In case you missed it earlier, the Yankees have signed fourth rounder Matt Duran for $335,000. Ivan Nova threw a simulated game tonight and all went well, so he’s on track to start one the games in this Saturday’s doubleheader. Tyler Austin hasn’t played in a while because of an injured hand, and he had an MRI today. No word on the results or what the actual injury is. Dan Brewer is close to coming back from his hamstring problem. Austin Romine was out of the lineup again tonight (second night in a row), but apparently he’s healthy and there’s “nothing brewin’“. Speculate at your own risk.
Triple-A Scranton (15-1 win over Syracuse)
Rafael Soriano, RHP: 1 IP, zeroes, 1 K, 2-0 GB/FB – eight of his 11 pitches were strikes … he was at 94 mph last night and then 93 mph tonight, so he bounced back well … he’s heading back to New York tonight, and said he doesn’t care what his role is going forward … oh, and this was his first 1-2-3 inning since Opening Day
