Harper: Hughes' solid relief is just what Joba needs

Sat, 4 Jul 2009 15:44:56 +0000

Phil Hughes hasn't just been a revelation as a late-inning reliever, he's done the impossible: he's essentially put an end to the Great Joba Debate. The issue was always finding another lockdown reliever to get Mariano Rivera the ball.

Another snoozer for Joba

Wed, 1 Jul 2009 11:35:21 +0000

Because of the rain delay, there was less time to write for the newspaper, so I had to pick my spots for interviews after the game A little Girardi, a little Matsui, a little Jeter, some Mo, some Bruney, some Hughes. I passed on Joba because he wasn’t going to be a very big part of ...

Hughes Getting Very Comfortable in the Pen

Wed, 1 Jul 2009 15:20:00 +0000

Here's a quote from Hughes about his new role, via Peter Abraham : "I feel like I have more control, my stuff plays up a little bit," Hughes said. "It feels like a good fit for me. Who's to say what the future will be? Maybe this is what I do for the rest of my career." Still, Hughes sees the ...

No, Watching Al Leiter Pitch Was Boring

Wed, 1 Jul 2009 15:00:00 +0000

PeteAbe this morning on Joba Chamberlain : Frankly, Joba has become boring. The Yankees are 10-5 in the games he starts but he has only six decisions. His ERA is 3.89, which is just OK. He has allowed 79 hits in 81 innings, pretty good. He has 73 strikeouts, not bad. The 40 walks are too much. ...

Here are your links for Friday morning, the last of the week. Enjoy. Tim Marchman had a great piece on 2009's free agent busts so far, calling Edgar Renteria Willy Taveras the worst contracts from the offseason. I love the way that Marchman opens up the piece: Free agency is one of ...

Not a Pretty Win, But Yanks Take Their 6th In A Row

Wed, 1 Jul 2009 14:03:31 +0000

Another game, another win for the Yankees. Doesn't it seem like forever ago that the Yanks were losing some awful games to the Nationals and Marlins? Well after looking so bad just a little over a week ago, the Yankees have now turned out a 6 game winning streak and are back to within 2.5 games ...

Mariano Rivera is honored, while Joba may be becoming 'boring'

Wed, 1 Jul 2009 14:09:00 +0000

Is Mariano Rivera the player most beloved by his peers throughout baseball? It sure sounds like it, especially given all the accolades Rivera received after getting his 500th save . Heck, Squawker Jon's favorite Yankee - or, more to the point, the only Yankee he actually likes - is Mariano. ...

It Comes Full Circle

Wed, 1 Jul 2009 05:30:00 +0000

After the hour long rain delay and amusing awkwardness of the National Anthem , the Yankees brought out Mariano Rivera to throw out the first pitch. Perhaps our friend and first pitch aficionado Josh at Jorge Says N0! could answer this question: When was the last time an active player threw ...

Yankees Keep The Winning Streak Alive With 8-5 Victory Over Mariners

Wed, 1 Jul 2009 03:18:00 +0000

Once I saw that the start of tonight's game was going to be delayed by rain, I had no intention of blogging after it ended. But it was a great win so how could I not? The team pulled Brian Bruney's ass out of the fire. He came in and absolutely sucked but the boys picked him up with some late ...

Yanks' Grit it Out Against Mariners (postgame notes 30 June 2009)

Wed, 1 Jul 2009 03:28:00 +0000

Given that Mariano Rivera threw out tonight's ceremonial first pitch and that Joba Chamberlain was starting, it is perhaps not surprising that in the end it came down to the bullpen. Joba Chamberlain started, and while he wasn't horrible in any sense of the word, he also wasn't very good, or ...
