But how is Gordon?

2.79 era so far this season.

I think Ed's talking about the fact that Gordon was taken out of today's game after taking a grounder off of his pitching hand (index finger).

I haven't seen anything that gives any details about whether Gordon's injury was serious.

Johnson looked great today, though. He dominated perhaps the best lineup in MLB.

oh...i didn't see that.
had company over so i missed the last few innings.

Gordon's OK.

From mlb.com:

QuoteGordon OK: Tom Gordon avoided injury when he was hit on his right index finger by a batted ball in the eighth inning on Saturday, but Torre said he would try to give the right-hander the day off, anyway.

"His finger is a little sore," the manager said. "There's nothing wrong with it, but I'll probably try to stay away [from playing him]."

2/3 taken by Cardinals. $:-\$

Phillies took 2/3 in both series.

Found this in Philly.com this morning...

http://www.philly.com/mld/philly/sports/baseball/11888953.htm

Yanks are announcing a new stadium to be completed in time for the 2009 season today.

Good. The one they play in now is a shteinhole.

here's the latest:
the second baseman will be switching from left field to center field to platoon with bernie williams so matsui can return to left.

also, steve phillips was on espn radio this morning & said that IF the yanks are 10+ games out by mid-july, they should consider trading matsui, shef, bernie, & womack for prospects. i actually agree...time to get younger & a couple of those guys are in the last year of their deals.
