Some updates on the walking wounded …
- Mark Teixeira (calf) said he’s feeling “better” and expects to play when the Yankees get to Baltimore later in the week. Three games on the turf in Tropicana isn’t the smartest idea with a leg problem. Teixeira did take batting practice and ground balls/throws at first today, which I think he’s been doing that for a few days now.
- Curtis Granderson (hamstring) is feeling better and took batting practice before the game. Joe Girardi is wary playing him on the turf right away, but he could return to the lineup as the DH as soon as tomorrow.
- Andy Pettitte (leg) feels fine following yesterday’s bullpen session and will throw live batting practice on Wednesday. It’ll be his first time facing hitters since Casey Kotchman broke his leg with that comebacker.
- Ivan Nova (shoulder) also feels fine following yesterday’s bullpen session. He’ll face hitters in live batting practice either tomorrow or Wednesday.
