I'm beginning to wonder if the Yanks will ever figure out how to use Joba Chamberlain. He came out of the game with the White Sox today after 3 innings and 35 pitches.

Of course, I'm old school and long for the days of pitchers throwing 12-15 complete games a year or more.

He seems like nothing but a bunch of hype to me. The media's been covering this guy like he was the next great pitcher in the game and I don't see it.
