Andy Pettitte, drafted in 1990, is the lone lefty. Kei Igawa was a mistake. So is thinking righty Edwar Ramirez can be the "lefty" specialist because of his dynamic changeup. Billy Traber joined Mike Myers, Felix Heredia, Buddy Groom and C.J. Nitkowski as recently imported lefty specialists who were far from special. The Yanks have undervalued the species, hoping to get lucky with someone rather than prioritizing it. Frankly, with a win-now, $200 million payroll, I would rather have Pittsburgh's Damaso Marte or Baltimore's George Sherrill than Kennedy. Not because I don't value Kennedy. But back-of-the-rotation righties can be found (heck, the Yanks took Rasner off their 40-man roster in the winter). But lefty relievers with a successful track record are rare. Not having one has made the Yanks vulnerable to, say, David Ortiz for years. Marte and Sherrill should be available. The Yankees have been linked to Colorado's Brian Fuentes and always have liked the White Sox's Matt Thornton. But if I could not get Marte or Sherrill, I would think younger and more versatile by seeing if I could funnel prospects to San Francisco for Jonathan Sanchez or offense to the Dodgers for Hong-Chih Kuo, either of whom could relieve or, especially in the case of Sanchez, start. --
