I'm happy AP is back for many reasons. First and foremost, he's a Yankee. That's just how it is. Secondly, he's never in his entire career had a sub-500 season, so at worst he's an excellent fourth starter who will eat up a lot of innings. Sure he's been on the DL now and then, but I don't see it being a major cause for concern from him. Thirdly, it gives all the young guys their first REAL year of high-level development. Counting on the kids to fill three spots in the rotation plus fill in for potetntial injuries is unrealistic, and absolutely horrible in terms of development. Now Joba can be cut off at 150, and there's some cushion for when guys go down for a start or three. Who would you rather have as a spot starter, Sidney Ponson or Phil Franchise? Righto, buddo. Fourth, he's a Yankee. Yes I already said it, suck it up.

Four-Six is back home for another season. Now I'd have to say I'd kill a man to see a Billy Chapel season our of him to start The Sixth Yankees Dynasty.
