Boston has no bullpen or closer and are hoping Schilling can return to his old form. He MIGHT be washed up. Baltimore has nothing. Tampa has nothing. Toronto has a little pitching but nothing special and not as good as the Yanks pitching.
I'm not going to start analyzing the pitching in the AL East since I don't care at this point, but the way this team is constructed, the division championship obviously isn't the goal. The White Sox have better pitching. The Indians could. The Athletics do. The Angels might. These are all teams to be concerned about, because they're more complete than New York right now. Of course, if Steinbrenner gets a bug up a particular orifice for Barry Zito and decides that he'll trade whomever to get him, you might have a different story.
