Ex-MLB pitcher tells WFAN it's "not a big deal" that Yankees starter Michael Pineda appeared to have a foreign substance on his pitching hand against the Red Sox.
David Ortiz looked at a cell phone photograph of Michael Pineda's right hand, one with a brown substance smeared across the palm. Pine tar or dirt? It may never be clear.
Perhaps the game isn't too big for Yangervis Solarte. He has begun to prove that he's worthy of manning the patch of infield where A-Rod once strode, and not in a backup role, either.
Craig and Robert Wuhl discussed the questionable practices of Michael Pineda and wondered: Why didn't the Red Sox make a bigger stink?
"I'm very entrenched with the Yankees. My face and my career is more so shaded with the Yankees than it even is with Oakland. And I played in Oakland for nine years."
"Am I (supposed) to go home and say I faced Tanaka tonight? Just go throw a party that I faced Tanaka? It's another pitcher. Another pitcher in the rotation. Nothing special to me."
Jacoby Ellsbury will experience the Yankees-BoSox rivalry from a whole new perspective when he takes on his former team Thursday night.

Craig "the lifelong Mets fan" was in the Bronx on Monday afternoon for the Yankees' home opener. And he left Yankee Stadium a little upset...
Craig was there at the Stadium and was thrilled with the outcome, while Boomer sounded as if he is growing more and more annoyed with the nonstop Jeter fawning.
Robertson had an MRI earlier in the day that revealed the injury. He has posted two saves this season and has allowed one hit in three scoreless innings.
Derek Jeter gave Yangervis Solarte some assistance with Yankee Stadium tradition, then the rookie helped make the captain a winner in his final home opener Monday as New York beat the Baltimore Orioles 4-2.
