The Yankees don’t have an official Grapefruit League game to play today, but some players still got their regularly scheduled work in. Let’s briefly recap…
- CC Sabathia and Bartolo Colon faced off in a simulated game, pitching to a total of four minor leaguers (two righties, two lefties). CC threw 82 pitches (51 strikes) and struck out four with two walks in 6.1 “innings” while Colon threw 79 pitches (56 strikes) and struck out seven in six frames. Nothing crazy, just getting some work in and staying on schedule. (Yankees PR Dept.)
- Joe Girardi said he expects Manny Banuelos, Andrew Brackman, and Dellin Betances to make at least one more pitching appearance each before being sent to minor league camp. Kyle Higashioka was sent down today. (Chad Jennings)
- Mark Prior’s sick and will probably be away from the team for a day or two. Hopefully it’s not his arm that’s sick. (Jennings)
