Spring Training 3/12/12

Our first night game this spring and it is against the Houston Lastros. Before we get into that let us get a injury update on David Robertson. Robertson played catch with no problems and pain today and was without a cast or a walking boot. He expects to be ready for opening day, barring any set backs, but does not know when he will be back on the mound this spring. He was seen walking today with no noticeable limp or injury so that is always a good sign.

Dan Burawa went for an MRI late last night and found out that he  tore an oblique muscle and is expecting to miss quite a bit of time. He has to be disappointed because he was making a strong impression this year at camp.   Austin Romine is set to take some dry swings in a few days and is on the way back from a back injury. He says that he is not feeling anything in his back but the Yankees want to slowly bring him along and build him up so the injury does not happen again like it did last season in Trenton.
