Not So Random Yankee Stat of the Day


Including the stink-fest he offered up Saturday, Javier Vasquez has lasted longer than 6 innings once in his last 13 starts in the American League (5 starts this year, his last 8 starts with the White Sox in 2008). Vasquez is 3-9 over that time period.

And in case you're wondering, I'm not bitter because I went to the stadium and saw him stink up the joint this past Saturday. Not bitter at all.

Recognizing these struggles Javy won't pitch against the Red Sox this weekend -- instead the Yankees will keep him off the big stage and he'll start next Monday against the White Sox. It's probably for the best, at the rate he's going, even David Ortiz could hit hit him right now.
