They added a bat. Too bad it's 33-year old .218-hitting Richie Sexson. Seriously though, Sexson will become the only Yankee with a .300+ clip against lefties this season and should provide even a minor boost over Wilson Betemit.<br /><br />The Yankees will only have to pay Sexson the pro-rated minimum of $161,000. So in the end, the worst thing that will come out of this will be a little lost loose change out of the Steinbrenner family's pocket.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">10:49 PM:</span> Alfredo Aceves' line from Scranton today:<br />4IP 2H 0R 0ER 0BB 5K<br /><br />Update coming later with the matchups for the Oakland series.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/528927099200674498-3145659852530068670?l=anonymousyankee.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Anonymous Yankeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01572289246850927094noreply@blogger.com13
