Flustered Joe Girardi has an issue at DH with Alex Rodriguez, Carlos Beltran

NEW YORK -- Joe Girardi was flailing as badly as his batters were all day. When Girardi becomes flustered on the news conference podium, it usually belies a bigger concern.

So a question that could have been swatted away with a little finesse riled up the Yankees manager after the New York Yankees lost 3-1 to the Toronto Blue Jays. He lost his poise and perhaps revealed his actual thoughts.

What set Girardi off was being asked once again about the impact of Alex Rodriguez's return from the disabled list and to the DH, which forced Carlos Beltran's move to right field.
