Yankees Mailbag: Pitching depth, prospect grades, and grass seed

Good afternoon everyone, it’s time to dive back into the mailbag and answer some of your questions. Remember to send in your questions for our weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com.

Jonathan S. asks: If Germán is now the No. 5 and Schmidt the No. 6 starting pitchers, who are Nos. 7-10? We know from experience that it can take 10 starting pitchers to get through a season, and the bad part of the Montas trade (besides him being Carl Pavano 2.0) is that we gave up some of those potential 7-10 pitchers.
