Notes and News: Posada, A-Rod, Aceves

The Yankees called up Alfredo Aceves and optioned Anthony Claggett back to Scranton. Aceves will be taking on that long reliever role I would assume.

Jorge Posada is on the 15 day DL with a right hamstring strain. He was hurt yesterday on a slide in the 6th inning. Frakie Cervelli is being called up from double A to take his roster spot.

Alex Rodriguez homered twice today in a rehab game, going 3 for 6. He'll be up by mid-May at the latest.

Joba's mom was arrested for selling Meth. Stay strong our Savior. We know you're better than her.

Good post by PeteAbe at his blog. He talks about the controversy with the ump in yesterday's game and the Red Sox first base coach stealing signs (maybe he's friends with Bill Belichick). Also, interesting to hear that Derek Jeter has never been ejected from a game. What a class act.

Outside of the Yankee realm...

Jerry Crasnick's got an interesting piece on plate discipline.

Video on San Diego State's Stephen Strasburg. Nats' fans should be excited.
