AJ Pitches for his Yankee Career

By Frank Solares


AJ Burnett is 1-1 with a 5.27 ERA career in his postseason. Now he will make the biggest start of his career, a start that might determined if he will remain a Yankee. With Lee on the free agency market at the end of the year and with Nolan Ryan saying “Ask the Yankees how much they will pay him”, they might not have room for him in the roster next year. He can be traded to at least 5 teams in the National League, as long as the Yankees are willing pick up the rest of the contract and or eat 90 percent of the 3 years left on it.

That will allow them to Go hard after Lee and have CC, Lee, Pettite, Hughes and Nova. The pitching staff will be an upgrade from this year and might even be as good as any pitching staff in Baseball.

No pressure AJ, but tonight might be your last start as a Yankee so make it a good one or you will become a distant memory and just another name Yankees pitching history that never made it.
