Morning Bits: Cano’s hit streak at 22 games, Time for Cashman to shop?, Gardner out for the year

Good morning all.  Well the team had to lose eventually.   Another hit for Cano thought to extend his hitting streak and David Phelps looked very good coming out of the bullpen.  Tonight is another late start 10:05PM to be exact.  On the mound is Nova vs Milone.

Enjoy the weekend and let’s start of today with some links….

— Wallace Matthews of ESPN NY asks if it’s time for Cashman to go shopping.

— One of my favorite articles is always Katie Sharp of ESPN NY with the Yankeemetrics.  This one was for the Toronto series.

— David Waldstein of the New York Times has the story on Gardner getting surgery and probably missing the rest of the year.

— Jeff Bradley of The Star Ledger takes a look how it has been tough for the AAA Yankees without a home this year.

— Christopher Connors of The Bleacher Report has an article about how the Yankees keep rolling through the season even with all the injuries.

— Evan Drellich of mlb.com has the story of Cano extending his hitting streak to 22 games and other tidbits on the Yankees.

Morning Bits/Minor Notes: Cashman talking trades, RISP, Pineda, Aardsma

Good morning all.  Yankees got a loss last night but doesn’t look so bad after 10 wins in a row.  They did have several chances to win the game last night which did make it hard but oh well.   Today is a day game starting at 1:05.  Hanson vs. Hughes.

Enjoy the game and the day.   Now let’s get to the links…..

— Cashman had a lot of interesting things to say in a radio interview yesterday about Soriano and the trade deadline.  Johnette Howard from ESPNNY has all the details.

— Wallace Matthews of ESPNNY reports that Swisher was 2-2 with RISP while the rest of the Yankees were a dreadful 0-9.

— Hughes looks to stay hot in the rubber game match today reports Teddy Cahill of MLB.com.

— Steven Miller of MLB.com reports that Pineda visited with the Yankees and is progressing with his rehab.

— The other day Aardsma tossed a scoreless inning in his first rehab start. I said it before and I will say it again that that signing could be huge for the Yankees.

— Bob Raissman of The New York Daily News writes that Yankees broadcaster Suzyn Waldman is standing by Roger Clemens.

— Staten Island Yankees took the loss last night 4-1.

— Gulf Coast Yankees lost as well 5-4.  Slade Heathcott (who you can read our interview with him from earlier this year right here)  went 2-2 with 2 doubles and an RBI.   I really hope he can finish strong with a healthy rest of the year.

— Tampa Yankees won 4-2. JR Murphy had 2 hits (double, 2-Run homer).  Rob Segedin and Kyle Roller each had a pair of hits as well.

— Trenton won 3-2. Luke Murton had 3 hits one which was a solo homer.  Mikey O’Brien went 6 strong innings only giving up one run.

— Empire State Yankees lost 4-2.  Only 4 hits for the team.  One of which was by Ronnier Mustelier who is batting .316.
