Their offense was shit this series, but I doubt the Yankees are going to start blaming their problems on their lineup. They need starting pitching. Bad.

Exactly. Girardi somehow patched together a rotation through the year with Freddie Garcia, Bartolo Colon, and a drunk Phil Hughes. I see them overpaying CJ Wilson more than overpaying Prince.

Question is whether Cashman comes back, whether CC opts out for more years, whether Swisher is around next year. Posada is done as a Yankee, unfortunately, it's just time to move on.

I don't think so we need more hitting then pitching. If it weren't for our hitting we would be going to the ALDS right now. I really don't think our need for starting pitching is really that big. If we over pay Prince Fielder without getting CJ Wilson I think we have all ready made ourselves a better team. We do need pitching but, right now our major problem is the middle of the lineup. ESPECIALLY A-ROD. But, on the other hand do we need Prince Fielder when we are grooming our very own Young home run hitting DH in Montero?

While what you said is true, the Yankees' demise in the ALDS could be, and shouldbe, equally attributed to having to face an extremely talented Tigers pitching rotation (although C.C.'s ineptitude starting Game 2 and in relief in Game 5 last night didn't help matters as far as N.Y.'s pitching in the series).

Actually, they would have been headed to the ALCS.

Shit! Forgot about that. The Yankees left so many people on base it was unbelievable.

Especially A-Rod? The guy hurt all year, let's look at Teixeira. The guy sucked all year, great at tacking on stats in no pressure situations.

Won't get any better with A-Rod because the Yankees still stuck with him for 6 more years and nobody wants to touch that in any deal unless the Yankees ate most of the money.
