The Yankees better hope Giambi comes back soon.

 

The lineup they have out there now isn't gonna support this pitching staff.

Chacon just had a bad outing, I'm not worried about him long term. So far, we've had good pitching since we lost Matsui. Chacon gave up 1 run against you guys (granted he only went 4.2IP), Wang threw a SHO, Randy gave a winnable outing, and Mussina gave us 7IP and 2ER. We just cannot hit, period...

Chacon has been an escape artist all year. Wang is OK, but he can be wild.

 

Mussina is having an excellent year, but RJ looks old.

 

Thing is, unless Mussina (and sometimes RJ) are going, you'll have to usually score 5+ runs to do so. The lineup you put out tonight is going to have a tough time doing that.

He usually runs in the 1.3-1.4 range. His last 2 starts have jacked that up a bit. He aint a savior, but he'll get the job one over the season as a #4. Hopefully, Pavano can step up and move Chacon to a #5.....

RJ looked like he might be turning a corner. Mussina has completely revolutionized his ability to pitch. Wang has the stuff to dominate and is just putting it together. If Johnson gets his head out of his ass, we'd have a formidable top 3. Chacon will at least go .500 on the season because he will give you solid starts 3 out of 5 times and we'll pick him up a couple times on the side. Wright has been good, Pavano has the ability to be better. We could use one more pitcher though, the injury bug hit the offense hard, but chances are it will hit our rotation harder at some point this yr. If we had Matsui and Sheff, we sweep the A's and we win yesterdays game. Today was a lost cause from the beginning. We need Sheff back. We need Giambi back. We can get a serviceable LFer for cheap if Melky continues to struggle. Thank god it is may, but we gotta get healthy....

RJ has an ERA over 5, gives up HRs to Kotsay and Payton, and he's "turning a corner"??

 

Pass the Kool-Aid.

Same pitch he threw to Hernandez. When a 125 lbs (soaking wet) corpse can knock it out of the yard, you might want to think about taking that one out of the arsenal, Curt.
