    Why would you even say that?

    Nady has been awesome. Marte is good, but he's like Ramirez, get a few outs, then hit the showers. Neither is reliable in a second inning of work. I wouldn't call him bad though.

    What else is Cashman's fault? Joba's shoulder tightening up? Rasner not being an elite starter?

    It's unreal how much blame Cashman receives, all while ignoring what he does right.

    Im anti-cash as most of you know. However, I cant say anything close to bad about his last couple weeks...theyve been his best moves in a long long while.

    i cant wait to read your negativity again jonny. I've missed the broken record schpeel(sp?) that you put on every game we lose.

    So Joba's injury sounds serious. I guess they don't know how to handle their pitchers after all. That will only come as a surprise to a few here.

    New York Yankees pitcher Joba Chamberlain will be examined by noted orthopedic surgeon Dr. James Andrews on Wednesday after undergoing an MRI on his ailing right shoulder.

    http://www.sportsline.com/mlb/story/10920185

    Chamberlain returned to New York for tests on his shoulder Tuesday. The team said before its game against the Texas Rangers that it would not reveal the results of the MRI exam until Chamberlain is seen by Andrews in Birmingham, Ala.

    Saw that..... I don't care for the guy and his antics but you never wanna see a young kid like Joba having arm or shoulder issues. Hopefully it's nothing too serious and just a precautionary visit.

    i bet its the latter. You dont feel tightness in your arm and continue to throw 96 if you have serious shoulder issues.

    I don't know enough about throwing mechanics but I don't want speculate either but what you said seems to make sense.

    Don's just here for background noise. We know he's there, but we never pay much attention to him. If we did, we'd drive ourselves crazy trying to figure him out.

    God, this is so pathetic. Can we go back to being the team that actually scares other teams and their fans, please?
