A.J. Burnett is 14-3 for a playoff team.
The Yankees are paying most of his salary.
Which is fine. Most would agree that Burnett could not handle New York. For the Yankees, getting rid of Burnett was addition by subtraction.
But, still ...
If the Yankees pay his salary ...
And the Pirates actually end up in the World Series vs. the Yankees ...
Can't the Yankees, like ... well, I don't know ... can't the Yankees at least get a refund?
Is it impossible for Burnett to come back and beat the Yankees in the playoffs? It's an unlikely nightmare scenario for sure, but don't forget that Kenny Rogers did it in 2006.
