The Yankees first Spring Training game is Tuesday when they travel to take on the Phillies. Adam Warren gets the first chance to showcase that he deserves a rotation spot as he takes the mound first for the Yankees. Warren is vying for the fifth starting spot which is vacant until Ivan Nova comes back from Tommy John surgery in the summer.
Adam Warren will start exhibition opener Tue, Nathan Eovaldi Wed, Esmil Rogers Thur. No word yet on whether ARod will be ready to play Tue.

Fans will get to see newly acquired Nathan Eovaldi on Wednesday at George M. Steinbrenner Field. Eovaldi was acquired from the Miami Marlins along with Garrett Jones this off-season. He will be followed by Esmil Rogers on Thursday. Rogers figures to be a long reliever for the Yankees this upcoming season. There is still no word on whether Alex Rodriguez will play in the first spring game.
