TAMPA, Fla. Kånken Ryggsäck Stor . -- Joe Girardi found out about Derek Jeters retirement announcement the same way almost everyone else did: when the New York Yankees captain posted a letter to the world on his Facebook page this week. Girardi left snowy New York on Friday and arrived at spring training for his seventh year as Yankees manager, and he spent the first eight minutes of his 20-minute opening news conference discussing Jeters decision to retire after this season. "I think we were probably all a little bit taken aback by it," Girardi said. "Youre never sure how someones going to do it, but I had no inkling that thats what he was thinking." After missing the playoffs for just the second time in 19 years, the Yankees were back in business when pitchers and catchers reported ahead of Saturdays opening workout. Alex Rodriguezs locker was empty following his season-long suspension. Masahiro Tanaka inherited Mariano Riveras locker and Shawn Kelley got Andy Pettittes stall. Scott Sizemore, attending camp on a minor league contract, was assigned Robinson Canos jersey No. 24. Position players report next Wednesday, when Jeter holds a news conference at Steinbrenner Field to explain his decision. Girardi has exchanged texts with the 39-year-old shortstop but has not spoken with him. "This is going to be a guy thats hard to replace in your clubhouse and on your club," he said. "Its the nature of the business where people age and they move on and they go and do different things in their life, and in our life its a little bit quicker than some of the other working people of this world." Jeter was limited to 17 games last year after fracturing his left ankle in the 2012 playoffs and breaking it again last spring during his rehabilitation. Girardi said Jeter always told him "I feel great," but that he could sense frustration. After working out Friday with Brian Roberts at the Yankees minor league complex, Jeter demurred discussing his decision. "It makes no sense to do it here and then do it again over there, so Ill do it all over there one time," he said. And so now Jeter will go on a valedictory tour, much like Mariano Rivera did last year. Jeter is not the type to call attention to himself, making his public announcement before spring training all the more surprising. "It could have been just watching how Mo did it, and how much fun everyone seemed to have with it with Mo," Girardi said. "He might have said, you know, its a pretty good way to go out." Jeter has won five World Series titles with the Yankees but none since 2009, and his final lap of the major leagues figures to set the theme as New York tries for title No. 28. His teammates looked forward to speaking with him after he reports. "Not really surprised, saddened I guess that hes not going to be around," ace pitcher CC Sabathia said. "You want a guy like that to play forever." Having witnessed Chipper Jones final season with the Atlanta Braves in 2012, new Yankees catcher Brian McCann is looking forward to Jeters last go-round. "Hes been the face of baseball since he broke in," McCann said. "I went through it with one Hall of Famer. Im going to go through it with another." David Robertson, inheriting the closers role from Rivera, hadnt thought Jeter would make his plans known before the seasons end. "But Im really glad he did," he said. "I think its going to give the fans a chance to come out this year and see him in his final season in pinstripes." Robertsons new job is one of many changes for the Yankees, who spent $471 million on free agents, including a $20 million payment to Tanakas old club in Japan. McCann and outfielders Jacoby Ellsbury and Carlos Beltran are among the many newcomers, and first baseman Mark Teixeira is returning from a wrist injury that sidelined him most of last season. Cano -- the Yankees top hitter -- left for a $240 million, 10-year deal with Seattle. Girardi predicted for the April 1 opener at Houston that Yankees players at every position other than pitcher will be different from opening day last year. The only time thats happened in franchise history was 1947, according to STATS. "I think it is probably the biggest transition Ive been through," Girardi said. "I need to learn a lot of new faces fairly quickly." Kånken Mini Ryggsäck Rosa .S. international midfielder Michael Bradley is complete.

They also traded punches with the Ducks in several fights and numerous scrums, leading to 165 combined penalty minutes and the team togetherness that still seems to result from old-time hockey fisticuffs.Its nice to see guys step up for one another, Vlasic said. Guys love it. Doesnt matter who it is when guys step up and get in somebodys face and fight.Antti Niemi made 33 saves as San Jose rebounded aggressively from an embarrassing home loss to lowly Buffalo on Saturday, taking a 3-0 lead after two dominant periods. The third turned into a prolonged brawl featuring 127 penalty minutes and ending with Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry in the Ducks dressing room.Thats hockey, I guess, said San Joses Adam Burish, who got a misconduct penalty for scrapping with Nate Thompson with 6:04 to play. Its a rivalry. Its two good teams that dont like each other, two elite teams, and those things can happen.Patrick Marleau and Logan Couture had two assists apiece for the Sharks.Niemi believes a bruising victory can bring a team together: I think for sure. I hope thats what it does. I think thats what it should do.Matt Beleskey scored for the Western Conference-leading Ducks, who hadnt lost since opening night on Oct. 9.Frederik Andersen stopped 33 shots, but his 10-start winning streak ended as Anaheim wrapped up a five-game homestand in unimpressive fashion.The whole game was pretty deflating forr us, said Getzlaf, who got sent off after fighting James Sheppard with 3:06 to play. Fjällräven Kånken Outlet. Weve been playing pretty good hockey as of late, and youre going to play one of these kinds of games once in a while. It just (stinks) that it has to be against these guys.Although the Ducks are off to another strong start, they couldnt match last October. Anaheim won its first eight home games last season and went 20-0-2 before its first regulation defeat in late January.Andersen also wasnt exceptional in his first loss since March 29 last season, yielding two first-period goals and failing to stop Vlasics unassuming backhand in the second. The Danish netminder had been 6-0 this season with a 1.32 goals-against average, becoming the first goalie in NHL history to win 26 of his first 31 decisions.We werent ready from the beginning, Andersen said. They lost last night, so they came out strong, and we werent ready for that. Thats just not good enough. We got the two points the last seven games, but I think we started thinking it was probably a little bit too easy.Shortly after Perry and Justin Braun left with misconducts in the third period, a multiplayer brawl broke out in the corner. The officials ruled that San Joses John Scott left the bench to engage, possibly earning a suspension in a fight that ended with Andersen pulling players off the pile.I dont know how they came up with that, but that was a mistake, San Jose Coach Todd McLellan said, asserting Scott was on the ice legally.Beleskey ended Niemis shutout bid with 5:07 to play.NOTES: Before the game, Anaheim reassigned forward Chris Wagner to its AHL affiliate in Norfolk.
