Brian Cashman is surprised by the defensive miscues that the New York Yankees have committed through the first nine games of the season.

"Our defensive mistakes have been shocking," the general manager said. "Our won-loss column has been affected by every aspect of the game. One night it's the defense, the next night it's the offense, then it's the base-running. It all depends on which game you're looking at. We have not played consistent baseball at all, in any facet, and that's why we're 3-6."

The Yankees are currently in last place in the American League East. They have committed 11 errors, the most in the Major Leagues.
