The Yankees only have two more officially Grapefruit League games left to play, and they’ll play both in the next 24 hours. Tonight they get the Orioles on the road in Sarasota, with David Phelps closing the book on a solid spring: ten runs, seven walks, and 18 strikeouts in 22.2 innings. He stunk the last two times out, so a good effort tonight to finish March on a high note would be cool. Here’s the starting nine that will back him up…

  1. CF Brett Gardner
  2. SS Eduardo Nunez
  3. 1B Lyle Overbay
  4. RF Brennan Boesch
  5. LF Ben Francisco
  6. 2B Jayson Nix
  7. DH Thomas Neal
  8. 3B Ronnie Mustelier
  9. C Bobby Wilson

And on the mound is Phelps, Phil Hughes’ temporary rotation replacement. No word on the second stringers, but rumor has it Mason Williams is in the house. Tonight’s game is scheduled to start a little after 7pm ET and can be seen on MLB Network and MLB.tv (no local blackouts). The game will not air on YES. Enjoy.
