Freddie's a Go!

JoeGNJ Posts: 9,688	OUCH! Yankees commit to Garcia for next start ARLINGTON -- Freddy Garcia's troublesome outing against the Red Sox will not push him to the Yankees bullpen, as manager Joe Girardi said that the veteran right-hander "absolutely" will remain in the club's starting rotation. The Yankees have not yet decided how to align their rotation beyond Friday, when Ivan Nova is scheduled to pitch against the Tigers at Yankee Stadium. They could pitch Garcia on Saturday or bring back ace CC Sabathia on his regular rest. "We're not sure what we'll do, if we'll put Freddy there or bring CC back on his normal rest," Girardi said. "But Freddy's going to pitch again, if that's the question. Freddy's going to start again." JoeGNJ

Girardi is saying all the right things, but bottom line is Andy will be with the Yanks soon, and I think it will be Garcia the one to go.
