Yanks win, but their starter doesn't do the best Joba
subwaysquawkers.blogspot.com 7/6/2009 — Is Sunday's game over yet? What a long, long game, especially the first few innings. Were Joba Chamberlain and Toronto pitcher Brett Cecil competing in a Steve Trachsel pitch-alike contest? Sheesh.

Joba the But
passion4baseball.blogspot.com 7/20/2009 — Watched the Yankees game yesterday against the Tigers on MLB.tv and it was a great game...unless you are a Tigers' fan.

What if Joba Chamberlain isn't a starter?
lennysyankees.com 7/11/2009 — I have always been a supporter of Joba Chamberlain in the rotation, but it's hard to hold my ground when he gets bombed every night.

Joba's Poor Starts Concern For Team
puristbleedspinstripes.com 7/6/2009 — In this post over at River Ave Blues, writer Mike Axisa argues that Joba's poor starts of late, coupled with his postgame interviews in which he admitted to no wrongdoing, are unforgivable sins and that Joba should be sent back down to AAA. To me, this smacks of a knee-jerk type reaction. Yes, ...

Joba is not a starter right now
nyyankeesrumors.com 7/6/2009 — Joba Chamberlain We all thought Joba Chamberlain was a starter, but as of right now he has shown us nothing but mediocrity since joining the rotation.

Goat of The Week: Joba Chamberlain — Bleacher Report - MLB 7/8/2009
This week's goat is Joba the Arrogant. The guy has had trouble all season with consistency, and Sunday's start against the Blue Jays was his worst Mr. Hyde impression. Joba gave up eight runs off nine hits over three and two-thirds innings, while ...
