Doubt it. Yanks have Ivan Nova. Yankee fans have said this guy is a stud pitcher. They also have that other stud in AJ Burnett and Phil Hughes. If they resign Pettite, look out. :hat

Eh, Petite is getting up in years. AJ Burnett is decent, but I wouldn't put him at the elite level of Lincecum or Halladay. And the Red Sox lineup is going to be monstrous, with speed in the early part of the lineup, tons of OPS, and power in the 4-6 slots. (And Saltalamacchia is probably batting ninth... so 1-8 are strong lol)

Ivan Nova may be a stud, but rookie pitchers usually struggle a bit in their first year or two. Let's face it, the Red Sox/Yankee rivalry is as intense as any other in American sports, and that's a big stage to boot. Pressure can get to even the best pitchers at times.
