I'm not surprised. This Yankee team didn't look all that much better than the one that lost to Boston last year.
There will be a lot of talk in New York about the need to improve their starting rotation, but I don't think that is their biggest need right now. The single biggest thing they can do to improve next year is to simply get healthier players on the roster. It is unacceptable to have a team in the playoffs with roster spots taken up by a fat slob like C.C. Sabathia and a broken-down player like Stanton who can't really play any position on the field even when he IS "healthy."
Last night’s game was a disaster IMO. 4+ hours to play a 9 inning game when only 10 runs were scored? I’m a geezer, but I remember when a typical Catfish Hunter complete game took less than 2 hours.
