I have a good point about AJ Burnett y doesnt any1 think of this?

The Yankees have LOTS of backup starting pitchers in case aj gets hurt- and the pressure is off that pitcher would be the #5.

They have ian kennedy, phil hughes, and alfredo aceves

Update:

Yes i know they arent the most amazing three but they are the yankees aces of the future

    Listen guys. Burnett is a baby. The only time the guy performs is during a contract year. He can't handle pressure. The guy is a con artist. I believe he has huge talent but doesn't like to play baseball. So Yankee fans be prepared to get a guy who lives on the injured list. But don't worry when his contract is up in 5 years you will get a damn good pitching performance. Until then enjoy the roller coaster ride with this guy
