Clarke Schmidt Scratched

Clarke Schmidt Scratched

New York -- As I am getting to the train station to head to the BX this morning, The Yankees release the lineup and Clarke Schmidt was scratched from his scheduled start.

When asked by reportes, Schmidt said that it is "left flank soreness", that he wanted to pitch, but the Yankees are pushing him back to Tuesday vs. San Diego. (the conspiracy theorist in me believes there is more to this decision).

Ryan Yarbrough will make the start against his former team, the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday.
