Bad News
The Wanger will be out until early September. Ugh. Why were my prayers not answered? Is there no God?
Looks like Geise will draw the first straw and makes Wang’s next scheduled start. He is not a long term solution. I saw him pitch in relief when Joba made his first start and he has average stuff at best. He cannot make any mistakes or he will get pounded.
My hunch is they are buying time until Kartsens can get another start or 2 at AAA and then bring him up. It will be interesting to see who they bring up to take Wang’s spot. I would be shocked if it was not Britton. They love calling that guy up and never using him.
The Yanks have shown a lot of toughness this year with A-rod being out, Posada being out, Jeter hurt, moving Joba to the rotation. They are going to have to show a lot of fight to get to the All-star break in good shape.
