I told you so
Seems now Joe stated that its his fault with the
rotation and time off that AJ Pitched the way he
did last night in embarrassing loss to Bosox.

You mean to tell me this man Giradi going to question our intelligence? he went out of his
way to make sure all wk AJ started the Bosox
series by distrusting Andy Petittie and show no
confidence in his Veteran.

No wonder ? the Vets on this team like Jorge & Mo aint thrilled with Mr Giradi. You'd never ever know Giradi once played and won rings with
these guys
Droll

Yes Yanks won games played well before Bosox
game but lets be real Joe is making all these
moves and unless you win ?then folks will talk.

Boston is in head of Yankees and for them to go
on like it doesnt bother them needs to change.

Panick move to change rotation. Burnett a Red Sox killer? I guess Girardi forgot that Burnett got rocked last time he pitched against the Sox.

Cashman and Girardi also panicked when they brought Wang up before he had the arm strength. He should have stayed in the minors for at least 3 starts.

I agree that Joba should start, but so should Hughes. Wang should still be building arm strength in the minors, not Fenway Park.

Cashman should be doing 2 things. Finding a taker for Jose Veras and trying to get bullpen help. At least trade Veras, so they can try someone else from the minors (Melancon).

No way in hell would I trade Veras now. His stuff is too good. He throws in the upper 90s and he's got wicked breaking stuff. I know the results aren't there this year because he's not finding the plate consistently enough but there are times when I watch him throw and I think to myself, "How the hell does anyone hit this guy?" He's got plenty of option years left. There's no reason to trade Veras now. Just send him down to the minors and let him work out his problems there.
