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. He had a four-run lead against a diminished Angels lineup last night , and then fell apart in the fifth inning. He has never gotten into a groove this season and ...
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. The big story of the game was not that the Yankees won the game 2-1 on two solo homers by Teixeira and A-Rod. The story was that Joba Chamberlain had a very good game and Phil ...
Time For A Reality Check
riveraveblues.com 7/6/2009 — Even though the Yanks walked away with a win yesterday, neophyte righthander Joba Chamberlain labored through yet another start, struggling with his command and failing to put hitters away with two strikes. After the game Joba said he thought he did ...
What's The Deal With Joba?
slidingintohome.blogspot.com 7/11/2009 — Joba Chamberlain has been anything but impressive in his first full season as a starter. So far in 17 starts this year he's just 4-2 with a 4.25 ERA. Joba seems to understand he's struggling although at times he seems to be pretty clueless about his own performances. Following last night's ...
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. It's a good thing that Alfredo Aceves pitched a four-inning save, completely shutting down the ...
To Start, or Not to Start…
yanksgoyard.com 7/7/2009 — Well I jinxed it. I stopped writing about the Yankees and they win 10 of 11. I come back and they lose a heartbreaker, 7-6. I’m a jinx.
What? She was named Jinx...it's a stretch, but don't complain
Actually, that’s not entirely accurate. The game was a heartbreaker only because the ...
A stroll down Joba Lane: Starts 6 through 10
riveraveblues.com 7/16/2009 — Yesterday we took a gander at Joba Chamberlain’s first five starts . The idea is to take look at his control (though not necessarily his command), pitch breakdown, and velocity to see if we can find any trends. Yesterday’s installment ...
When is Joba Chamberlain going to get his attitude adjustment?
subwaysquawkers.blogspot.com 7/11/2009 — Note to Joba Chamberlain - nobody wants to hear about how the other team has good hitters. Especially when two of the Angels' best hitters - Vladimir Guerrero and Torii Hunter, are on the disabled list. In addition to the long slog Joba games have become, it's getting frustrating seeing him give ...

A stroll down Joba Lane: First five starts
riveraveblues.com 7/16/2009 — No player on the Yankees this season has taken up as much of our time as Joba Chamberlain . Sure, A-Rod has his his non-drama that everyone pays attention to, Posada had the whole thing where he couldn’t call a game for a while, and Burnett had ...
The Joba Theory--Explained and Expanded
puristbleedspinstripes.com 7/17/2009 — Many of you saw the post I wrote last night, in which, with the help of a couple of Mets fans, I arrived at a very, very simple conclusion for the pitching woes of Joba Chamberlain. Now that I've had a night to sleep on it, I thought I'd go and expand it, mention some caveats and correct some ...
