CASH MONKEY:
Ross Ohlendorf-S- Yankees (RotoworldMay. 12, 2007)
Ross Ohlendorf was roughed up for six earned runs and nine hits in 2 2/3 innings Friday in a loss for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Well, the Yankees may not have landed Roger Clemens if they still had Randy Johnson, but they can't be liking their return for the big left-hander so far. Luis Vizcaino has been awful in the bullpen, and Ohlendorf has allowed 42 hits and 19 walks in 34 2/3 innings for Scranton. He walked a total of 29 batters in 182 2/3 innings last year.

Hey, it's not like they traded a rookie of the year ss and a 20 year old starting pitcher with a no-hitter already under his belt for Bye-Bye- Beckett.

Shortstops are a dime a dozen. #1 starters are gold. That's why the Yankee future is so wrapped up in Hughes and why Torre ought not be allowed near him again.
