By the Way, the Yankees Still Consider Joba Chamberlain a Starter

Good news for people who like having the same conversation over and over again: Brian Cashman said yesterday that the Yankees still consider Joba Chamberlain to be a starting pitcher, but since there’s only one available spot in the rotation and he didn’t win it, “he’s a starter in the bullpen.” Meaning we get to revive the starter-or-reliever debate again next spring, or when someone in the rotation gets hurt this season, or really any time Phil Hughes has a bad game.
