Mark Teixeira (inflamed bronchial airways) is back in the Yankees' starting lineup Monday. Interestingly, he's starting out of the seventh spot for the first time since his rookie season in 2003. Teixeira was able to pinch hit in the ninth inning of Sunday's loss. The 32-year-old first baseman told reporters this weekend that he is resigned to the fact that he's going to have to play through some discomfort.
