PREGAME NOTES:
Yanks make several roster moves: Newly acquired Xavier Nady and Damaso Marte are expected to be in uniform today. Nady is in today's starting lineup and will play LF.
Kei Igawa has been removed from the 40-man roster, which essentially means he cleared waivers because nobody wanted him. So the Yanks are stuck with him.
LaTroy Hawkins has finally been DFA'd. Brett Gardner has been sent back down to Scranton.
Yanks have won 7 straight games and 12 of 15. They have also won 11 straight games in which they've scored first.
Andy Pettitte is a lifetime 15-7, 3.61 ERA, 1.37 WHIP in 30 games (28 starts) against the Red Sox. He is 6-2, 2.18 ERA, 1.02 WHIP over his last 8 starts.
Tim Wakefield is a lifetime 9-16, 5.01 ERA, 1.42 WHIP in 46 games (29 starts) against the Yanks. He is 5-2, 3.04 ERA, 1.07 WHIP in 8 starts at Fenway this season.
