Jorge Posada is looking good andย heโ€™s showing some zip on his throws.His throwing session from 220 feet impressed Tony Pena. โ€œIt feels good,โ€ Posada said of the hinge that has been pain-free. โ€œToday was good.โ€

CC missed aย live batting-practice session and left camp with the flu.โ€œHe said he wanted to throw his BP, and he ended up throwing up again,โ€ Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. โ€œHe just said, โ€˜Iโ€™ll wait until tomorrow.โ€™โ€

Robbie Cano says that he would work with Presinal again.ย โ€Heโ€™s great about conditioning guys. I can tell you that myself, last year I was healthy all season,โ€ Cano said. โ€œTo be honest, I donโ€™t care what happened with him in the past...If I had to go back and work with him if Iโ€™m hurt, Iโ€™d go back.โ€
