Baseball season is about to start, and as such, teams are trotting out their staff aces with hopes of getting a win on opening day. For the New York Yankees, this means Carl Pavano is starting.

"Carl Pavano will be the New York Yankees' Opening Day starter.

Pavano hasn't pitched in the majors since June 2005 due to a variety of injuries. He will be followed in the rotation by Andy Pettitte, Mike Mussina and Kei Igawa. The fifth starter spot has not been filled.

New York manager Joe Torre made the announcement Friday. "

The collective Red Sox fans of the world jointly issued the following statement in response to Torre's announcement:
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA-
