SAN DIEGO - Andrew Miller would have been happy to set up David Robertson with the Yankees. Now hell get a chance to take over as New Yorks closer.I would have absolutely zero qualms about him being in the mix, Miller said Monday before Robertson agreed to a $46 million, four-year contract with the Chicago White Sox. Honestly, I think hed make us better. Whatever it takes for us to win is what Im on board with.A 6-foot-7 left-hander who is 29, Miller agreed Friday to a $36 million, four-year contract and joins a bullpen that also includes All-Star Dellin Betances, Shawn Kelley and Adam Warren.Robertson saved 39 games in the first season after Mariano Riveras retirement, then left as a free agent after declining the Yankees $15.3 million qualifying offer. Miller or Betances figures to take over the ninth-inning role next season.Im pretty confident in myself. I think I can get three outs at any point in the game, wherever that may be, Miller said during a telephone call with New York reporters. Whatever it is, its fine with me. I want to win. I want to shake hands and high five at the end of the game. If have to get two outs in the sixth, theres value in that. Were starting to finally understand that theres outs in the game that may be more important than the last three outs in the game in the ninth inning.Miller told teams during negotiations that his exact role wouldnt be a factor in his decision.I have no ego and Im ready to fill whatever role is necessary or fits best for the team, he said. If Im handing the ball off to somebody, whoever that may be, I have no problem with that.Miller turned down a $40 million, four-year offer in favour of the New Yorks proposal. He lives in Tampa, Florida, where the Yankees hold spring training.Thats two months I get to spend at home that I wouldnt have otherwise, and thats one less move for my wife and my child to make, he said. So that certainly makes life easier. I dont know that thats the kind of thing that I can put a financial value on.Miller was 5-5 with a 2.02 ERA for Boston and Baltimore and held opponents to a .153 batting average this year. He averaged 14.87 strikeouts per nine innings, second in the major leagues behind Cincinnatis Aroldis Chapman (17.67) among pitchers who faced at least 50 batters.He made his big league debut at the original Yankee Stadium in August 2006, pitching a hitless eighth inning in Detroits 2-0 loss in the opener of a day-night doubleheader. Just 21 years old and only three months removed from college ball at North Carolina, Miller retired Melky Cabrera on a lineout to right, hit Craig Wilson with a pitch, got Johnny Damon to hit into a forceout and induced Derek Jeter to ground out.I think walking to that mound in that stadium is incredible, he said. Nothing could really compare to that old Yankee Stadium and how on top of you the upper deck was. ... To pitch against the Yankees, thats like doing something in the movies. Its hard to recreate or ask for, but its a pretty special experience. Wholesake Fake Air Jordan 1 . Joakim Nordstrom and Garret Ross also scored for Chicago and Corey Crawford made 30 saves.

Redskins coach Jay Gruden confirmed Wednesday the benching of Robert Griffin III, who had started the past three games after recovering from a dislocated ankle suffered in Week 2. Colts going to start this week, Gruden told reporters on a conference call Wednesday. Hes done some good things. I felt like he deserved a bit of a promotion. The Redskins have lost all three games since Griffins return, falling to 3-8. Griffin has been sacked 16 times in losses to Minnesota, Tampa Bay and San Francisco, and last Sunday against the 49ers completed 11-of-19 passes for just 106 yards with a lost fumble in the 17-13 setback. Im not putting the blame all on Robert, it seems that way when you make a change at that position, Gruden added. Robert has done some good things. I think he needs a little more time in this system and needs to take a step back and learn. Right now, I felt like Colt would give us a better chance this week.dddddddddddd McCoy led the Redskins to each of their last two victories. He replaced an ineffective Kirk Cousins in the second half of the Redskins Week 7 matchup against Tennessee and rallied the team to a 19-17 decision, then led the way in an overtime road upset of Dallas a week later. In his limited action, McCoy has connected on 36-of-42 throws for 427 yards with a touchdown and an interception. He finished 25-of-30 for 299 yards in the 20-17 win at Dallas in Week 8. Griffin has completed 69.7 percent of his passes for 869 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions in his five starts this season. He has also been sacked 20 times, and has run for 100 yards on 22 carries. Hes not happy, nor did I expect him to be, Gruden said when asked how Griffin reacted to the decision. Griffins future with the Redskins could also become a topic of consideration, as the team must decide during the offseason whether to exercise an option to extend his contract through 2016. ' ' '
