Jhonny on the Spot

Who invented that spelling anyway? Mike Ashmore has more on the Yankees acquisition, Jhonny Nunez.

- Nunez was the 25th best prospect in the Nationals organization coming into the season.

- He was the 8th best right-handed starter in the organization, behind such pitchers as Collin Balester, Tyler Clippard, Jordan Zimmermann, Shairon Martis and Colt Willems.

- He was acquired by the Nats from the Dodgers in a trade for Marlon Anderson.

- He throws a 94 MPH fastball, a slider and a changeup.

"Jhonny" made us think of this 80's Don Henley song...
