Wang to the DL
This isn't good news, according to WFAN radio he is headed to the DL. I don't have a link, will post more info as I find it.
Shoulder inflammation, on the 15 DL but rumors are he could be out for the year which would be disastrous.
Here is the press release from yankees.com:

Tim Redding called up.

*Gulp* Not good.
His shoulder? Was he overworked?

Hopefully we have someone to make starts for now. In a month we could be in some trouble.
In a month, Brown, Wright and Pavano will all be back.

Brown and Wright have been ineffective at best. Pavano has reverted back to pre-Marlins forum. Id be damn worried if Wang is out.
2003 Hybrid World Champion (115-47 reg season, 11-4 playoffs)
TBL: Anaheim Angels 2006-present (238-244 regular season, 1 division title)
MSL: St Louis Cardinals 2013-present (2734-2936 regular season, 5 division titles, 2 championships)
TSSL: Seattle Mariners 2006-2029, Pittsburgh Pirates 2030-present (209-277, 5 division titles w/SEA, 1 championship w/SEA)
I am pretty sure that Wright, Brown, and Pavano will not be effective against anyone else.
I love posts like that. It is not like we need people to throw 7-8 innings of shutout baseball to stay in the game. There is usually room for error.
It would be nice to get Wang back but the Yankees will weather this storm like anyone else does and will be fine.
They cant even get quality starts right now. Im not expecting 7-8 innings of shutout ball. But dammit, they needs more than just 5 IPS allowing 5 ERs.

With todays win the Yankees are 1.5 games back and just 1 in the loss column.
Thanks for your concern. I am sure we will be fine.
The differece is wang has always been consistent and always kept us in the game. Wright, brown and pavano have struggled and have cost us some games. This is bad news and it makes it tougher on us.
I won't argue that there is cause for concern but just because a guy allows 7 earned runs in 3 innings to Tampa Bay, doesn't mean he will get shelled every outing. That was Randy Johnson.
The A.L. has about a half dozen teams that have 9 hitters int heir lineup that do not provide a pitcher any breathers. If you don't bring your stuff it will be a short outing. That is fact.
Another fact is that Brown and Wright are veterans. Brown has mental toughness to rise up to challenges(excluding game 7 last year). It could be worse, we will see what happens. I don't believe the sky is falling just yet.
