Yanks' Farnsworth almost inspires confidence

The Yankees' new, old, eight inning guy got the job done Saturday against the Mets. Apparently, a couple of distinguised members of the Bombers' bloggers aren't convinced it's the bridge to the future:



"I have to be honest, I was sweating the bottom of the 8th inning. Yanks up by just one, the Mets 2-3-4 hitters coming to the plate, and Kyle Farnsworth pitching. Man, General Joe has the guts of a burglar…either that, or, he really does think that Farnsworth is a capable pitcher…"--Was Watching.

"How many of you died with Kyle Farnsworth pitching the eighth in a one-run game? That the Mets had up their middle-of-the-lineup guys just made it worse. While Farnsworth came through in a very high leverage situation, if ever there is a time to go to your best reliever for a two-inning save, that was it."--River Ave Blues

Ye of little faith.
