Pregame concerns: Silva lost to the Yankees on May 4. In three innings, he gave up eight earned runs and 11 hits. Cabrera and Cano hit back-to-back home runs in the six-run third inning in that game. In three career starts at Yankee Stadium, Silva is 0-3 with a 12.41 ERA. ... Mussina defeated the Mariners on May 3, pitching six innings and allowing only one earned run. He is 5-1 in his last six starts. ... Joba Chamberlain should pitch two or three innings this afternoon.
