Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez will have his right hip examined this week, although he insists he's not feeling pain and has no desire to miss any playing time.
The Yankees ended their six-game slide and avoided hitting the .500 mark after being seven games over and in first place a week ago thanks to Ivan Nova.
Now that the Jorge Posada saga is dead and dissected, attention turns to his BFF, Derek Jeter. Posada is a precursor, the lead man in a conga line of players Girardi must assuage as they age.
To begin his first update of the day, Jerry "Rello" Recco provided a cut from an excited John Sterling calling Alex Rodriguez's first home run last night against the Rays in the 4th inning.
There is just no pleasing some people -- and Craig happens to be one of them.
Alex Rodriguez homered twice, Jorge Posada had two hits and the New York Yankees stopped a six-game losing streak with a 6-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night.
Through 39 games the Yankees have been nothing but pure comedy. And if I was to cast an epic for the big screen, I would draw my inspiration from three classic baseball movies.
Once upon a time, whether you liked him or not, George Steinbrenner was the sheriff of the New York Yankees. Who runs the show now?
The Bombers hope their run against James Shields continues as the AL East-leading Rays attempt to sweep a two-game set and send New York to a seventh consecutive loss Tuesday night.
The Yankees can't buy a win right now. Mired in controversy, the bumbling Bombers dropped one to the Tampa Bay Rays, 6-5, for their sixth loss in a row.
It takes a lot for Girardi to realize it isn't working out, but somehow with the Yankees now 8-12 over their last 20 games, he still isn't convinced that it's time to shake things up.
Jorge Posada's days as a Yankee are numbered. The moment he told his manager he'd rather sit down than hit from the No. 9 hole sealed it. The real shame is that he's likely just the first in a long line headed out the door in New York.
Kevin Youkilis hit a tying three-run homer, David Ortiz had a go-ahead drive and the Boston Red Sox completed a sweep of the reeling New York Yankees with a 7-5 victory Sunday night to reach .500 for the first time this season.
The Yankees have lost six of nine and fell out of first place after Thursday night's loss for the first time since April 13. So, uh, bring on the Red Sox?

Freddy Garcia pitched effectively into the seventh inning, Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter provided the offense and the Yankees' bullpen made it stand up in a 3-1 victory over the Royals on Tuesday night.
A-Rod has batted .170 since April 23 and eight of the nine hits he has in that span were singles. The other was a double.
After Derek Jeter garnered all sorts of attention yesterday for his two home run performance against the Rangers, the focus quickly shifted to the struggles of Alex Rodriguez and Craig doesn't like it one little bit.
The Royals are off to a solid start to the season, but that's due mostly to their major league-high 15 home victories. Improving their major league-worst road record might prove difficult in a matchup with the Yankees.
The Rangers are trying to figure out how to get things back on track after a 12-5 loss Sunday. Though so are the Yankees, who despite yesterday's win, have stumbled and bumbled in the field and on the basepaths since the calendar switched to May.
