    I saw Ponson leaving the Cards, didnt think that he would end up in pistripes.
    The sad part is I think this is a good move for the yanks.
    They need someone to eat some innings in that rotation.
    By the way, whats the update on Pavano?

    Pavano and Dotel would both be huge. I hate to say it, but this pretty much signals Toronto or Boston wins the east.

    I feel that Dotel will be a bust for them myself razz.

    I'm not saying he's going to have an ERA under 2.00, but he's a lot better than anyone in that pen except Mo, Farnsworth, and Proctor.

    He's only been there half a season. A lot better pitchers than KF have come to NY and struggled for a year, and been good after that.

    The Yanks took a chance on Tim Redding last year...you cant get a bigger reach then that guy. After that move nothing they do will surpride me. Redding was a guy who couldnt handle the pressure in Houston....and the yanks thought he could pitch in that pressurecooker?

    the yankees did take a bigger reach than redding last year though. they took a shot with Al Lieter.

    True, but at least Leiter beat the Red Sox. Redding lost 17-1 against Boston.
