Is Ian Kennedy going to be the odd man out as the Yankees 5th starter?

Why would he be?

When Joba begins to start then one of hughes or kennedy will be bumped. Who knows how it's going to play out

Not necessarily. Mussina can easily be dropped from the rotation, if he's even healthy.

Yeah Moose is the first to go. I'm pretty sure about that.

Kennedy is definitely starting the year in the rotation. I don't think the Yankees know who they will bump, it will depend on how the pitchers pitch ie it will sort itself out. I think Kennedy is one of the least likely to get bumped.

well good to hear, as a Kennedy owner. I guess I made a bad assumption or remebered a totally ficticious article.

Kennedy is being counted on for 180 innings. He is safe unless he gets roughed up pretty good and I don't think that's happening. This kid is legit and could win 12 to 14 games.

The Yankees probably won't bump any for Joba, they will just wait until some gets hurt. Otherwise the guy who gets bumped will be the one who sucks the most.
