The Yankees wrapped up their Spring Training today with a defeat to the poverty Nationals. It was Nestor Cortes’ final start before the regular season, and the People’s Ace was as solid as can be. It was a “bubble wrap” game for a number of the regulars, where they saw an AB and then were promptly taken out of the game to avoid injury.
