As I recall, people around baseball were pissed that the Yankees were able to re-sign him below market value. EVERYONE was pleased with the signing (find me one thing written that wasn't), so yeah, 20-20 hindsight is great. Fault Cashman for Igawa, but not for Mussina. Anyway, Kennedy is a great move. And obviously Mussina still can pitch better than he has in his last 3 starts. He'll make a great long man, a 6th/7th inning option, and can fill in if someone gets hurt.

For now his role is limited, but he's always lurking. Well I’d say Giambi still has a little to say on what happens with the yankees. For now his role is limited, but he’s always lurking.

When the Yankees would realize they need a farm system and young arms. That day is upon everyone. It's amazing they survived as long as they did without homegrown, cheap talent.
