It seems like almost all of the Yankees pitchers are way underperforming their projected performance(based on walks, K's etc.)

Is this just crazy variance or do you think defense could be a big factor?

Age and overuse?

[/ QUOTE ]
ridiculous
the yanks have the best starting rotation in baseball. 4 sure hall of famers. must be some other excuse.

[/ QUOTE ]

most of the yankee starters are not underperforming. OTOH, farnsworth, rivera, and vizcaino have been much worse than expected.

where were you this time last week, scott?

drunk

Not putting Rivera in during a tie game in the 9th is pretty standard for Joe Torre.

first he bunts with robinson [censored] cano, which is retarded - then brings in scott proctor instead of mariano rivera. just brilliant work, mr. torre.

While I'd roll the dice and use Mo more in such situations, you guys do understand why you don't put a closer into tie games on the road, right? It's hardly stupid.

yeah i mean why would you want your best pitcher to prevent a team from scoring a run.

it's pretty obvious why you bring in your closer in that spot - it's the highest leverage spot in the game so far, and if you get a lead at some other point, your worse pitcher now has at least a 1 run margin - 1 run doesn't mean an automatic loss.

but no rivera has to get some of those save baubles.
