The Yankees dealt with injuries and an underperforming lineup in the month of August. In this episode we discuss updates to CC and Tex, what we can expect from Pineda the last month of the season, and who to keep an eye on for September call-ups. We also take two mailbag submissions regarding Stephen Drew, everybody’s favorite Yankee.
CC does not need surgery, which is good news, and has said he will help the team in any way they need him when he comes back — including pitching out of the bullpen. It is good that CC realizes where he is at this point in his career and is putting the team first.
