PrintCC Sabathia gets his first taste of game action today (as does Russell Martin). He'll be relieved by Pedro Feliciano, Manny Banuelos and Mark Prior, among others.
Miguel Cabrera will also see his first game action since being arrested for DUI on February 17.
Gametime is 1 p.m. but it won't be televised.

Man i wish we can put betance/Banuelos into a hyperbolic time chamber. So much rather see them as our 5th than Garcia or Colon.
What we really need is a FAST FORWARD SELECTA

Trenton Thunder ...
Putting the killer B’s in Trenton will give them some serious thunder. Historically it’s been the Yankees way to start veterans over youth. Sure there are rare exceptions, but I suspect we’ll see Colon and Garcia at the start of the season. I also suspect that after each makes three or four starts, the wheels will likely fall off Colon and one of the B’s will be a buzzin’ in NYC.
And if Banuelos is magical in NJ, by mid-season he’ll be donning the pinstripes and we’ll be drawing comparisons to Dwight Gooden of 25 years ago.

They need to send
that Maxwell dude back to the minors NOW…Good Lord. I guess he hasn’t gotten to the part of the book where it instructs a player how to swing the bat.

Duggan, how did Prior look?

Extremely pleased with what I've seen in the boxscore
Banuelos follows up Betances with a solid inning of his own.
March 31st can't come soon enough.
Prior threw a perfect inning too
Nice to see him throw a good inning also
Who cares about this when Bryce Harper just pinch ran!
Wonder how douchey his eye black looks…
Life is the highway, but personal experiences are the journey
You know what's cool?
Before I joined PA I, and many of my acquaintances, thought I was pretty out there to get so into my team’s games during Spring Training. And, thanks to you all, my fellow fanatics, I now know I’m not fanatical all alone. This internet thingy is a pretty cool invention. Thanks Al…

Greg Golson was hit in the head by A.J. Burnett during a batting practice session on Sunday morning.
Golson was taken off the field in a cart, but fortunately everything checked out OK. “He [Golson] probably won’t play [today],” said Girardi. “But he is OK.” As easy as it would be to blame this incident on the erratic Burnett, the Yankees feel the glare made the ball impossible for Golson to pick up. According to Marc Carig of the Newark Star-Ledger, the Yankees plan to stop hitting on the back field of their spring training facility

but has this game become as unbearable as it seems?

It’s pitchers who aren’t going to make the team not pitching well, and hitters who can’t hit not hitting. Pretty typical for spring training.
