From Joel Sherman:

Should the Yankees advance to the ALCS, they are leaning heavily toward using Chad Gaudin rather than Joba Chamberlain as the Game 4 starter, The Post has learned.

The Yankees would not finalize plans unless they beat Minnesota. But in informal planning sessions there is a growing consensus to keep Chamberlain in the pen throughout the playoffs.

Sherman also says that if the Yankees were to sweep the Twins, they could go with three starters in the league championship series, with CC Sabathia pitching one of his games on short rest.

I agree with the above. The pen is going to come in handy. Starters can go 6+ and the pen can take off from there. As of this point Gaudin has been throwing the ball better than Joba but Chamberlain gives the pen more strength and he's more valuable in that role. Like he said he doesn't have to think much just blow batters away.
