With a hard-earned victory in their pockets, the New York Yankees look forward to a strong home stand with a special fan in attendance.
All is right in the world. The New York Yankees secured a game one victory over the Toronto Blue Jays. Masahiro Tanaka looked like an ace and Chase Headley (!) drove in a few runs.
Well, things are certainly looking up right now. And come their next game this afternoon, it looks like the Yankees found themselves a new fan.
I just heard on the #BlueJays broadcast that Trump might be attending tomorrow's Toronto/#Yankees game. Anxious to hear the crowd reaction.

That’s right, The leader of the free world will be taking on the coveted sport of baseball. Not sure if that is bad or good luck, but it has to mean something, right?
We’ll have to wait and see but the Yankees shouldn’t worry anyway. Trump will likely be tweeting the whole time.
With the most recent update on injuries, we’ll be seeing CC Sabathia back in action, as he’ll be activated from the disabled list and thrown right into the fray, starting today’s game.
Sabathia’s return will be accompanied by Adam Warren, who found himself on the DL with a sore trap muscle.
The Yankees plan to activate both CC Sabathia and Adam Warren from the disabled list tomorrow. Sabathia is starting vs. Toronto.

In more injury news, the Yankees may be sending Greg Bird off to surgery. Since hitting the DL and not improving, Bird has been down and out for quite some time.
But what’s wrong with him? Not even the doctors know, possibly making exploratory surgery an option for the lanky first baseman.
#Yankees GM Brian Cashman said that they could send Greg Bird for exploratory surgery to determine the cause of his pain.

No, it isn’t ideal. But if it can narrow down the pain, it might be worth it. We need some Birdman back in our lives.
So that’s all for today! Enjoy the holiday and always root on those New York Yankees!
