Game 3 is Cecil vs. Sabathia, I think. Unless Villanueva is returning to the rotation.

We might get Montero's debut. Hoping he ends up a mediocre DH.

Very winnable series.

Is Montero legit or is he another hyped up Yankee prospect? (Joba, Hughes, etc...)

I dunno. Definitely too hyped, but the bat looks legit.

He already made his debut and went 0-4

Great start. Nice to see the top of the batting order hitting well again.

Damn you Gardner!!

Why did Bautista run passed 2nd base?? Brain fart on his part!

Brett Gardner is damn good. I wish the Jays had him.

Did they ever explain why JP is catching for Morrow last couple games? Are they just trying to get JP to get used to catching for him for the future?

Morrow is so fun to watch when he's on his game.

I guess Molina only gets paid once every five starts and now he catches only for Henderson.

Nice catch and throw by Martin!

Suddenly Morrow has a big HR problem. That's now 11 since the AS break. He gave up 11 all of last year.
