08:04 AM ET 03.06 | The "pop" Mark Teixeira felt on Tuesday, unfortunately, had nothing to do with his hitting of a baseball. The Yankees rightfully are concerned that [Teixeira's] right wrist strain will cost the first baseman more than the World Baseball Classic. Speaking during [Tuesday] night's 2-0 loss to the Braves at George M. Steinbrenner Field, general manager Brian Cashman didn't paint an optimistic canvas. Teixeira felt a pop during a tee drill before Team USA faced the White Sox in an Arizona exhibition game. An MRI exam showed a strain, but Cashman and manager Joe Girardi are leery the ramifications could be worse than the original diagnosis.

I just do not want to see Cashman bring in some stop gap vet that you are stuck with for the next four years....Suck it up this year, unload the contracts you can next year and start over....

Put at Youk at 1B till Tex is ready. That's his best position anyway.

If I am a glove manufacturer, I do not allow Nunez to use my product in a game. Bad advertising. They are trying to fix his throwing. Jeesh, don't you have to catch the ball first?

everything about WBC it was been expected just nobody knew what to expect or when to expected/texeira and many more players would be facing tough injuries/suddenly therre is a injury rash much alike prone-injury player/but shouldn't every team had have protected their investments???perhaps new york should blame the rats from the bronx and just move on,,,,
