After nearly a week of waiting, the Yankees are back on television today. They have not played a televised game since Monday — Tuesday’s game was supposed to be televised, but it was rained out — and our reward for going this long without the Yankees is a pair of televised split squad contests today. Half the team stayed in Tampa to play the Tigers and the other half made the half-hour bus trip to take on the Blue Jays in Dunedin.
Most of the regulars are staying in Tampa (duh). We’re entering the second week of spring games now and that means the veteran relievers are beginning to make their way into games.
