AJ Burnett's Season is Awesome...

for making interesting graphs showing how un-awesome he is:

If you've never been to visual baseball, I suggest you go there, now.  

ANYWAYS, this is why the Yankees #4 starter has gotten so much attention, AJ Burnett has been that bad, as the graph clearly illustrates.

On the other hand, Tommy Hunter is pitching for the Rangers in game 4 and if the Yankees' bats don't own him then they don't deserve to win.

On the other, other hand, Cliff Lee and Andy Pettitte pitch tonight, not AJ Burnett.  I'm not sure how confident I am in Andy Pettitte, there was a reason we were concerned about him in the ALDS, one start doesn't change everything.  Plus, for all the talk about Sabathia having "too much rest", why would that be a total non factor for Pettitte? If pedigree is worth anything I think we can expect Pettitte to not have Hughes-ian craptastic start,  but Yankee fans shouldn't expect a repeat of game 2 ALDS.  

The Yankees don't have to beat Cliff Lee to win this game, they just have to get him out of there after 6-7 innings, so they can beat the Darrens (Oliver and O'Day) and the rest of the Rangers suspect bullpen.  There's no chance the non-Feliz relievers can put up several perfect frames.  The Yankees pitching is kind of the opposite, I doubt the Rangers can score off of Joba (looked nasty in game 2)/Wood/Mo but Pettitte is a little suspect.  Whoever wins (I'll guess Yankees 5 Rangers 4) I think this will be the first good game of the series as game one shouldn't have have been so damn good.
