The Yankees had less injuries amongst their pitching staff in May but it wasn’t a strong month for everyone. Most missed was Alfredo Aceves who headed for the disabled list to be replaced by new signing Chad Gaudin who had been released by the same organisation in March:
May was a month when the Yankees had to deal with a lot of injuries and in which the comfortable lead they had achieved in April gradually disappeared resulting in the Tampa Bay Rays passing them at the head of the division. Given the extent of their injuries, they had a reasonable month. Here are the players who were at the heart of it:

Anyone in Brighton wishing to see Circolombia (it’s a circus, it’s from Colombia) at Freerange at the Fringe Festival, can get two tickets for the price of one for Thursday’s performance. Mention my name and the choreographer, Felicity Simpson at the box office and they’ll sort you out. I’ve seen them in rehearsal and they’re very, very good indeed.

Last season, the Yankees had 3 stellar starters and a strong bullpen but the last two spots on the rotation were a gaping hole. Javier Vazquez and Phil Hughes have been nominated to fill that gap. So far, this plan has met with some success….
In 2009, the New York Yankees won the world series. In 2009, April was a horrible month for the New York Yankees.
By contrast, 2010 has seen the Yankees have an exceptional April. Will they maintain the level of performance and have another 100+ game winning season? If they can steer clear of major injuries all the evidence suggests they will.
