Peter Abraham reports that Chien-Ming Wang is dealing with a strain and bursitis in his right shoulder, and is headed back to the DL. …according to Wang, the pain he felt was far less severe than the shoulder inflammation that put him on the DL for nearly two months in 2005. The doctor he saw this afternoon told him that rest and rehab would take care of his issues in a few weeks. This seems...

More photos » by Bill Kostroun - AP Browse more photos » Game ball goes to Al Aceves, who worked four shutout innings (with one hit, no walks and five strikeouts). Is he now the front-runner for Thursday's start? Girardi said flatly that Hughes won't get the start, so it looks to be Aceves or Scranton's Sergio Mitre . Joba certainly wasn't good. Neither was Ransom. Hinske still hasn't had...

It was extremely tight race in my latest poll, but Phil Hughes pitched his way through the weekend to be voted the most trusted arm out of the Yankees bullpen (besides Mariano Rivera). Alfredo Aceves was the other reliever neck-and-neck with Hughes, but Ace’s great outing Sunday was too little too late. Here are the full results (54 votes): Alfredo Aceves: 33% Brian Bruney: 5% Phil Coke: 5% Phil...

Yankees 6, Blue Jays 5: Jorge Posada singled home Alex Rodriguez with the winning run in the bottom of the 12th inning, but the Yankees were left without starter Chien-Ming Wang, who left his start after 5 1/3 innings with what was later diagnosed as bursitis in his right shoulder. The Yankees won their second straight and ninth in 10 games. But Wang is headed to the disabled list, and the Yankees...

More photos » by Frank Franklin II - AP Browse more photos » In a surprising turn of events, Wang will likely hit the DL with 'shoulder bursitis,' but it won't be Phil Hughes who takes his spot in the rotation ( according to Ty Kepner ). It won't even be Al Aceves. The most likely candidate appears to be Scranton's Sergio Mitre . Wang probably won't be on the DL for much more than a month....

Wang had an MRI after the game and according to Peter Abraham , he's headed to the DL with "a strain with bursitis. But everybody seems to think that he will be back within a month." Back in 2005 Wang missed missed almost two months with right shoulder inflammation, but told reporters after the game that this pain was much less severe than the pain he felt back then. It's a shame because...

More photos » by Carlos Osorio - AP Browse more photos » An interesting footnote in the Times' recap of the first game against the M's. Helping Hughes’s case to stay is the veteran Sergio Mitre , who is 2-0 with a 2.88 E.R.A. in four starts for Class AAA Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Having Mitre as insurance for the rotation lessens the need for Hughes to fill that role. Mitre is 28 years...

From Tyler Kepner : Brian Cashman knew he would be at a ballpark Wednesday. His plan was to drive to Moosic, Pa., to see Sergio Mitre pitch and Xavier Nady play the outfield for the Yankees ’ Class AAA team. Then he watched the way the major league team played Tuesday. After another dreary loss, Cashman, the Yankees’ general manager, decided to fly to Atlanta instead. His presence in the...
