PREGAME NOTES:

Johnny Damon took BP this morning and launched a couple of dingers in the upper deck. Girardi seemed to indicate that Damon could be activated this weekend without going on a rehab assignment.
David Robertson has been very impressive in his last three outings (3.0 IP, 0 ER, 0 H, 1 BB, 7 K).
Sean Gallagher has never faced the Yanks or any of their players. He was 0-4, 5.05 ERA, 1.49 WHIP in 8 games (6 starts) on the road this season with the Chicago Cubs.
Joba Chamberlain has never faced the Athletics. He is 1-1, 2.81 ERA, 1.42 WHIP in 8 starts since his move to the rotation.

Man if Joba stays healthy...

...he is going to be a force for many many years.

Which is why I was so adamant about Joba’s move to the rotation this season no matter how the bullpen pitched without him. Turns out the bullpen has been very good – much better than anyone could have anticipated.
