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 ...
Where have you gone, Joba Chamberlain?
riveraveblues.com 7/11/2009 — Following a stellar eight-inning appearance in Cleveland on June 1, Joba Chamberlain seemed to be on the verge of a run. He had allowed just four hits and two walks while winning his third decision of the year. His ERA sat at 3.71, and he had reached ...
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. 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 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. There are no excuses for it either. Do you guys realize what Joba said after the game?
He said…
“I did a good job today, I ...

The Pitch F/X chart of Joba’s fastball velocity over time. (Click to enlarge in a new window)
As Joba Chamberlain skyrocketed his way through the Yankee organization as a starter, the book on him was velocity. During his 2006 appearance ...
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 ...
Joba rules, does he?
newyorksportsjerk.blogspot.com 7/15/2009 — So, how's that "Joba Chamberlain the future ace" thing working out? Good? The standard argument used by people who have dug in on that side of the Joba debate is that you'd rather have him throw 200 innings than the 80 he'd get out of the bullpen. ...
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 ...
Nice Start Joba
nybaseballdigest.com 7/30/2009 — Joba dominated the Rays and credit is deserved for a well pitched start. I’ve been very critical of Joba, but I will acknowledge when he does pitch well. He managed to bring it all together last night showing impeccable control, location, and the ability to keep hitters off balance.
I ...
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 ...
Joba…joba…JoBa…J-O-B-A…..
nyyankeesrumors.com 6/19/2009 — Joba Chamberlain
Settle down now. This isn’t necessarily a post bashing Joba, but I believe he could be used in a better role this season.
When Joba first started making starts last season I have to say that I got really excited. From what we saw out of the bullpen, and his ...
