SAN DIEGO -- With CC Sabathia being pushed back a day, the Yankees have recalled right-hander Chad Green from Triple-A Scranton-Wilkes-Barre of the International League to start Sundays series finale against the Padres at Petco Park.This will be the 25-year-old Greens third trip to the major league this season. The first visit didnt go so well.And the pressure will be on. The Yankees need a win Sunday afternoon to avoid being swept by the Padres. But history is on the Yankees side.The Padres are 6-20 in day games this season, including a 2-8 record in day games at Petco Park. They are also 3-23 in the last games of a series and 2-10 on Sundays.As for Green, he made his major league debut on May 14 in a spot start at Arizona and allowed six runs (four earned) on eight hits in four innings. Two of the hits were homers.I think Green will be less nervous than in his last start, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said Saturday while discussing the matchup of Green (0-1, 7.20 earned run average) against Padres right-hander Andrew Cashner (3-5, 4.75 ERA), who is coming off the 15-day disabled list due to a neck strain.I hope so, Girardi continued in his discussion of Green. I think that any time guys get called up at an early age, the first time they are nervous. The second time they are less nervous. That is just the way it goes.Girardi said Green has pitched well at Triple-A. In fact, Green earlier this week was named to the International League team for the Triple-A All-Star Game. He is 6-6 in 14 starts for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre with a 1.54 ERA. He leads the IL in ERA.Cashner, meanwhile, will be making his first appearance since June 10, when he left after facing one hitter at Coors Field in Denver. He went on the disabled list the following day for the second time this season. Cashner was also out from May 9 to May 24 with a left hamstring strain suffered when he unsuccessfully tried to score from first on a double.This has been a strange year, said Cashner, who has allowed one earned run over nine innings in two previous games (one start) against the Yankees.Cashner missed 22 days with his neck strain. He has missed a total of six starts this season.In four starts between his two trips to the disabled list -- each for issues unrelated to his right arm -- Casher was 1-2 with a 4.42 ERA. His ERA is currently as low as it has been since April 22.I thought Cash was throwing a lot better before his neck became an issue, Padres manager Andy Green said recently. His stuff was sharper and his command was better. He looked sharp in his rehab start earlier this week (with Class A Lake Elsinore) so were hopeful hes ready to move forward.There are indications that Cashners neck soreness could have been an issue weeks before the sprain forced him to the sideline.Nike Shoes Outlet .

She never left her confidence and her drive. Had she given up, she wouldnt have won. The person who fights to the last, wins. She was outstanding. Sushil said, It is like a service she has done the country because the people of India were just pining for a medal.What was even more remarkable about Sakshis medal-winning performance was the fact that Rio happened to be her first Olympic Games. Sushil, who won his first Olympic medal in his second Olympics in Beijing 2008, said that a debut Olympic medal was not impossible. First Olympics or last doesnt make a difference. What matters is how are you performing? How are you winning? How did youu lose? That is what is important.dddddddddddd The idea that you will win a medal only in your second or third Olympics is nothing. What matters is your focus and the work you put in. Saskhis focus has been entirely on her wrestling and she has given her life to it. Who does the maximum work gets the medal.India has, following Sakshis bronze, now won three repechage medals in wrestling at the Olympics. It was to begin with Sushils Beijing bronze, the tipping point for Indian wrestling. The repechage rounds Sushil said, tend to give a wrestler a certain clarity of purpose. Once you miss an opportunity and you are given another, then it is like you get a new understanding of your situation. The repechage becomes he said, your only chance.You have got this opportunity, put your whole self into it. It is why you become filled with energy and purpose. Because you know that either you will achieve what you have worked so long for or will set yourself back again. ' ' '
