Probably not, but I'll start the topic.

 

He has really turned the corner since the All-Star break. He's getting the ball and pitching it. He's attacking the batters, and he's not going from 0-2 to 3-2 anymore. He's just outstanding right now. He knows what he's doing. He's just finished an 8 inning 3 hit shutout and is at 110.2 innings on the season.

 

Here's the situation. It's been said that he is on a innings count this season. They were smart enough not to release the innings count, but you can assume it's around 150. So you'll have to take him out of the rotation earlier than that so you can get him to the innings count in the bullepn. So around 120-125 innings and he's done, and back in the bullpen. So thats about 2-3 starts. How can you take a pitcher doing so well and just take him out of the rotation? I know you have to, but it's a tough pill to swallow. But on top of taking a much improved pitcher from the rotation, you are left with 3 pitchers in your rotation from the beginning of the season in Sabathia, Burnett, and Pettitte. And the final 2 spots go to Mitre, who they really aren't high on, and they do not have another starter. It's either Kei Igawa  or trade for someone, who they also seem to be reluctant to do.

 

You become GM...what do they do to make the team better? Meaning don't bring up Igawa just so you can bet against him.
