NEW YORK -- OK, Mets fans, your turn to mock.
Starting left-hander J.A. Happ, one of the Yankees' prize trade-deadline acquisitions, was sent home Tuesday after contracting hand, foot and mouth disease, a virus.
Happ could miss Saturday's scheduled start against the first-place Red Sox at Fenway Park. The Yankees, six games behind the Red Sox in the A.L. East, open a four-game series in Boston on Thursday.
