The Yankees came in with a 4 game winning streak and feeling really good about themselves after rallying in dram tic fashion on Friday night. But the same evil problem popped up on Saturday afternoon again, May I introduce Mr. Bullpen. Outside of Rivera and Bruney everyone else has been either inconsistent or down right awful. When will Joe Girardi back off using Jose Veras? he folds up like a cheap umbrella. Damiso Marte has either been good or awful. Phil Coke has been good but at times awful. Edwar Ramierz has been roughed up also. David Roberson has not been used for some reason. I expect to see him used more soon. Mark Melancon who is a rookie has been impressive but has had his moments like Friday nights triple he gave up to the first batter he was facing with the bases loaded.
Here's what has to happen for things to get fixed. Its starts with the starting rotation to start stringing some solid starts together. Hope that Phil Hughes can become consistent we will have an idea with at least 2 more starts after today. Get Chien-Ming Wang mechanics fixed he finally admitted to having stiffness in his injured foot that prevented him from pushing off. I'm not sold on Joba Chamberlin as a starter, I think he can be more dominate as a setup man. Let me ask this question who should replace Mariano Rivera when he retires after next season ?
