Yankees reliever Kyle Farnsworth returned from his one-game suspension Saturday afternoon at Detroit and pitched a scoreless inning of relief. Although he did allow one of the runners he inherited to score, he stranded runners on second after getting into that situation with only one out. He has not allowed an earned run in four outings.

Fantasy Analysis
Farnsworth has been pitching well of late and the Yankees have been using him in the seventh inning in an effort to build a bridge to Mariano Rivera with he and Joba Chamberlain handling the late inning duties. That means Farnsworth could be in line for some cheap holds. (Updated 05/10/2008).
On Friday, Farnsworth served his one-game suspension for throwing a ball behind the neck of Boston Red Sox slugger Manny Ramirez on April 17. (Updated 05/13/2008)
