Fight For Five


Joba has started bad but pitched good in his last outing . Phil Hughes had a few good starts. Until Friday Chad Gaudin was looking good but after getting roughed up by Tampa. He could be out of the 5th spot. Alfred Aceves and Sergio Mitre have pitched well as they all try for the 5th and final spot in the Yankee rotation.

With two weeks till opening night in Boston the Yanks have some time to get their 5th spot.

Early in the season you don't need a fifth starter till the second week of the season. Most Yankee fans feel Joba is better in the pen and Hughes was made to be a starter. So far Javier Vasqez has pitched well and has won the # 4 spot. It looks like there is one spot and five guys still have a shot. We should know more by the end of the week.
