thats irrelevant......it wasnt a trade to get him. it was cash, which since baseball dosent have a salary cap is of no importance to the yankees (as you know). no matter how old he is, he was one of the top pitchers in the nl last year from the date he came back to the end of the season, if he shows half of that hes better than the yankees 4th and 5th starters as it stands now.
not only that but their young talent now has pettite, moose, and clemens to teach them the ropes for the years to come.
