Olney Tweeted this about Joba Chamberlain:
Based on roster surplus and thin relief market, it wouldn't be a surprise at all if NYY swapped Joba Chamberlain sometime before July 31.

Again, did you learn anything you really haven't already kind of thought about on your own? Do you feel smarter? Are you "inside baseball" now? Probably not. Yankee fans like Joba, but it's clear the writings on the wall and we all kind of know it. Joba gets attacked continually by the New York Sports media...anything he does is amplified... much like Alex Rodriguez. Couple that with that report earlier this year about the Rangers scouting him out (Read HERE) and all arrows point toward the door for Joba. Should he be traded? Who the hell knows, I'm not going to try and fake it. I do know this, if the Yankees need an extra bat, more catching, more starting pitching, it may not be a bad idea, but that's an educated guess.
Buster Olney means well. I don't want BYB fans ripping on the guy, but welcome to the show Captain Obvious... seriously.
On another subject... the Yanks need to win one tonight... who's with me?
