Pete Abe reports that Jorge Posada was in the original lineup but scratched due to a stiff right shoulder after tweaking it last night making a throw. The injury is not considered serious and is day-to-day.
AJ Burnett is a lifetime 3-2, 3.20 ERA in 6 starts against the Yanks, including 1-0, 0.60 ERA in 2 starts in 2007.
