I think they're going to need starters AND relievers. Torre is doing as awful job yet again with his bullpen. To some extent, he can't help it because his starters have been so bad. But he continues to use the same guys over and over and is going to kill any effectiveness they might have. Proctor pitched 12 times in the first 17 games; 8 of the last 12. There was no reason to pull Chase Wright after the inning he gave up the 4 HRs; I would have at least sent him out there to start the 4th and see what happens. At some point, you've just got to leave your starters in there and let them get beat to a pulp - take one for the team. Ruining your good relievers and continuing to rely on Bruney, Viscaino, Myers, Henn, etc. (all of whom have been in at least half of the Yankees games already!) has got to seriously backfire on them - right?!
