Game 59: If we don’t give up 9 runs, we just might win (http://riveraveblues.com/feed)

Wed, 04 Jun 2008 22:38:22 GMT

Just a couple of notes on the lineup. Posada has been activated, replacing Dan Giese on the roster. Which is a shame, considering LaTroy Hawkins is still around (and yeah, a bunch of other guys in the bullpen who could have been optioned out — at least it wasn’t Chris Britton. Giambi tweaked his foot [...]

Brian Cashman is confused by Chris Britton, too (http://riveraveblues.com/feed)

Mon, 02 Jun 2008 14:13:20 GMT

Yankee fans witnessed a rare occurrence yesterday afternoon when Number 47 ambled out of the bullpen to throw the last two innings of a seemingly lost cause. For Chris Britton, it was just his third (!) appearance of this season, and it became increasingly clear that, for whatever reason, Britton is the very last man [...]

Yankees walk the tightrope then win (The LoHud Yankees Blog)

Sun, 01 Jun 2008 05:20:29 GMT

This was the first extra-innings road win for the Yankees since April 14, 2007. Joe Girardi was on the horn with Brian Cashman after the game. Expect a new reliever tomorrow. No idea as yet who it will be. The bullpen is pretty beat up, especially given that they refuse to use Chris Britton in any [...]

Kennedy headed to DL; Joba could start next week (Pinstripe Alley)

Wed, 28 May 2008 10:06:56 GMT

Pete Abe reports that Ian Kennedy will be sent back to New York for an MRI and will be placed on the 15-day DL with the strained lat muscle he suffered in the middle of an unbelievably wet and sloppy night for the Yankees. I would expect Chris Britton to get another call-up tonight from the "Scranton Shuttle Bus Crew" as Kennedy is officially placed on the DL and I wouldn't be at all...

DFA Hawkins, call up Britton (True Yankee Blog)

Wed, 28 May 2008 04:28:19 GMT

When the Yankees signed LaTroy Hawkins, I said “It's a one-year deal, so if he isn't pitching well, then he’ll be cut.” Hawkins’ ERA is now 6.75. He isn't pitching well and he needs to be cut. Chris Britton at Triple-A: 13 IP 12 HA 3 R 3 ER 4 BB 12 K Also, Hawkins just made it [...]

Still a guess, though. — Miley said he still wasn't sure whether Juan Miranda would be placed on the disabled list …

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, [...]

Can Edwar prove he belongs? (Bugs and Cranks)

Wed, 30 Apr 2008 03:21:34 GMT

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 [...]
