New York Yankees will meet the Los Angeles Angels Watch Derek Jeter FREE Major League Baseball Live Streaming Online from MInute Maid Park Monday at 8:10 PM ET

The Yankees are in search of rotation help from within, and the next audition is being given to David Phelps.

The right-hander will try to turn things around for a struggling and banged-up staff Monday night in Los Angeles as the Yankees open a three-game series with the Angels.

The Yankees (16-14) have lost four of five with a 6.49 ERA and .342 opponents' batting average out of their starters after CC Sabathia allowed five runs in 3 2/3 innings of Sunday's 5-1 loss to Tampa Bay.

"We've got some things to work on," pitching coach Larry Rothschild said. "It can turn anytime and we're all thinking that it will."

The Angels (15-15) also had some pitching issues in their latest series, dropping two of three at home against Texas with their rotation allowing 14 earned runs in 14 2/3 innings.

Phelps (0-0, 3.86 ERA) has made nine appearances out of the bullpen this season, striking out 16 in 11 2/3 innings. In 23 career starts, he's 7-6 with a 4.39 ERA, and he's gone 0-1 with a 3.38 ERA in three career appearances against the Angels.

The greater concern might be Phelps' extended layoff. He hasn't pitched since April 23 because his first scheduled start Wednesday was postponed due to rain.

"He hasn't seen hitters in a while, which is always somewhat of a concern -- how he goes out there in that first inning and how sharp he is," manager Joe Girardi told the team's official website.

Derek Jeter will also be in the spotlight in his final regular-season series at Angel Stadium, but the shortstop is likely more concerned with getting his game together. Jeter went 0 for 4 Sunday and stranded four runners to complete a 3-5 homestand at 4 for 30 while going hitless in 13 at-bats.

"I concern myself with how I feel," Jeter said. "I feel good."

"Obviously he's one of the greatest hitters of all-time, a no-doubt Hall of Famer, the owner of many championships," Weaver told the team's official website. "He's spent 20 years in New York and I've never heard a bad thing about him. He's not only a great ballplayer, he's a very special person."
