Up and Down

Javier Vazquez had a good outing today, shutting out the Royals for seven innings despite walking four. Over his last 12 starts, he's had a pattern of okay and bad starts (I don't want to quantify the up starts as good). So who's the real Javy? The guy who can go six or seven giving up 3 or 4 runs, or the guy who gets bombed in the early innings and leaves the bull pen to mop up? The Yankees can win with the mediocre up guy. But they need Vazquez to do that consistently.

Javy looked not so good early on, I think pitching against the Royals helped a whole lot.
