granderson and a pair of RBI doubles by Daniel Murphy. The Yankee bullpen threw 4 2/3 scoreless innings. Chasen Shreve earned the win and Andrew Miller had his seventh save in as many opportunities. The Yankees return to the Stadium tomorrow night to host Tampa for the start of a three-game series.

Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Right-hander Chase Whitley will be called up to make a spot start this coming Tuesday, Joe Girardi told reporters this afternoon. The Yankees have been talking about using an occasional sixth starter to give the rotation extra rest whenever possible for weeks now, and this will be the first time they actually do it.

Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 With Whitley going Tuesday, it means Masahiro Tanaka will pitch Wednesday and Michael Pineda will start the series opener at Fenway Park on Friday. Thanks to Whitley and Thursday’s off-day, Pineda will have two extra days of rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Whitley, 25, has a 2.12 ERA (2.85 FIP) in three starts and 17 innings for Triple-A Scranton this year. He’s thrown as many as 89 pitches in a game this year and will be on one extra day of rest Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 UTIL Jose Pirela has been added to the High-A Tampa roster, the team announced. This officially kicks off his 20-day minor league rehab window. Also, RHP Andrew Bailey was assigned to Extended Spring Training. Not sure what’s going on there.

Scott Dierking Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Good win, bullpen has been as dominant as we all felt it should be. Bullpen looked very good. Got to inject some youth in that line-up at some point soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Bullpen looked very good. Got to inject some youth in that line-up at some point soon. Pirela will probably be the first guy up and probably would've broke camp with the team if not for injury. Him taking over for Gregorio Petit will be an upgrade. • Infielder Jose Pirela began a rehab assignment with Tampa. He went 0 for 4 with a run scored as the DH.

Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 • The Yankees are now 8-2 after their 3-6 start and have won series from the AL-leading Tigers and NL-leading Mets in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 • Girardi remained hopeful that Jacoby Ellsbury will play Monday. He did not check to see if the center fielder was available because of how the game unfolded, but would have had they needed him if the Mets extended the game.

Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 • This bullpen is good. Andrew Miller obviously looks great, Dellin Betances seems to be thoroughly back on track, and the pen has legitimate depth now that Chasen Shreve and Chris Martin seem to have established themselves as legitimate big league options. It’s a good bullpen, which makes it interesting to think about what might happen when Chris Capuano and Ivan Nova are ready to go (but, as always, these things seem to take care of themselves).

Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 • The Yankees have been picking their battles with John Ryan Murphy — most of his at-bats have come against lefties, and he hasn’t hit much in his few at-bats against righties — but he’s really thrived so far. He’s been productive at the plate, and he’s really thrived behind the plate as well. Francisco Cervelli has been pretty decent in Pittsburgh, but I can’t imagine the Yankees regret that trade. Justin Wilson’s been good (except that one brutal outing), Murphy is clearly ready for a big league job, and Austin Romine cleared waivers to keep the catching depth intact.

Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 • Speaking of alternatives, Jose Pirela has started a rehab assignment. Gregorio Petit has played better lately, but I still wonder if Pirela might come straight to New York once he’s ready to play regularly. Petit’s only playing second base anyway, so the fact Pirela can’t play shortstop is a non-issue, and he certainly seems to be an offensive upgrade.

Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 • And speaking of the bullpen, would it make sense on Tuesday to bring up Chase Whitley in place of Petit, then replace Whitley with Pirela on Wednesday? If not, the Yankees would have to send down either Shreve or Martin to make room for their spot starter. That might be a way to make the move without making a change in the bullpen. That said, there are plenty of Triple-A relievers who are pitching well and could come up to fill a hole. Going without Petit for a day would leave the Yankees without a backup middle infielder.

Jetlife33 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 • As for the decision to use Whitley as a spot starter, the Yankees clearly had this in mind when they sent Whitley to Triple-A to start the season. He pitched well enough in spring training to win a spot in the big league bullpen, but it seems safe to assume the Yankees wanted him stretched out for exactly this kind of spot-start opportunity. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have kept him on schedule to so perfectly pitch in Masahiro Tanaka’s place. Bryan Mitchell’s past two starts have been terrific for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, but he’s not lined up the way Whitley is (and Whitley’s been plenty good himself).
