Yanks add another one who's next?
The Yankees and AJ Burnett have agreed to a 5 yr deal worth 82.5 million.  The Yankees now have CC,AJ,Wang,Joba and hopefully Petitte will come back and be the 5th starter otherwise they may be moving on to somewhere else.  I know everyone is worried about AJ staying healthy and that is a legit concern but my question to you is this, are the Yankees better with CC and AJ then they were with Ponson and Rasner?  I think we all know the answer to that.  AJ Burnett cant beat us anymore so thats a plus and he always beats the Red Sux so thats another plus and when he is healthy he is a dominant pitcher.  He may get hurt but he will give us innings unlike Pavano.  Joba as a 4th starter, that is scary.  The Yankees also have a great bullpen.  They may not get Manny or Tex now although i wouldn't be suprised.  If they dont though, this reminds me of the old Yanks, Pitching,D and find a way to score some runs with little ball.
