Game 141: Sweep?

Tampa Bay Rays at New York Yankees, Sep 9, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
The Yanks have a chance for the four-game sweep as Joba Chamberlain takes the hill.
Will he go more than three innings tonight? After the new Joba Rules were instituted, in which he would build his pitch count back up, he's thrown 35 and 59 pitches (respectively) in two starts since, but has only managed three innings each time.
If his limit was 60 last time, he should be allowed to go about 80-85 pitches tonight.
The good news is that in Joba's two career starts against Tampa, he's looked like the potential ace he might be one day: 14 ip, 3 er, 8 h, 3 bb, 9 k.
This will be Jeff Niemann's second career start against the Bombers. Control was his problem in the first game (back in May) when he lasted just 3.2 innings and walked four (with two earned runs).

Typical Joba
what happened to the Joba of after the All-Star Break? Then the Yankees start messing with him and he sucks! And idea to the Yankees? LET HIM PITCH!

+1
They fucked him up. I don’t understand these 3 inning games they make no fucking sense. He was on fire after the break.
by Yankz09 on Sep 9, 2009 7:20 PM EDT via mobile up reply actions 0 recs
another thing I don't understand
if they’re only letting him go 3 innings, then why doesn’t Joba dial it up? If you’re not throwing a real start, then blow it by them at 97 miles an hour! Then, he might be able to avoid giving up runs during his short time pitching. If he’s only going 3 innings, then at least don’t give up 2-3 runs a start!

they screwed him up from the beginning....
starting him off in the rotation and not limiting him early on made this a reality now. They had him on the limit to begin with, so the fact he wasn’t on the leash to start off with, made it a ticking time bomb.

Second start after the break
against Oakland I believe. Unless you count that mini fist pump in his start against the Red Sox.

There it is
well, he struck out the side. Thats also typical Joba. He started throwing harder as the inning went on.
by nyyrocks29 on Sep 9, 2009 7:25 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Joba is awful
Hes not a major league pitcher anymore… they need to stop this pathetic display he presents when he toes the rubber…he throws a 93 mph perfectly straight, what most batters would love to hit against, fast ball… he cant locate a slider to save his life and if he does its low 80s and teeeeeeeeeeeee off time is soon to happen.
by darms21 on Sep 9, 2009 7:25 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Yeah I mean he only struck out the side
Dude. Calm the eff down.
by HappyLuckyGoldenDragonNumber1! on Sep 9, 2009 7:26 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
ok relax
he just struck out the side. He hasn’t been pitching well of late, but we know he can pitch well and dominant in the majors. He’s in a pitching slump, which hasn’t been helped with the Yanks “inning limit”

They said they was doing it…and going along with it.
I don;t know how much he’s helping the team, but the idea is to help Joba. Joba’s on the innings limit and they are controling it.
As for idiotic….Ace says your wrong.
What the f$%k is the internet?
by FreeBradshaw on Sep 9, 2009 8:15 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
how do they expect him to give them anything in the playoffs if he's throwing just 3 innings a game?
I wouldn’t have a problem with it if they just did this a couple times and started to build him up, but this is the third straight start he’s gone just 3 innings! And just 55 pitches? He was starting to get on a roll, and they should have let him pitch.
I don’t have a problem with Ace, but Joba should still be in this game.
by nyyrocks29 on Sep 9, 2009 8:16 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I agree
He should have had 2 more innings or 85 pitches which ever came first
by HappyLuckyGoldenDragonNumber1! on Sep 9, 2009 8:20 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I have not much of a clue what they are doing...
but Id assume they’ll stretch him out in the next few starts. Id think he has at least 4 starts, maybe 5, before the playoffs begin.
Remember, the other options were completely shut him down or continue with the once every 10 days thing (skip start).
I don’t like it, it looks dumb and is frustrating. But the idea is that he starts every 5 days while still controlling his innings.
No one really knows if its gonna work out. I think they should have done this in the beginning of the season….but what do I know.
What the f$%k is the internet?
by FreeBradshaw on Sep 9, 2009 8:20 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah only give him 3 innings

What the f$%k is the internet?
by FreeBradshaw on Sep 9, 2009 8:24 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Its obvious
He keeps hitting mid 90 fastballs all over the place. He is over throwing and he has no control.
by HappyLuckyGoldenDragonNumber1! on Sep 9, 2009 8:26 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
?
I saw less control with the 91-93 mph..he wasn’t locating out the gate.
In the 2nd and 3rd he looked like the Joba post ASB, hitting 95 and had the 87 mph slider, hitting all sorts of spots.
95 is not overthrowing for Joba…he was doing that at 110 pitches in the 7th innings in those starts he went that long.
What the f$%k is the internet?
by FreeBradshaw on Sep 9, 2009 8:28 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Well I guess its another OPINION disagreement
I think he is overthrowing knowing he has a strict inning limit and he wants to strike out every batter.

Anyone think
that Nady getting hurt was a blessing in disguise? I like Nady but I’m not sure he would do what Swisher has done this year. Swisher has more pop and is better at getting on base than Nady was.

we'll never know...
I for one liked Nady better, but the way Swisher has played this year it really must be a blessing.
Im glad he isn’t our starting 1B…so the real blessing was getting Tex and not trading Swish once we got Tex.

Next all-time Yankee record broken by Jeter?
(Based on yesterday’s totals)
R: Babe Ruth – 1,959 / DJ – 1,564
2B: Lou Gehrig – 534 / DJ – 436
SB: Rickey Henderson – 326 / DJ – 299
by BigSlim on Sep 9, 2009 9:31 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
All should be eventually....
He has 26 more to go on the SB (he had one today…), so next year if he continues this he could get that.
The others…..the 2B is at least 2 years away, and the R probably 4 or 5…that’s a lot of runs scored.
