- David Phelps
- Adam Warren
- Hector Noesi
- Joba Chamberlain (now it's dreamland territory)
Or they might be stuck with these guys as starters (again, pure speculation)
- Sergio Mitre
TomAlexBrian Gordon (remember him? Neither do I)- Andrew Brackman (probably a nice late-inning flamethrower, but starting? No thank you. Not until he learns
four, not seven balls result in a walkhow to throw strikes) - Jamie Moyer
Brett FavreRoger Clemens (hey, he never officially retired five times yet)
Of course, some of these people aren't even in the organization anymore and some others may end up in a different capacity, while a few might actually be a starter later on in the year. Thank goodness we've got Freddy there for now.
For the Yankees' sake, Garcia's return is valuable, but the rotation still looks a little slim after Sabathia. I wouldn't be surprised to see them place a bid on Yu Darvish or, more likely, see about a couple of those free agent pitchers from Japan.
