Stars From the Tampa Series:

AJ Burnett:
Took a no-hitter into the seventh. Up until the 7th inning didn't even have a hard hit ball against him. Many people doubted the Yanks signing this guy. But now it looks like he's the steal of the off-season. He's pitching like an Ace.

Nick Swisher:
Even if if he didn't hit .360 with 2 HR, a 2B, 4 rs, and 2 rbi, he would have made this list for being the only Yankee relief pitcher on Monday to not give up a run.

Derek Jeter:
After getting only 1 hit in the KC series and going hitless in the first game in Tampa, The Capt. broke out in a big way going 5 for 9 with a HR, a 2B and 4 rbi in games 2 & 3. His single in the 8th inning yesterday brought home the winning run. Reports of his demise have been greatly exaggerated.

Brian Bruney:
Faced 5 batters. Struck them all out. Threw 18 pitches, 16 for strikes. I think we've found the bridge to Mo.

Honorable Mention:
Andy Pettitte, Robinson Cano, Brett Gardner.
