So, Pettitte is injured, Hughes is shaky, Burnett needs anger management and Vasquez's puss, which is becoming Moyeruesque, is making the second half of the season and 2.5 game lead look awfully grim.
Oh, and the bullpen is a mess — only Robertson and Rivera appear capable of getting outs. Logan eats innings, but they're usually junk innings, Chamberlain looks like he's throwing BP. I'm not even sure who else is out there. Catino Mobley, Dwayne Johnson ... oh, Dustin Moseley. And then Park and Gaudin.
Granted, this is/was the Angels, and they always give the Yanks fits, no matter what kind of a team they field.
And now Ralph Houk is dead. When Sheppard and Steinbrenner died, I was asked who's next, and answer was obvious, but I didn't want to say. Then he fell before the old-timers' game and I thought, great, "I killed Yogi." But it looks as if the third was Houk, 90, who won 1,600+ games as a big league manager. Impressive.
