This guy is a joke. Time and time again the yankees keep sending him out to pitch when he clearly cant. I almost feel bad for Yankees fan that have to see this loser every 5th day. I really want a rematch against the Phillies in world series but if they keep sending out this type of pitching they wont stand a chance getting there!
Burnett, just another overpaid athlete who with any other team, other than Philly, Red Sox, Milwaukee, Texas, et al., would never make the starting rotation. George Steinbrenner understood one thing. You get what you pay for. Without Mr. "S" around, you are about to watch, in the next couple of years, Posada, Jeter, Mariano R., and the less than par pitching starters, (except Sabathia) slowly lower the almighty Yankee flag. Philly has a ok bullpen, not that they really ever need one all that often, as they either usually have nice leads, but occasionally they, like everyone lose. I'm wagering on the Yankees today, but certainly not because of NOVA. Its more against Blackburn, and the fickle Twin offense. If the Yankees still do anything thrilling, its that they can hit. But if the Giants proved anything last year, it was that good pitching the majority of the time beats good hitting. Something the Yankees just could not buy quick enough (so said Ron Guidry) this year. Don't worry, the Yankees know with this one man pitching show they have sold to a yankee fan base, which includes the one bullpen ace who is aging by the second, that sooner rather than later, pitching will either be addressed or like every other Yankee front office in history, will fire Joe Girardi. And God knows this make shift pitching staff surely isn't his fault. How long does Alex R. have left after his rehab? before long, the Yankees better address the starting pitcher roblem, and while they are at it, get rid of Nunez. Everytime I watch him play, he makes a error. Why in God's name do they keep him around? Theres always next year! For everyone. Maybe one day in the next 10 years, they will rename the stadium, "The Bronx Tale."
NYY bullpen is not an issue, the bull pen is much more than Mo.
Robertson is one of the best in the league at what he does. His numbers are staggering. He is the best non closing reliever in the business so far this year.
Soriano, now healthy, is pitching like the elite pitchers that he was before coming over to the Bronx, retiring 17 out of the last18 batters he's faced since coming off the DL.
Boone Logan has 33 K's in 31 IP's has an outstanding 1.2 WH/IP ratio and a 2.8 earned run average pitching in the big boy division.
NYY glaring weakness is starting pitching, hitting and the bull pen is not an issue.
FH spouting off, even after he promised he wouldn't. You know NADA FH, NYY pen is the best in MLB, MO is amazing and show's no signs of slowing doen. You disrespect of players si pure hatred and and its a pity you must crave attention. Jeter since his return is SICK, over .340 and almost near .300 for the yr.

Show me an issue for seasons results. You basing it on PERCEPTION that most people do. Looka at results for yr on CC, FG, COLON, NOVA and Phil recently!!, Thye can very easily win it all. You can't look at age and they have no long term future as a 5 yr staff, BUT THEY HAVE PROVEN THEY CAN WIN FOR 2011, THAT'S ALL FOLKS. who cares about 2013, 2014 in 2011!!,
T-Cane- Spouting off? What are you, a socialist. This is America my friend. Don't confuse intelligence with your own lowest depravities. I say whatever I want, without using vulgar language or degrading anyone. It seems you can't type one sentence without typing my name. Wake up and smell the roses. The Yankees are "generic" and in no way compare to any of the Yankees who paved the way for them to have the honor to wear the pinstripes. Well, except for Jeter, and a couple more. Learn to accept the fact you will never live to see the Yankees win another World Series, unless they go out and buy 2 or 3 good pitchers.
Well, you should know, after handicapping the starter, you need to handicap the bullpens, who's available, who's not, if Mo isn't available, NYY has other options.
Don't jump ugly with me FH, I can go toe toe with you, just stating, the NYY bullpen is as solid as they come, there is no argument regarding the starters.
