Yankees upgrade roatation

By acquiring Mariners Michael Pineda and signing free agent Hiroki Kuroda, the Yankees have boosted there rotation that features C.C. Sabathia and Ivan Nova. The Yankees sent top prospect Jesus Montero and right handed pitcher Hector Noesi to complete the Michael Pineda trade. The Yankees also got righty Jose Campus who was included in the blockbuster deal between the Yankees and Mariners. Pineda who finished with a 3.74 E.R.A. last season as a rookie, will help the Yankees feature one of the best roatations in all of baseball. Adding Kuroda also will just make the Yankees pitching better. Even though Kuroda only had a record of 13-16, he had an outstanding E.R.A. of 3.07. Adding both Pineda and Kuroda were two great additions for the Yankees to rebuild there shacky roation from the rotation. The rotation will most likley be this: Sabathia, Pineda, Kuroda, Nova, then either Burnett or Garcia or Phil Hughes. The Yankees will have one of the top 5 rotations this season after adding two great players in Pineda and Kuroda.
