When the American League gets rid of the DH, and pitchers come to the plate.

In their last five games the Yankees were leading in all games, but lost. When's the last time that happened?

I was also surprised that Rivera has no saves yet. He'll still get about 40.

I wouldn't worry about the bullpen yet. One of the effective bullpens I remember was the A's in 1980 because their starters, including Mike Norris, Matt Keough and Rick Langford, had 94 complete games among them. Brian Kingman went 8-20, but completed 10 games. Even Bob Lacey, who would have been deemed their closer (although that term wasn't tossed around so widely then), had a complete game shut out that year.

Of course, nobody's expecting 94 complete games, but the starters have to get you through the 6th or 7th innings consistently to keep your bullpens effective.
