Scheduled days off in the middle of a homestand are always kinda weird, but I’m sure the players love ’em. The Yankees lost four of the first six games on the homestand and now welcome the Mariners to the Bronx for three games. They took two of three from Seattle in each of their previous two series and a repeat showing would be nice. Here’s the different looking lineup…
CF Curtis Granderson — Joe Girardi doesn’t want to stack the lefties
SS Derek Jeter
2B Robinson Cano
1B Mark Teixeira — the wrist is fine
DH Raul Ibanez
RF Nick Swisher — first time back in the outfield since the hip strain
3B Eric Chavez
LF Ichiro Suzuki
C Russell Martin — catching CC Sabathia for the third time this year
LHP CC Sabathia
Tonight’s game is scheduled to start a little after 7pm ET and can be seen on YES locally and MLB Network nationally. Enjoy.
