The Yankees are "seriously" considering promoting Ian Kennedy for Tuesday's start against the Orioles at Yankee Stadium.
Kennedy, their No. 1 pick in last year's draft, is a possible candidate to make his major-league debut when the Yankees need a starter to fill in for Roger Clemens.
The plan with Kennedy hinges on what happens with reliever Jeff Karstens this weekend.
If he was needed in relief last night or today, Kennedy will get the call.
Manager Joe Torre said Roger Clemens suspension likely will not start again until Saturday against Detroit assuming the rotation holds.
Clemens last pitched Tuesday, but his 45-year-old body probably could use the extra rest.
