Cliff Lee was masterful last night against the Yankees. Most consider this an audition much like a great ad man winning an account against a bigger firm and the firm deciding that they must hire him. This is inevitably what will happen with the Yankees and Mr. Lee. A strong lefthanded starter to pitch half his games in Yankee stadium is a no brainer.
One does wonder what happened to Lee in Texas this year however. I think it will be a great move for the Yankees however. Lee has proven he can pitch on the big stage, his performance in the playoffs this year and last bodes well for his future.
While one never knows this does not appear to be a Javier Vasquez kind of pitcher. Speaking of that is there any better illustration of the difference between the leagues than Javier Vasquez.
