I think this article pretty much sums up my feelings about it.

So the Yankees will try to ride Joba's success, only now as a starter...

This game will be priority 1-b for me to watch tonight. Good thing there won't be any pressure on him.

Major World Event: Christopher Columbus discovers America, 1492

Why This is Bigger: First of all, Columbus didn't discover squat. He didn't even know where he was. He was lost. He thought he had landed on India. Plus, you can't "discover" something that's already inhabited. And the continent Columbus bumped into was already inhabited by Native Americans. Oh, and by the way, guess who is half Native American? You got it. (His other half? Awesome.)

Classic!http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif

I can't wait for him to get rocked the third time through the order because he's not stretched out to start, then seeing all of the debate shows on ESPN tomorrow questioning how this could have possibly happened. With the pitch count they gave him for tonight, he'll be lucky to get through 4 or 5 innings, so even if he does get through it relatively unscathed, that bullpen is going to be completely trashed after tonight...nice way to start a homestand.

I can't believe anyone knew he was pitching tonight. I mean, Espn only had outside the lines, espn news, PTI, and every other show talking and analyzing it.

Are you implying that ESPN has some sort of Yankee bias?

This is going to be one dude I will love to hate. He's just a punk on the mound.

Not only the yankees. They do give Boston the love also. I mean they also have been breaking down Big Papi's injury on every show and how it will effect the Sox. What a bunch of crap.

Sorry as well. I got your post but wanted to give the Sox their own credit. All of it is a joke and this is the media biased society we live in today.

Final line 2.1 innings, 1 hit, 1 ER, 4 walks, 3 strikeouts, 62 pitches. What a stud!

I'm trying to remember the last Yankee prospect of any kind that wasn't super hyped...

If this guy pitched for the Kansas City Royals no one would know he existed. We know the jackasses at ESPN wouldn't.
