Notes: The Yankees are 6-0 against the Mariners, outscoring them 50-17. … The Yankees are 3-1 on their road trip and have won five of their last eight games.

WELCOME BACK: Melky Cabrera rejoins the Yankees today. He was optioned down on Aug. 15 because of a .242 batting average. Cabrera hit .333 in 15 games for Triple-A Scranton with five RBI. He was 0 for 4 last night in Pawtucket, R.I., in an International League playoff game.

LONG WALK HOME: This road trip will encompass 7,140 miles and require 18 hours in the air according to traveling secretary Ben Tuliebitz. The Yankees have already been to Detroit and Tampa and still have to go to Anaheim.

Just in the knick of not being in time, Darrell Rasner has been taken out of the rotation.

Uhhhhhhhhhhh Joe your 2 months late with this move.

Yup Joe really dropped the ball with leaving Rasner in the rotation. Next year that piece of garbage should be nowhere near the Yankees, unless its AA single A

fixed it.
