Update: Curtis Granderson day-to-day with “mild tendinitis” in hamstring
By4:22pm: Granderson has been “mild diagnosis” with tendinitis and there is no further damage. No strain, no tear, nothing like that. Joe Girardi said Granderson could play as soon as tomorrow, but I’m guessing he’ll get a day or two off. Especially with three games on the turf coming up, he might just DH instead. Glad it’s nothing more serious.
2:23pm: The Yankees announced that Granderson left the game with a tight right hamstring. He’ll head for an MRI later today. Either way, they can’t afford to lose another bat to injury.
1:50pm: Curtis Granderson left this afternoon’s game for an unknown reason after two innings. Replays showed him grimacing just a bit during his at-bat before talking with Joe Girardi and trainer Steve Donohue between innings. No idea what’s up, so stay tuned.

Fuck me sideways.
Did it appear to be arm, leg, or something else?
My money is on his arm, back, or maybe even an oblique.
Hope it’s not an oblique…seems like those things take forever to heal.
don’t go to Vegas anytime soon
OH GOD
Great, this is all we need.This team is getting really hard to watch. They seem so lackadsical, like they’re waiting for something to happen instead of making something happen. Maybe Joe G should stop yelling at hecklers and start yelling at some of his players. This team needs a serious wake up call NOW!
Hopefully blowing a 9 game lead will be the wake up call but I doubt it
I know right i am so pissed about this crap i wiah george was still alive because he would wake this club up and put us on the right track
i went wish
ment
Keep trying.
Lent?
Pent?
Kent?
Spelung ez nat has stranth
Not like they can’t replace his 0-4 with 3 strikeouts performances.
You will notice him missing in CF, be assured of that.
You will also notice that Cano will get even fewer pitches to hit, if that’s possible
Granderson hasn’t played well in the field this year. Dickerson or Ichiro might be an upgrade.
I bet it’s an oblique which translates to the DL
Tight right hamstring!
F*ck me in the goat ass.
Call this a crazy idea, but I finally figured out why the team is losing! They are all rebelling against management! It all started with the Suzuki deal, but it seems that there is some internal fighting going on we aren’t privy to! Could this injuries be part of that scheme? I haven’t heard of so many players having hamstring injuries and going in a slump at the same time!
Sounds plausible.
Yup. Crazy idea.
Why would they be mad about the Suzuki deal?
I Love this tame nyc
Fuck me with a stick. Team’s fucking boned.
Cut out the gay references
Tendinitis in a hamstring??
Girardi said that a timetable depends on how Granderson feels. He said it’s possible he plays tomorrow.
This is like a game thread, only shorter.
So our line up during possibly the biggest stretch of the season is going to be:
Jeter SS
Swisher RF
Cano 2nd
Jones DH
Chavez 3B
Pearce 1B
Ibanez LF
Martin C
Suzuki CF
Ibanez DH and Dickerson LF. That’s probably only for tomorrow though. hopefully Grandy can at least DH against the Rays.
I never heard of hamstring tendonitis but @ http://www.physioadvisor.com.a.....physio.htm
they say it’s more like “over-use” of the hamstring which I guess makes sense since he almost never has a day off.
On a separate note – does anyone else feel like we’re being force-fed Nunez? I hope this is a “show-me” thing and they trade him for a good shortstop but it doesn’t look that way.
Soon we’ll be playing how many errors can a SS have in a game now that the pies are gone and the untuck (pls G-d) will be gone-
Sorry, sorry – I’m just going to be happy and root for the U.
I don’t. He’s a September call-up playing his 21st game in the bigs–how is that “being force-fed?”
By the way, after those 21 games he’s 4th on the team in SBs. If Andruw Jones doesn’t pow-wow soon with his moms or granny or whatever hitting coach he uses, I’d rather see Nunez DH against lefties.
I was actually happy to see Nunez back today. He’s a decent hitter relative to a lot of schlubs currently in the lineup.
Dickerson becomes an important part. Rather see him out there than Jones at this point.
Or even Nunez over Jones. The kid can hit LH pitching.
I would bet on Jones turning it around at some point. If not this season, next. You’re still dealing with like two months worth of PAs for his season to date.
right Ted ! like who gives a shit about next season. 4 weeks left in this season and he still can´t hit LHP, which is why NY resigned him. He should have been dfa´d weeks ago.
Jones won’t even be on the Yankees next season, so it won’t do them any good if he turns it around then.
I love Nunez, no one diss him! He is what the yanks need. Put him in RF
