04/25: Bruney OUT for the YEAR
Posted by: James
Ol' Reliable Pete A checks in with the following:
Sucks about Bruney - he seemed to have had it together this year though I would be remiss if I didn't point out that he was lights out for the first two months last year too. Then he imploded. Also, I'm kinda glad that Ohlendorf was sent down. He was starting to scare me over the course of his last 3-4 appearances. Let him get back on track in the minors. Chris Britton and Jon Albaladejo will get their chances...though Edwar is probably wondering when his time will come. I expect that Shelley will be coming up soon enough when the Yankees drop Chad Moeller.
Update: It looks like Moeller was DFA'd for Britton so I guess Ohlendorf is still on the roster.
Bad news for Brian Bruney. He has a torn ligament in his foot that will require surgery and is likely out for the season. More on this later but he has a lis franc injury. … RHPs Chris Britton and Jon Albaladejo are here and available. … No word on the second move but it seems likely Ross Ohlendorf will be sent down.
