Yankees starter contender Bryan Mitchell feeling pressure, struggles | Rapid reaction
TAMPA -- The pressure of fighting for one of those two open spots in the Yankees' starting rotation got the better of Bryan Mitchell on Sunday.

Mitchell gave up six hits, walked three and struck out three on a day in which his Grapefruit League ERA shot up from 3.86 to 4.57.
