BAMBINO:
I really only caught the 1st inning where the Bombers scored 5 times ( I was watching the Ranger game posted below). You would figure that would be enough. But the Yankee pitching last night, was horrendous. Anytime the Yanks score 11 runs they should win right? WRONG! Kei Igawa at this point is too inconsistent. I think he should eventually become the new Tanyon Sturtze. Long relief and a spot start here and there. However, the DL conga line of starting pitchers is forcing Torre to keep Igawa in the rotation. At least Wang is pitching today. Although he dropped his first 2 starts since coming off the DL, his stuff has been good. It would behoove him to go at least 7 to give the embattled middle relief some rest. I'd say only Proctor, Farnsworth, and Mo should available in the pen today. The good news about today's matchup is that our old buddy Jeff Weaver will be hurling for Seattle. Weaver is 0-4 with an 18.26 ERA. Surely he is hittable, especially with this Yankee lineup. All Wang has to do is keep the Mariners to 3 runs. The Yankee bats should do the rest.BOX SCORE/WRAP:
