Yanks Strengthening Bullpen

If it weren’t for the Yankees misfortune of not landing Cliff Lee, I’d say they are having a very nice offseason. The bullpen proved to be a strength for the Yankees last season, but since you can never have enough pitching, part of the Yankees offseason agenda was strengthening the ‘pen.

Pitching while injured must have taken its toll on the Hefty-Lefty, [...]
