Rafael Soriano comes off DL for Yankees

Ah the predicament truly begins. Supposed to be setup man Rafael Soriano returns from the DL today to the 25 man Yankees’ big league roster. Steve Garrison was sent down to Double-A to make room for the pitcher. Now the question begins as to who will retain the setup spot and how things will be shared. David Robertson has been great for the Yanks and I think he will end up keeping the spot, especially given Soriano’s troubles even when he was hurt. But, of course the salary issue does sting a little. Manager Joe Girardi said that Soriano will be eased into things, but didn’t hint at what that means or if he is even sure what will happen at the setup position.
