Looking at most leader boards on statistic sites, you cannot find a Yankee starting pitcher anywhere.

Yankee starters are deemed serviceable but not able to go long into games and at least most of the time, give the very good offense a chance to win the game. So imagine the glee of sorts to find a Yankee starter on top of one of a big-time writer’s lists–Keith Law’s list..
In a post last week, Keith Law ranked pitchers with the best pitches in various categories.
