The neglected bullpen pitcher Chris Britton should rejoin the team today and actually, you know, pitch in some games due to another injury for the Yanks. Jonathan Albaladejo has what the team is calling an elbow strain or sprain and will land on the DL. He’s due for an MRI in New York on Monday, [...]

My man Edwar Ramirez has been re-called (again) by the Yankees with the seemingly unwanted Chris Britton shuffled back to Scranton. Britton never got in a game — I don't even think he warmed up — after being recalled a few days ago. Anyway, I’m glad to see Edwar back in the big leagues. He was [...]

With Jon Alabaladejo’s and Chris Britton's promotions to the major league team, Scranton needed another bullpen arm. Steven Jackson got the nod. He’s struck out 18 and walked three in 16 innings for Trenton. It appears the Yanks want to see what the 26-year-old can do at a higher level. David Robertson, three years Jackson's [...]

When Chris Britton received word of his trade from the Orioles to the Yankees, he probably thought he had died and gone to heaven. Escaping Baltimore’s baseball purgatory is a dream come true for any Major Leaguer. Little did Britton, now 25, realize that the Yanks simply wanted him to get outs at AAA. After [...]

Phil Hughes started today's game at the Reds, but was pulled after 2.2 IP, having given up 4 ER on 9 hits, 5 of which were doubles. The bullpen's performance was mixed, as Jonathan Albaledejo and Edwar Ramirez combined for three perfect innings before Heath Phillips and Chris Britton blew the lead. The offensive side was quite [...]
