		<description><![CDATA[Not this time MacDougal is done, gone, finished and the Yankees have Rothchild as pitching coach, same guy that never was able to make Kerry Wood a dominant pitcher, made Prior pitch 100X time towel drills than innings totally missused the guy (if he is or was such a GURU) and totally did absolutely nothing to aid Carlos Mármol&#039;s mechanics, control etc. He was there because his ties to Hendry that&#039;s why the are both in NY not by performance and leadership. Glad they&#039;re gone.

I diagress MacDougal got nothing left, another one that flamed out (Paul Wilson, Ben MacDonald, etc) without reaching it potencial another scout, GM and ownership headache.]]></description>
