Gordon's career over; Matsui demoted

The latest news coming out of the New York Yankees organization:

--> It's official. Tom "Flash" Gordon's baseball career is over. The 36-year-old reliever tore a back muscle in the Thursday, April 29 contest against Oakland. Specialists have said Gordon will never pitch again due to the severity of the injury.

Gordon's career ends with a 114-108 record. He was 1-1 this season. Adrian Hernandez and Alex Graman have been promoted from AAA Columbus to fill the void. Hernandez was 1-3 in Columbus. Graman was 3-1...

--> On April 23, the Yankees made a surprise move, sending outfielder Hideki Matsui down to AAA. 1B Tony Clark moved onto the active roster... Matsui was hitting .214 with three home runs...

Editor's note: Wow, the boss made a strange move there...
