As others have said, #Yankees recalling RHP Chase Whitley @chasewhitley to start Thursday.

Breaking news out of Yankee land as Chase Whitley will get the start for the New York Yankees on Thursday in the finale of the Subway Series in place of CC Sabathia. Originally Joe Girardi wanted Alfredo Aceves to pitch the game but the need for him out of the bullpen eliminated those plans last night in New York. Whitley is not not he 40 man roster so a corresponding move will have to be made.If I were a betting man this either means bad news for Ichiro Suzuki's back, Carlos Beltran's elbow, or Bruce Billings who somehow still have a 40 man roster spot. The Yankees could designate Billings for assignment and either DL one of the outfielders, send down Zoilo Almonte, or send down a Preston Claiborne.
Stay tuned.
