The Bombers were a distant second at $199 million, ending their streak of six straight openers above the $200 million mark.

It appears that the Japanese phenom will get the ball in the fourth game of the season, when the Bombers take on the American League East-rival Blue Jays in Toronto.
While the Yankees have yet to make anything official concerning the back end of their rotation, it's looking more and more like Michael Pineda has pitched his way into the fifth spot.
