Francesa Takes Another Look At The Joba Rules
Confession: I'm a Yankees fan, which gives me, like any other Yankees fan, the right to opine about the best interest of Joba Chamberlain's arm. Mike Francesa's also a Yankees fan, and he hosts a radio show, which, apparently, makes him doubly passionate about the precocious righty. More »

Joba Chamberlain Will Not Tolerate Any Strip Club Heckling
I have no idea how Alex Rodriguez is not involved in this story, but here goes. Remember how Joba Chamberlain was nailed for DUI at 1 a.m. on Sunday in his hometown of Lincoln, Nebraska? Here are the inspiring details of that evening, which ended with our portly hero being pulled over for speeding in a 2006 BMW 750i and clocking a .134 blood alcohol level, which I believe is higher than Morgan Ensberg's batting average. It turns out that Joba was at a strip club for a good portion of the night, and stormed out drunk after an altercation with a Red Sox fan. Man, can't a Yankee enjoy an evening at his favorite nudie joint without a Sox fan heckling him? I mean, come on. More »

Joba Chamberlain's Aching Shoulder May Have Officially Killed The Yankees' Post-Season Hopes
The above photo was taken a few weeks ago when Yankees' ace Joba Chamberlain popped into random Dunkin' Donuts in Manhattan to serve cold coffee-like beverages to unsuspecting customers. Maybe that's how he tweaked his shoulder. The 22-year-old ace-in-training is getting it looked at by Birmingham, Alabama specialist Dr. James Andrews, who is usually the last resort for damaged pitchers. The Yankees' haven't said that Chamberlain's MRI scans revealed any serious damage, but the speculation is that if he's seeing Andrews, the outlook is not good. Chamberlain will miss his next scheduled start. If the Yankees' do have to shelve Chamberlain for a significant period of time, they'll probably call up Ian Kennedy to replace him. More »

Joba Rules Fenway
The Yankees came into Boston on a six-game winning streak and in the end Mariano Rivera kept it alive. Joba Chamberlain dominated the Red Sox lineup for seven shutout innings, striking out nine while allowing just three hits. Kyle Farnsworth did his best to fuck things up in the eighth when he gave up a pair of quick hits before being pulled in favor of Rivera. The closer came on for the five-out save, inducing a pop-up from David Ortiz and striking out three batters, including the game's final two. Jason Giambi's infield single produced the game's only run, scoring Bobby Abreu from third base in the third inning off of Josh Beckett. More »

Joba Would Like To Take Off the Training Wheels Now
Until Hank Steinbrenner can get Dayan Viciedo signed, five innings of Joba Chamberlain are going to have to do. Chamberlain, who was lambasted by critics and audiences alike in his first starting role last week, came back with a slightly stronger effort on Sunday to lead the Yankees over the Royals 6-3, although he had a no-decision. Yeah, those Royals, who have lost 17 of 20. So is all the enthusiasm shown in the photo here really warranted? More » -

The Joy And Despair Of Two New York Pitching Debuts
So as we check in this morning on the great city and state of New York, we see much wailing and gnashing of teeth over the daring Joba-Chamberlain-as-a-starter experiment (he flew too close to the sun on mashed potato wings), and great rejoicing over the return of Pedro Martinez. Joba lasted just 2 1/3 innings in a loss to the Blue Jays, and Martinez looked solid in a win over the Giants ... although he was pitching against Barry Zito and got nine runs of support. So factor that in. More »

Goose Gossage Has Had Enough Of Your Tomfoolery
I guess we're somewhat removed from the era in which Rich "Goose" Gossage dominated baseball; well, when he dominated the final three innings of it, anyway. The closer really hadn't been perfected until Gossage came along, and the game hasn't been the same since. Although the Hall of Famer spent just six of his 22 major league seasons with the Yankees (1978-83), that's where he enjoyed his best years, and it's obvious that his first allegiance will always be in New York. And as Yankee Badass Emeritus, he has a few words for current relief Wunderkind Joba Chamberlain. More »

Joba Chamberlain Makes Clumsy Pass At Erin Andrews, Becomes Mortal (WITH UPDATE)
Actually I have no idea what the Yankees' Joba Chamberlain said to Erin Andrews at the conclusion of their interview on Wednesday, but whatever it was, Andrews was obviously repulsed. You can check out the video here and judge for yourself. Man, it looks like she just ate a bug. So then can it just be coincidence that Chamberlain suffered his first career loss the next day, giving up the winning run in the ninth in the White Sox's 7-6 victory? Joe Crede's run-scoring single won it. More » -
