With the World Baseball Classic wrapping up, spring training games are the only thing that stand between us and the long-awaited regular season. As everyone makes some final tweaks to prepare for real games, the Yankees send a split-squad to Sarasota to take on the division rival Orioles, who are at or near full strength.
The Yanks send one of their top 10 prospects (depending on who you ask), Yoendrys Gómez, to the mound Friday evening against Baltimore. The right-hander has done a nice job this spring, pitching in three games thus far, allowing just one run and striking out eight in as many innings.
