With his team getting smashed by the Rays in Tampa last night, Yankees first baseman and former Buckeye Nick Swisher found himself in an unusual spot in the eighth inning–the pitcher’s mound. In an effort to save arm stamina for his bullpen, Yanks manager Joe Girardi gave the ball to Swisher, who hadn’t pitched since [...]
Joba to the pen
The decision has finally been made and to many it is no surprise. Joba Chamberlain will be pitching from the bullpen for the New York Yankees to start 2008.

There is considerably less doubt surrounding the intentions of Andy Pettitte's up-and-in pitch to David Ortiz in the next half-inning.
"We're just pitching," Yankee skipper Joe Girardi said, via the Boston Herald. "We had...
