The Good
The Yankees took 2 of 3 over the weekend effectively splitting the series with Chicago. Hughes and Kuroda stepped up in their starts with Kuroda striking out 11 in a 7 inning shut out. Hughes went 8 innings allowing just 2 runs. Granderson, Cano, Dewayne Wise, and Eric Chavez all hit homeruns. Also, Dewayne Wise pitched in the final inning of Friday nights trouncing, and was the best pitcher of that game!
The Bad
After clawing his way up above the .200 mark for batting average, Russell Martin finished the series hitting .186. That's rough.
The Ugly
Turns out we may be missing Pettitte more than we hoped. Adam Warren's debut lasted all of 2.1 innings, where he allowed 6 runs. Later on in the game, Corey Wade gave up another 6 runs. David Phelps releived Warren and went just over 3 innings, and gave up a couple runs. It looks like he'll be getting the next start.
Mo Money Mo Healthy Babies
What can we say? The Yankees clearly care about the babies. 6 homeruns this weekend means 12 more dollars for the Children's Health Fund.

There was some kind of spat between Floyd and Pierzynski yesterday. Did RJG get any info on that?
