All eyes on Eiland

I've been harshly critical of Mr. Eiland so far this year. We're only 13 games in and already I've had several posts devoted to his perceived shortcomings.

And I'm not done. Today we learned that Wang is leaving the team to "work out his mechanics" in Florida. That's not good. That's what the OFF SEASON is for. That's what SPRING TRAINING is for. That's what REHAB is for. You don't break up the rotation in the middle of April, especially with the Red Sox looming on the horizon.

The list is getting longer and longer: Hughes, Kennedy, Igawa, Wang, Chamberlain, and now CC Sabathia. All have experienced a decline in performance since Eiland took over. Coincidence?
