TAMPA - Just drove over the Causeway to George M. Steinbrenner Field from Clearwater where the Phillies will take on the annoying (and pretentious) Yankees this afternoon. Clearly the biggest story here - after Cole Hamels, of course - is Kyle Kendrick taking the mound in what could be a make-or-break outing.
But back to the Yankees for a minute ... they certainly have a right to strut the way they do because they almost made the playoffs last year.
Still, the WFC Phillies must have breathed a sigh of relief this morning when Hamels told us that his left forearm trouble is something that occurs every year and might clear up with a shot and/or some rest.
Meanwhile, Hamels says he's going to feel good about getting out of Florida for a few days.
Stay tuned to CSNPhilly.com because we will be updating the main stories over there throughout the day.
