Some notes:
- Derek Jeter is not listed in any activities today, probably to give his swollen ankle a break.
- Via Bryan Hoch’s twitter: Mason Williams has been called to Yankees camp for the day, listed as backup center fielder.
If Gardner and Nunez are one two in the line up I wish they would think about putting ''Gardner second. if Nunez gets on he will have plenty of time to check out the pitcher with Gardner's patchence.
The only problem is while Nunez has a lot of speed from what I've seen he really isn't that good of a base runner.
I really feel after the way Nuno has pitched this spring he deserves a chance to head north with the team when spring training ends. I like Wang as much as the next Yankee fan, but what purpose does it serve if a guy performs well in ST and then gets overlooked for his big chance. It's not like Wang is a long term solution for the Yankees all he would be if the Yankees signed him is insurance, Nuno can certainly be that insurance and maybe more. Just my opinion.
Would anyone be surprised if I said Nunez committed an error this afternoon? Well you shouldn't be, because he did in the 5th inning.
