It’s no secret that A.J. Burnett isn’t the best pitcher on the Yankees.
He is 8-9 this season with a 4.60 ERA.
He hasn’t won a game for the Yankees since June 29th (that’s seven starts without a win). He’s given up at least three runs in his last seven starts, and in four of those he was pulled before the sixth inning. Not to mention AJ has not had one start this season where he has not given up a run.
But is he the worst on the Yankees rotation and not even good enough for the five spot? Or is AJ just not the pitcher he was two years ago?
