I think they should put him in the rotation too. So far Hughes and Kennedy are a combined 0-5 with a 18.46 ERA (Hughes is 0-3 with a 8.82 ERA while Kennedy is 0-2 with a 9.64 ERA). Granted these kids are young (Hughes is only 21 while Kennedy is 23) but the Yankees envision Joba as a starter in coming years anyway. They are saying he's going to be in the rotation by the end of the year. If they want to remain "somewhat" competitive, they have to have good starting pitching. Wang and Pettitte will hold their own, but they can't keep going 2 games with solid starters and 3 games with busts (Hughes, Kennedy and Mussina).
