He has a team that will score runs and pitching in Yankee Stadium is a plus for a lefty.

You can't win the Cy Young if you are out half the year with a knee injury.

RJ has somewhat of a history with a bad knee and he has a real bad history with back injuries. Although he is one hell of a pitcher (as we all know), being on the wrong side of 40, having a history of injuries (he usually played through them), and playing in cold weather for fairly long stretches of the season could lead to bad things for RJ.

However if he does stay healthy, I agree he'll win the CY Young again

I think he will have a couple of challenges:

1. cold weather
2. his rehab/training guru's are in Phoenix
3. new york media
4. new york fans
5. no where to hide
6. boston fans
7. age
8. a knee that gets filled with gel
9. bad back
10. had to cut hair and facial hair off
