Chad Jennings mentioned yesterday that Alan Horne was shipped down to Tampa so the head honchos can figure out what the hell is wrong with him. Horne’s medical history isn’t pretty, but after going injury free in 2006 & 2007, I figured that was all in the past. Now it’s starting to look like those two years were the exception rather than the rule.

The Rookie GCL Yankees had their game suspended due to rain after 7 innings. Frankie Cervelli continues his comeback from some mystery injury, and spark provider Shelley Duncan played in his first game since separating his shoulder diving for a ball several weeks ago. They’re currently tied at five, and will probably wrap this one up tomorrow. I’ll update the stats then.
