    The latest news has Pineda out until August and Sabathia out until after the All-Star Game.

    A fine pair of JO's drawing huge salaries under false pretenses.

    My hope is a healthier Sabathia regains some velocity after this and is a help to this team. I have zero faith in Pineda. Looks like damaged goods to me.

    Yeah CC is needed but given his history from a couple of years back and his inability to beat Boston or Tampa I'd have to say wish with a hand in front and the other over you butt and see what gets filled first. I've been jeeped on Whitley and wish him continued success. Yanks need to find a 2014 version of Small to aid the rotation. The offense will hopefully surge during this home stand.

    500K to me is a huge salary. at my present rate of income it would take me about 16 years to make 500K not to mention all the perks. And this dude is riding the sick books to boot.

    Pineda is a train wreck & CC has been reduced to a 5-6 inning pitcher at best. Of course I'd like to see him come back strong & pitch well but I'd also like to wake up with Jennifer Lopez.

    I don't have high hopes for CC ever returning to "form" but can comfortably state, CC > Nuno. Take it slow with Pineda and hopefully he can pick it up in August. I'd imagine we probably see a trade by then.

    I don't know, she said something about me being to much man for her & she didn't want to disappoint me. So I had to settle for Salma Hayek.

    You're mistaking me for Steve (Hammer), he's the one who mentioned his LITTLE soldier earlier. I don't wear an ankle holster for nothing.

    No SOMETIMES its not the size of the ship but the motion of the ocean.

    And my error, it was Tom that mentioned the little hammer not Steve.
