Lackey and Burnett kind of cancel each other out. I wonder which out of the two will be better in October. I am a life-long Yankee fan, but I think Crawford will be fine. I don't know if he will live up to his contract, but he will probably have close to a Crawford like year next year. If you take away his injury and his first two months of the season, his stats aren't that bad at all.
As for A-Rod, I think his future with the Yanks is going to be at DH. I am hoping that the Yanks tirelessly workout Nunez at 3B in the offseason. He is going to be a very good offensive player, and has shown flashes defensively, but is still a long ways away from being an everyday player because of his poor defense. I think if A-Rod is allowed to DH, there will be less wear and tear and he will put up some huge numbers the next 2-3 years.
