First, we don't know what pitches he was using when he got touched up. Maybe working on other pitches to try for outs. Also, the double might not have been if there was better defense. Remember this was minor league ball. Of course that doesn't say much about the earlier efforts being good either. If Wang can win 19 or 20 games and not be the wins leader of the club, that isn't a bad thing. ;) Two thing about Wang’s efforts today.

Oh, well. There's always next year. Wait! No there isn't! I take it, then, that Pavano is hurt and can’t make the start this year. Oh, well. There’s always next year.

I get the feeling Wang will not lead the Yankees in wins this year. Man I hope today was an abberation for CMW. I get the feeling Wang will not lead the Yankees in wins this year.

Holes that should disappear at the stadium with the grass and the slightly better than class A talent in the infield...

Then again, it's good not to have him around at all. It’s a good omen by itself not having Pavano on the mound for opening day. Then again, it’s good not to have him around at all.

It's got to be like being one strike from a no-no in the ninth and giving up a bleeder. I hate to be this way, but just think how Team Clemens feels coming thisclose to being rid of McNamee.
