Veras coughs up another homer: The Sports Xchange notes that Jose Veras had yielded just one run in his last 16 appearances, but he gave up a couple of big ones Thursday night. Veras took the loss for the Yankees when he handed back the lead -- and ultimately the game -- to Pittsburgh on a two-run homer by Nate McLouth. (Updated 07/11/2008).
Injury Report
No information available at this time (Updated 8/8/08).
Fantasy Analysis
Of the 10 earned runs Veras has given up this season, seven have come on long balls. He's been pitching in late-inning situations for the Yankees, but isn't the team's setup man and won't be in line for as many holds as Kyle Farnsworth for now. (Updated 07/11/2008).
