I think the fact that with a replacement-level-or-worse 5th starter, not having a long-reliever is facepalm-worthy. If Wellemeyer doesn’t put it together consistently, Martinez should be given a spot-start, at least.

Did we go over this yet?

Pretty sure this is the result of the Giants checking him out before he signed with the Yankees

Yankees designated hitter Nick Johnson is unlikely to return to action before the first week of June, and in fact may not play again before August.

According to GM Brian Cashman, Johnson’s sore right wrist may require surgery to remove inflamed tissue, which would keep him out of action another four to six weeks on top of the month he already is expected to miss.

OT: Dunno if this caught anyone's eye, but Bud Black on Panda:
•The nickname of Giants third baseman Pablo Sandoval, not the leanest of players and a bit of a character, is "Kung-Fu Panda." The way he rounded the bases on his Tuesday night triple reminded Padres manager Bud Black of a different kind of bear.

Sandoval at full gallop, said Black, "was like a grizzly going after a salmon on the Kenai (River in Alaska)."
