    I've always thought if you have someone like Joba, it's hard to justify not having him in the rotation instead of the bullpen, but I'm really starting to think otherwise with this current NYY bullpen.

    Also, I almost lol'd at Ecko's sig, I had to stifle it because I'm in class.

    :lol: I never got into the whole Joba-Bullpen or Not debate on TGG, so I'm just being a prick by posting that. Don't mind me, I'm frustrated.

    There are more arms in the minors at least. Melancon can come up at some point and save us. Robertson has ability, too. A lot of people have ability. Someone's gotta put it together...

    I'm glad one game dictates the entire season. The pen has struggled ina couple of games but been good most of the year. You will lose games from time to time. No need to overreact.

    Struggling in a couple games, when the season is 2 weeks in? That's OK? C'mon.

    The Yankees will be 5-5 with plenty of opportunity to be atleast 7-3. Thats what upsets me most. They are okay though. Behind the Blue Jays and the O's? haha.

    It's frustrating because there have been at-bats where Ransom (C-Ran?) has hit the ball hard, but it hasn't resulted in a hit.

    We have no choice but to stick with him until A-Rod is back. Pena's bat isn't any better, and there is no one else on the bench that can play 3B.

    Eric Duncan...isn't he a 3rd baseman?

    Also, am I the only one who was satisfied with C.C.'s start today? Everyone is saying he struggled. Michael Kay put it best. He bent but did not break.
