NEW YORK -- The issue, at least for a time, seemed dead. But when Jorge
Posada stated Monday afternoon that he envisioned Joba Chamberlain as a
reliever, he ignited a new wave of controversy surrounding the Yankees'
brightest young pitcher.
"I'm so tired of it," Chamberlain said. "And it's going to be that way.
People are going to have an argument or have a say about it, because I was
successful as a starter during the year and I was successful in the bullpen.
So it's going to be an argument until we finally figure out where I'm going
to stay forever."
Chamberlain's remarks came in response to those of Posada, who earlier in the
day told reporters in Manhattan that he pictured the 22-year-old Chamberlain
pitching out of the bullpen.
"I see him as a reliever," Posada said. "I think his body is made up for a
reliever. He's 22 years old. I don't think he's going to be able to put in
that workload of having 200 [innings] every year, even at a young age."
The issue has been a touchy one for the Yankees since Chamberlain burst onto
the bullpen scene last August. Working almost exclusively with a plus
fastball and a sharp, breaking slider, Chamberlain dominated the American
League out of the 'pen down the stretch. His assignment there, however, came
only in deference to strict innings limits that New York had imposed upon him.
Chamberlain had been a starter his entire life, and so the Yankees announced
this May that they would shift him back into the rotation -- a plan that
lasted until he suffered a bout of right rotator cuff tendinitis in early
August. Along the way, Chamberlain's 3-1 record and 2.76 ERA as a starter
convinced critics that he could handle the job, but his shoulder woes --
especially viewed in conjunction with an injury-plagued college and Minor
League career -- sparked concern that he could not endure so many innings.
The issue lay dormant as Chamberlain remained inactive, and following his
reinstatement from the disabled list, Chamberlain settled back into the
bullpen and produced a 1.80 ERA in four outings.
Overall this season, he is 4-3 with a 2.59 ERA in 12 starts and 24 relief
appearances.
"It's going to be what's best for the team in the long run," Chamberlain
said. "But it's your career. And you have to be a part of it. You have to
take action and understand that you do what's best for yourself, but the end
goal is to win a championship."
Posada on Monday became the first teammate to offer a direct opinion on the
issue, stating his preference that Chamberlain remain in the bullpen. And
given Posada's status as one of the longest-tenured Yankees, his opinions
carry weight -- even if New York is not likely to act upon them.
"I think it's too early to discuss that," manager Joe Girardi said. "We're
going to get through this year, and then we'll sit down. Some of it depends
on the offseason and what happens in the offseason. But for right now, we
still envision him as a starter."
"He's been around the game, but that's his opinion," Chamberlain said of
Posada. "I'm not going to fault the guy for having an opinion. We all have
our own opinions."
Posada認為Joba明年應該要留在牛棚，而不是擔任先發，這樣對他的傷勢會比較好。
