Game 5: New York Yankees at Toronto Blue Jays - Michael Pineda vs. RA Dickey

Time for another (hopefully) fun Yankee debut.

Yesterday, we saw a Yankee starting pitcher make his regular season debut, and today we get to see another. Yesterday was all about Masahiro Tanaka, but today is Michael Pineda's turn. Pineda will finally make his Yankee debut, over two years after being acquired from the Mariners. Hopefully this will go as well as Tanaka's start did yesterday.

In less happier news, the Yankees have placed Mark Teixeira on the DL and called up Austin Romine. You can read more about that here.
