investing 6-7 years and 100+ million in a pitcher is never a good fit, not to mention Zito has been steadily declining.

He's good and all, but still.

I predict an NL team will end up signing him.

Andy Phillips placed on waivers... seems like Josh Phelps (rule 5 draftee) has won the other half of the first base platoon

thank god - Phelps can't possibly be worse than Andy Phillips was last year. The guy had one decent month and one HORRIBLE month. How the Yankees succeed with so many -VORP guys as backups..

phelps was rule 5, so he couldn't be placed on waivers, because he would have to be returned to baltimore even if he cleared them.

this way there's hope that phillips would clear waivers and return to AAA.

Wang to start the season on the DL with a hamstring pull... out til "late April" in the words of Brian Cashman.

On the surface, this seems very bad.

However, both Karstens and Rasner have been performing extremely well in spring training this year... especially Karstens. I expect a rotation of Pettitte, Mussina, Pavano, Igawa (maybe), Karstens (possibly Rasner).

This really is not THAT bad. Assuming Wang gets back in short order (the amount of time Robbie Cano was out last year with a hamstring injury keeps looming in my mind... but I understand every hammy pull is different), the team should be just fine.

On top of that I expect the offense to score a ton of runs.

Losing your "ace" sucks, but when you have such depth plus run support...

Thoughts?
