Ohlendorf continues to help the Yanks

By Mike Axisa

Pitching for Triple-A Indianapolis last night, ex-Yankee Ross Ohlendorf walked a rehabbing Michael Cuddyer in the first inning, then threw a pitch that the next batter ripped down the first base line. The ball hit Cuddyer as he tried to jump out of the way, breaking his foot and effectively ending his season. Cuddyer was scheduled to come off the DL in the coming days and make his return to the lineup when the Yanks visit Minnesota early next week. Thanks Ross, we know you and your Princeton education planned that.

Ouch babe.

Seriously, why does Michael Cuddyer seem to always do something against us? He’s like Jay Payton when we play the Orioles, only a lot better.

Why is Ross in AAA? He can’t help the Pirates in the majors?

 
Corey says:

since this is the 1st, it sounds like they are converting him to a starter

Link says:

the Yanks had already started that process before they traded him…he was originally a starter.

Ouch Mike, cheering a guy’s injury? Wouldn’t you rather beat them at full strength so they don’t have any excuses after the fact?

Mike A. says:

That was kind of messed up, huh?

Whitey14 says:

It seemed out of character so we’ll let it go ;-)
