You hit the nail right on the head, FS. That's exactly the problem. If there was young, talented pitching to be bought, the Yankees would have done it already. Instead, they'll make moves for pitchers like Johnson and Clemens, expecting them to be a fix, when they won't be. There's enough talent in the lineup, even in the face of potential injuries, that if the bullpen could hold onto a lead, there wouldn't BE a problem.

Btw, it was nice to see Mo back in form last night. 8th inning, 3 batters, what did he throw? Maybe 10 pitches?? I know it wasn't a save situation, but seeing him pitch like that certainly made ME feel better.
