Official N.Y. Yankees 2011 SEASON THREAD y-(97-65) Vol. We'll be in the Off-season thread =/

Joba went from elite next starter, to the next Mo to now nothing...

 

[ruffrydya08]

Feel bad for Joba, I know our management of him probably has little to do with this current injury but he was never allowed to fail, which is probably one of the most unfair things that could be done to a baseball player. I don't think he could have been great but he has and could have continued to be a very important part of our pen moving forward.

Can't believe I'm praying for rain tonight so I don't have to worry about watching both games, but yes, praying for a rain out

EDIT

damn...

I’m going to have to make this pretty quick because I still have a ton of interview stuff to listen through and a lot of words to write for the newspaper. You already know the basics: A dye contrast MRI today showed that Joba Chamberlain has a torn ligament in his right elbow. Chamberlain said he broke down in tears soon after hearing the news.

It’s not certain that Chamberlain will have Tommy John surgery, but that seems unavoidable. The MRI results are being sent to Dr. James Andrews.

Chamberlain and the Yankees are perplexed. He never felt the ligament tear and his only symptom is some tightness after throwing. Chamberlain’s velocity has been good and he’s been able to throwing breaking balls, which usually cause pitchers considerable pain when they need Tommy John. Chamberlain also has no problem doing little things — opening a door, twisting off the cap of a water bottle — which usually cause some discomfort for Tommy John candidates.

“Joba must have a high pain threshold,

The Yankees need to make some moves. Pitching is the biggest liability. Having Joba out now certainly doesn't help.
