    you shouldnt be excited if your on the jays.

    He just gained a TON of confidence with that strikeout. Bases loaded and jays only get one.

    His team will try hard to get the young man a W, as they know how valuable he will be later in the year.

    True dat BOT...just a little worried about the bullpen having to enter earlier than expected since he threw 38 pitches in the 1st.

    They will pitch him over 75pitches if he can get a decision. Halladay doesnt look great either.

    Joba has only allowed one hit as well. I guarantee you joba goes over 75 pitches. And as for the pen coming in, they knew this as well. Someone's probably been resting 4+days to come in to relieve. Their bullpen isnt god awful, and the jays are far from an elite hitting squad.

    joba walked 3 or 4 people, thats not good

    i mean i am sure halladay goes 7-8 innings
    joba will not go 5, there is no way unless his next 4 innings are 5-8 pitches right?

    there was a young kid already up in the bullpen.......He played a little in the Giants organization last year. We'll see what happens.

    Walks are direct result of a lack of control. First start in yankee stadium + nerves + fastball pitcher = shaky.

    Once the nerves went away with that big strikeout, he should have his location back on that fastball.

    The thing I love about the guy, is when he really,really needs it... He just fires 3 nasty fastballs by you at 99+ and sits you down in a hurry.

    Now the question is, what was the point of starting Joba in a game where his role in the 8th is more vital. Will he pitch the rest of the series at all?

    he is in the rotation
    this was the plan all along
    they started it all last yr
    and bc hughes and kennedy are awful, they panicked early and here we are.
    yanks wont make the playoffs this year, they have NO pitching



    ps. joba cannot get the win no matter what

    still, this game is a toss up
    yanks offense is miles better, just as jays pitching is miles better
    but yanks will eventually get halladay outta there

    They hadn't scored yet when I posted that I was hoping for a 60 pitch 2 inning win just for comedy's sake cuz I stayed of this game money wise.

    The jays only have one hit.

    They are not batting well, just catching breaks.

    Gonna be tight
