Tide Turners?

After a Yankees win like last night’s, maybe the tide is about to turn, or at least the ebb and flow of the game might help us drift out of last thanks to these developments:

Joba becomes a starter and his tenacity lasts 7 or so innings, firing up a team that has looked a little lackluster to say the least;

Rasner as a stopper? He has pitched 3 games and has been somewhat dominant in a rotation that has been bruised and battered (and regardless of the lack of hits, 6-plus runs or so a night is a b*tch to have to keep overcoming);

Hughes and Kennedy have been as useful as a blow up doll with no open orifices;

A-Rod…maybe that time off was useful…21 games worth. Maybe not, but if he just goes on a tear for the rest of the season, I won’t complain (until he plays like flung monkey poo in the playoffs);

Cano… he may be hitting just over .200, but considering where he was a month ago, I’ll take it;

I’ll also take a nice little 10 wins in a row as well…
