The latest Joba news
- Johnny Damon questions Joba Chamberlain's move out of bullpen (Daily News)
- Leaky pen with Joba a starter (Newsday)
- A turning point in Chamberlain's career (NY Times)
I guess everybody has to take sides on this huh? Isn't there some way to stretch him out as a long reliever and keep him in the pen but spot start him every 10 days or so? If you can let Chamberlain pitch the 7th and 8th innings (maybe even the 6th on occasion) and turn the ball over Rivera the game is basically over in the 6th inning. But by using Joba for more inning less frequently he should be available to start should the Yankees suffer an injury in the rotation or they really need a spark. Doesn't that make more sense than starting him every 5 days when opponents know he's always going to be on some sort of pitch count?
Well that's my take on that, and yaameen.
