Yankees prospects

A few links to provide some perspective on the Yankees' future:

• Baseball America, polled the Double-A managers to find out which prospects had the best tools. 22 categories were surveyed and the Yanks scored in two. Best defensive shortstop--Ramiro Pena and best defensive outfielder-Austin Jackson.
• More from Baseball America, as they ask a tough question, regarding Ian Kennedy: "But the question now is: Was 2007, when he carved up minor league hitters and went 1-0, 1.89 in three September starts, an aberration?
• I don't want to think about this: "For the future well being of the Yankees, it is more important for Phil Hughes to pitch in the majors during September than for Pavano to make his starts. Hughes will be with the team for the next several years and needs the experience. Pavano will probably be in St. Louis or on the West Coast.
  The fact that Brian Cashman informed Pavano of Saturday’s start shows that Joe Girardi has no control whatsoever in regards to who he has on the team and who should play.
  Those days of managers dictating what type of team they want are long gone. It’s not out of the question that Cashman tells Girardi when to take out pitchers and when to put aging players in center field."
• Here's a scouting report on Joba's mechanics and something else I don't want to think about: " It seems the tendonitis resulted from overuse, likely from the transition of relieving to starting."
