Chien-Ming Wang won't be back on a mound for the Yankees for at least the next few weeks, as the Bombers believe they have located the root of the righthander's problems.
Chien-Ming Wang struggles as New York Yankees fall, 7-5, to Baltimore Orioles
BALTIMORE -- Through the first two games of the season, the revamped New York Yankees rotation has posted these unsightly numbers: 14.63 ERA, 17 hits, eight walks, zero strikeouts. Still, after the Yankees 7-5 loss to the Baltimore Orioles, manager Joe Girardi refused to show any signs of panic.
"We have 160 left," he said. "There's a lot of baseball to be played."
There's reason for hope. The Yankees started a season 0-2 for the first time since 1998, when they began 1-4. That team bounced back to finish with 114 victories, then an American League record. This team? Only time will tell.
