but #2, Boston's rotation, with the exception of Julian Tavarez (who will probably be replaced soon by Jon Lester), is in much better shape than the Yankees is at this point in time.
True, but at this point, I think Boston has the better chance to win the World Series than the Yankees and that's what he's really after. It is only May and the Yankees have had a grocery list of injuries. We'll see how they do when they get everyone back healthy, but the easier road would have been with Boston. Whereas with the Yankees, everyone is expecting him to be the savior on his white horse.
