Thre is a distinct worry in Yankee land that Tex is done for the season

[CaliCuse]

Who knows what action will be required to fix one of the most difficult areas of the body to recover from injury. I have said before this that a completely healed and pain free Tex is unlikely for this season.When you consider the strain on hands in baseball its hardly a surprise or shock. I still think that Jeter at first base is a way to go. Less strain on him and he can make all the plays.

Tex very well may require surgery. But he will be back regularly at first at some point this season or next. Forget about ever seeing Jeter at first. If he's to be moved off shortstop, it will be to third base and/or DH.
