Quick Hit: Two More Days Rest For Teixeira

Yesterday we were excited to report that the decision whether to place Mark Teixeira on the disabled list or not would come yesterday, and it did. The decision was not the one anyone really wanted to hear asking for more patience and at least two more days for Teixeira. I guess technically the decision did come and the decision was to keep him off the DL, for now, but really?

We were told that Teixeira would sit out three to four games with his back, now it's likely seven. When does it stop and what are the Yankees going to do about it? We can't run with a two player bench for much longer and we seemingly cannot rely on Mark Teixeira to stay healthy either.

Brian Cashman, you're up.
