All joking and anger aside...

All joking and anger aside, maybe the Yankees needed a game like this.

This is a major wake up call to the organization, as it shows Brian Cashman and friends that the Yankees can't compete with the pitching staff the way it is.

Whether they make trades and/or promote pitchers from within, changes need to be made. And they will be made.

And, please, Michael Kay. Stop screaming on every fly ball the Yankees hit. You would've thought that Alex Rodriguez's home run actually meant something (it was 11-4 at the time).
