Just when it seems the Yankees have too many starting pitchers for their
rotation, Roger Clemens' ailing right elbow may have solved that problem.
Joe Torre hasn't announced his rotation for this weekend's three-game series
in Kansas City, though he is expected to do so before tonight's game against
the Mariners.
Ian Kennedy, who won his big-league debut on Saturday, figures to start
Friday. What happens beyond that remains to be seen, as Torre might slot
Mike Mussina against the Royals, as the struggling veteran is 2-0 with a
2.31 ERA in two starts against Kansas City this season.
"We know we want to see Ian Kennedy again; I don't think that's any secret,"
Torre said. "But we certainly need to get Mike involved somewhere along the
line, and that's where the planning has to take place. We have to figure out
how we're going to go about that."
With off-days scheduled for Thursday and Monday, the Yankees can choose
either to give their starters an extra day or two of rest or to skip someone,
possibly Hughes, who has allowed 14 earned runs in 16-2/3 innings over his
last three starts, or Mussina.
