Ron Villone
21 February 2008
oad off of Mariano Rivera. He also lessened the stress for Kyle Farnsworth, Luis Vizciano and Ron Villone. With his high 90’s fastball and devastating slider Joba, definitely did rule. If he is back in the bullpen this season there is no reason not to believe he won’t do more of the same, his stuff is that nasty. Being in the bullpen this season would also keep his innings down for the future because the Yankees do say, no matter what, one day he will be a starter. And having Joba as the guy handing the ball to Mo makes the Yankees bullpen a strength of the team. This move is safe because the Yankees know what he can do as a reliever but is it the best move for the team, this year or in the future?
