Last year the Yankees starting rotation was no at the level people thought it should be at. With the loss of Andy Pettitte in the regular season left the rotation crippled and now with his retirement the Yankees need a bounce back year from A.J. Burnett (below) who struggled last season. With C.C. Sabathia leading the starters with 21 wins, then Phil Hughes with 18 wins. Last year A.J. Burnett was 10-15 with a 5.26 era. The Yankees signed him to a $16,500,000 contract, so they expect him to produce. A.J. Burnett only had this to say, "I worked out my issues over the summer and hope to have a better year."
