Encouraging to see a couple of young starters like Cecil and Romero do as well against that Yankee lineup as they did. Seems like in years past unless it was Halladay or AJ Burnett going against the Yankees the starter was 30-70 in getting past the 4th inning. We saw it earlier in the year when Morrow and Eveland got rocked pretty good by the Red Sox. But hopefully this last series with Tampa combined with these first couple starts against the Yankees is a sign that the starters are getting the confidence that they can go against any team in the bigs.

Todays start for Morrow should shed some light as he'll be trying for his second consecutive strong start against a good team. Really it would be his third as the one against Anaheim should have only yielded 1 earned run as Encarnacion should have been dinged for an error on what was an easy double play ball.
