How does having all these Rule-5 guys affect the Norfolk Express? I don't quite understand Rule-5, but my understanding is with these guys taking up roster spots Buck would not have the same flexibility to bring up fresh arms as he would with other potential starters/long relievers.
I do think the Yankees rotation has question marks.

Yeah, they'll soak up roster spots if they make the trip North. I think with their pen having guys with options they'll continue the tradition. If they don't get starters it will be a necessity as the bullpen gets worn down late in the season.
Still 49 down at Spring Training so it's about time for a sizeable cut to happen.
