    Re: The 2009 New York Yankees

    Joba is a starter but if he keeps throwing 100 pitches in four innings, then his value is moot in the rotation.

      Aceves & Hughes back in the rotation (at least for the mean time) Joba in the pen (I've been saying it since day 1) and Wang... I could care less where they put him - AA ball for all I care. Until he starts pitching like the Wang we're used to, he doesn't belong in the starting rotation.



      That is all.

          Well that's not the pitching's fault.

                  I think Wang is going to the pen if he doesn't pitch well tonight. He hasn't looked like himself for the last couple of years.

                    Pathetic loss. Why wasn't A-Rod, stealing in the 9th? If he goes, and they throw him out, Gardner is going to score. Or they don't throw to 2nd and they have runners on 2nd and 3rd.

                    I don't think Wang was that great, but he probably did enough to stay in the rotation.

                      garunteed girardi will find some excuse to keep him in, even though he gave up 3 runs and all that. he'll come up with something like well he did have a couple of ground balls and good velocity. still cant afford to have him in there if he isnt winning

                        He wasn't great at all tonight. He had his moments though, but he doesn't look solid out there. I agree that he did keep his job at least for 1 more start.

                          Hughes is making Wang look bad.

                            Anyone know how long CC is out for? He didn't think the injury was serious but biceps "tightness" can't be all that great lol.
