By now, you’ve heard the rhetoric:  The Yankees need Starting Pitching .   The current pitching rotation is in shambles after a week in which they were ripped to the tune of 52 runs (48 earned) in 26 innings pitched.   Let me repeat that: 52 runs in 26 innings.   Mercifully, Domingo German was able to put an end to that streak last night, earning his 13th win, going 5.1 innings with just three earned runs, in a 9-6 victory over the Red Sox. While there is absolutely no question that this team needs to add another starting pitcher (or two) before Wednesday’s MLB Trade Deadline, there is another way the team can improve the pitching staff: by way of the bullpen.

By: Chad Raines In case you’ve missed it, the New York Yankees have had a HUGE day today. First, the club acquired Didi Gregorius from the Arizona Diamondbacks in a deal that sent young starting pitcher Shane Greene to the Tigers. Then, the Yankees made another splash signing relief pitcher Andrew Miller.
