Wash Cycle

Jarrod Washburn was claimed on waivers, and the Mariners will try to work a deal by Thursday afternoon:

The Yankees were not the team that claimed Washburn, sources say. They had interest in the pitcher before the July 31 non-waiver deadline, but consider their hitting to be a greater problem than their starting pitching.

The White Sox, another team in need of starting pitching, have indicated that they do not consider Washburn a fit.

Could Texas have claimed him?

The Yankees "consider their hitting to be a greater problem than their starting pitching"?

Whaaaaaa????

They've got Mussina, Pettitte, and Pray, and they don't see the rotation as their biggest problem? That's just incredibly stupid.
