The Yankees were defeated by the Orioles 14-5 today and this was obviously their worst loss of the season.

Ivan Nova started and he struggled right from the game by allowing three runs in the first inning. Things would get worse from there as he departed after allowing seven runs. This is his second start of the season and he hopes to forget this one.

The Yankee offense showed signs of life throughout the game, but when they got back into it, the Yankee pitching would give up more runs.

The Yankees hope to forget this game and move on to the finale tomorrow night.

Eduardo Nunez traded to Twins

The Yankees have announced that Eduardo Nunez has been traded to the Minnesota Twins for minor league left-hander Miguel Sulbaran.

Nunez was designated for assignment by the Yankees before the season started after Yangervis Solarte won the final spot on the Yankees roster.

Miguel Sulbaran is 21-10 with a 3.15 ERA in 55 career minor league games. He has split time between the Dodgers and Twins. Before being traded he was pitched for Class A Cedar Rapids in the Twins organization.

Yankees place David Robertson on 15-day DL

The Yankees have placed their closer, David Robertson, on the 15-day DL with a Grade 1 strain of his left groin strain.

Robertson first felt the injury against the Blue Jays on Sunday, in which he recorded his second save of the season. After about five or six pitches, he felt irritation in his left groin. Initially, he thought it would go away overnight, but notified the team Monday morning and was quickly sent for a MRI.

Shawn Kelley will likely close out ballgames for now on until Robertson makes recovers.
