Monday in Florida

On top of the Chan Ho Park signing, there's plenty of news to report from Yankees camp. Spend some quality time with the links.

A lot of stories today on the relationship between A.J. Burnett and Jorge Posada. There was some tension there last season, but now they are excited about possibly working together. LoHud has an interview with Burnett, complete with audio. Bombers Beat caught a great picture of the two players shaking hands after today's bullpen, along with some notes on the session. It seems both players are determined to make it work. MLB.com picked up the story as well.

The Yanks look back on what Johnny Damon meant to the team and wish him well with his new squad.

John Harper of the Daily News takes a close look at former first round pick Andrew Brackman. The right-hander is looking sharp in camp and the Yankees are hoping he finally lives up to his potential.

Jesus Montero, everyone's favorite prospect, put on a show during batting practice today. Rumor has it that he hit a home run off of the top of the scoreboard in left field, displaying some serious power.

Now that the bullpen is effectively crowded, Joe Girardi weighs in on what he expects from the pitchers and reveals that he expects to carry 12 on the roster. That link comes with audio of the talk with the manager, he covers a whole range of subjects.

The Daily News has a short piece on the competition for the fifth spot in the rotation. Apparently, there are other names involved besides Joba Chamberlain and Phil Hughes. You could've fooled me.

Kevin Long has the arduous task of attempting to correct Curtis Granderson's swing against lefties. If anyone could do it, Long is the guy.

Mike Bauman of MLB.com takes notice of just how quiet it's been around Yankees camp this spring. Not having a steroid scandal to deal with will do that. Coming off a World Series victory probably helps too. It seems the team is enjoying the relaxed environment right now, things will pick up soon enough.

Lastly, the always informative LoHud notes from Monday.
