Not sure who else is supposed to pitch for the Yankees

It's going to definitely be a fun game to watch and I'm hoping the Twins can pull out a win on National Television, yeah, that'll show 'em! (I wish)

La Velle E. Neal III also reported that Francisco Liriano will start Friday's game against the Boston Red Sox. He also said that the Twins are working with Liriano to reduce the way he spins in his follow-through.

I also just noticed for the first time (probably has been this way for a while), but the Twins website has added Delmon Young to the top of the page, and took out Johan Santana. But like I said, I just noticed it today, but it's probably been there for a while.
