Yankees Go With Javier Vasquez Instead Of Joel Pineiro

In many ways their decision came down to Javier Vazquez in a trade or Joel Pineiro in free agency. Yes, the Mets are most often associated with Pineiro since they actually bid on the righty, but the Yanks were intrigued by the new, sinkerball version of Pineiro. They did fret, though, if he was a creation of Cardinals pitching guru Dave Duncan and whether he had enough stuff to navigate the AL East.
