Vudu Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Yanks & last years division winners Tampa Bay meet up for 4 @ the Stadium.

Garza (4-4, 3.67) Chamberlain (3-1, 3.71) Sunday VS. Sonnanstine (4-5, 7.07) Burnett (4-2, 4.69) Monday VS.

mbn007 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Yankees need at least 2 of 3 before Monday. That matchup bothers me, unless Andy gets pain-free real fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otter Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 The bullpen will keep wetting the bed unless they make a trade or move Joba back to the bullpen. I'm crossing my fingers that Bruney and Marte come back healthy and effective. Even if they do the Yankees need to bring in someone else. I'm just not sure what reliever will become available. The Yankees are determined to make Joba a starter, even though he would be a lockdown reliever. Maybe if they get into the playoffs they will come to their senses and put him in the pen.

PS17 Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 No, you gotta start Joba the rest of the year. If we have an effective 4 man rotation in October, and the bullpen still sucks, then put him in the pen for the Playoffs. But I think it wouldn't be smart to put him back into the bullpen.

But its a helluva lot smarter keeping him out but losing winnable games ...Only thing keeping the Yankees from being the best team in baseball is the ****ty bullpen. Joba should go back.

If we have an effective 4 man rotation in October, and the bullpen still sucks, then put him in the pen for the Playoffs. But I think it wouldn't be smart to put him back into the bullpen. The Yankees won championships in the 90's because of their bullpen. I can't even count how many times they were tied or behind going into the sixth or seventh inning and they ended up winning the game. Their relievers would come in and not give up any runs, allowing the offense to chip away and eventually win the game. The greatest example of this was in 96 Game 4 against the Braves. The Yanks were down 6-0 in the fifth and Rivera, Graeme Lloyd, Jeff Nelson and Wettland kept the Braves scoreless for the rest of the game. The Yanks chipped away, tied the game and won in extra innings. Joba is a shutdown reliever, it's been proven that he can do the job. Team him up with Bruney, Aceves, Marte (if he steps it up) and Rivera at the end and you've got a bullpen that get the job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
