Some first day rumblings

The Yanks signed Brett Tomko to a minor league deal today with a spring training invite. Let me tell you, if we see him pitch more than one game as a Yankee, the season will have gone terribly awry.

Andy Pettitte pitched most of the second half last year with severe shoulder soreness. That explains the miserable performance.

A Rod will address the media on Tuesday, He will spend the next four days practicing what he will say in the mirror. Jeter, Posada, Rivera and Pettitte will attend. Maybe the Yankees will be smart and Jeter has been practicing ventriloquism over the offseason, just put some peanut butter in A Rod's mouth and have Derek speak. Hey it worked for Mr. Ed.

Apparently the Yankees are lightening up on the facial hair rule, look at CC and Joba.



Yahoo has some other great photos from spring training.
