Emerald City Preview

Yankees vs. Seattle

The Yankees and Mariners split a 4 game series that ran last weekend into Monday. The M's took the bookends, with the Yankees taking Saturday and Sunday.

Pitching Match Ups

Tonight
- Darrell Rasner vs. Jarrod Washburn
A rematch of last Sunday's 5-0 Yankees win. With Lou Piniella no longer at the helm, there is less of a likelihood of last Sunday's blad blood carrying over into this series.

Saturday - Matt DeSalvo vs. Miguel Batista
A rematch of Monday's 3-2 Mariners come from behind win. Hopefully Gerry Davis isn't on the umpiring crew. Who is the idiot that scheduled this for 10:00 EDT on a Saturday?

Sunday - Andy Pettitte vs. Horacia Ramirez
Ramirez came over from the Braves for Rafael Soriano this past winter. He beat the Yankees the only time he faced them (8 IP 1 unearned run) in June, '06.

Jason Giambi is expected back in the lineup tonight, but Johnny Damon will most likely sit out with his sore right calf.
