Report: Nova To Start Game 2 of ALDS
Tim Kurkjian reports (ESPN Insider required) that according to a Yankees source, "Nova is going to get Game 2." That same source, also said that they "can't see Burnett getting a start."
Not too surprising. Nova has been the Yankees second best starter, and unlike Colon and Garcia, hasn't struggled down the stretch. Burnett, well, he's a disaster, and at this point there's no reason why the Yankees should trust him in a big game. I know most fans share that same lack of faith.
