Saying "No" To Kyle Lohse

"Don't worry... I'll be back soon."

Despite the fact that Phil Hughes is having some back issues, according to Joel Sherman, the Yankees have no interest in Kyle Lohse.

In the past two years Lohse has a nice ERA of 3.11, but what bothers me most about Kyle is the fact that he doesn't miss any bats (5.72 K/9). If it wasn't for the fact Hughes' back doesn't seem to be a big problem, and the team could easily fill the bottom two spots in the rotation without Phil (Nova and Phelps), then I wouldn't mind Kyle on the cheap. But not only are we talking about a Scott Boras client (guys that rarely come cheap), but signing Lohse would cost a 1st round draft pick too.

So in my opinion this is good news.
