So Francesa just came on as a guest on his own show to talk about the Met trade debacle last night when all of the sudden he drops a BOMB about the Yankees and Michael Pineda/Ivan Nova. His sources told him that Pineda is likely to be scratched tonight due to an elbow problem and he'll likely end up on the DL. It also looks like Nova's arm problems might be more than just a little fatigue. All of this happening like minutes after the Blue Jays make another splash and take David Price off the market.
If all of this is true, and there's probably nobody I trust more with sources than Francesa, than this is FUCKED. Between Tanaka looking anything like an ace last night and Hamels coming off the market, the front end of this rotation is in serious, serious trouble. What's the solution? Bring up Severino and hope for the best? Trade for fucking Mike Leake?? I don't know but Cashman better figure this shit out before tomorrow at 4 or we're well on our way to squandering a great opportunity for a deep postseason run. Unbelievable. 24 hours ago we were riding high. Everything was coming up pinstripes. Now the world has been flipped upside down. At least we're not the Mets???
