Do the yankees have one of the worst 3 starting pitching staffs in the league?

Randy Johnson looks ancient out there. He is like an old racehorse that needs to be retired. He looks absolutely horrid.No way they come within 5 games of wild card.

They might but they also have the potential to be one of the best...everyone keeps waiting for it to happen, yet it still hasn't....you can still get value against the Yankees alot of times....

Most overpaid easily, but not bottom 3 !

As I have said since taking a good look at this staff in April, they will not make the playoffs...

Basically the Yanks are the Texas Rangers of a couple years back, plenty of bats, but no arms... and picking up old arms , Nomo, Embree, Chacon, Leiter, just goes to show, they have little left on the farm to offer...

He's one of their best starters now, at least by era, good pick-up by Yankee standards !

With their lineup and if they get some healthy arms, they are still a legit contender.
