Lots of lineup changes against the left-hander, most notably, Jose Molina returns behind the plate and Jorge Posada gets the start at 1B. According to Pete Abe, Posada may catch tomorrow or Tuesday in the Windy City. My guess is Tuesday with the day off on Monday.

Here's a very disturbing tidbit; Jason Giambi is 3 for 3 with 2 home runs and a double against Mike Timlin of the Red Sox this season and a NL pitcher-esque 2 for 40 (.050) with a double against everyone else. Yikes.

Nothing has been confirmed yet, but Edwar Ramirez appears headed back to Scranton now that Chamberlain has returned.

Ian Kennedy makes his first career start against the Orioles.

Brian Burres is a lifetime 1-2, 4.64 ERA in 7 games (3 starts) against the Bombers. Yanks'career numbers vs. Burres can be viewed here.
