Rotation Set, Wang To Be Skipped

Here's the rotation for the rest of the week via Pete Abe:
Tuesday vs. Oakland: Andy Pettitte
Wednesday vs. Oakland: CC Sabathia
Thursday: Day off
Friday at Boston: Joba Chamberlain
Saturday at Boston: A.J. Burnett
Sunday at Boston: Andy Pettitte
Good decision by Girardi, they couldn't throw Wang out there against Boston.

I'm a little worried that Joba and AJ are going back to back against the Red Sox. Didn't Girardi want to break them up to give a different look.

Hopefully Andy will pitch well because if Joba and AJ lose Andy is our only hope the prevent the sweep.

You really have that little faith in both Joba and Burnett?

I think the Yankees can at least split those two games, both Burnett and Joba have pitched well against Boston in the past.

Joba is dead meat if he throws at Youkilis. LOL!

I hope Joba throws at Youkilis again. The guy is one of their best offensive weapons at the moment. Rattle his cage a little bit. I'm all for it.

im pretty sure it will be Lester, Beckett and Wakefield.. funny how they match up almost exactly to Joba, Burnett and Pettitte.

The young studs on Friday, the 2 absolute nasty guys on Saturday, and the 2 veterans on Sunday.

Yeah everytime Joba throws at Youkillis it rattles Youkillis and he always strikes out at that at bat and walks away screaming.

At first I thought Anon. was being sarcastic but when i thought about it, that usually happens every time he throws at him...haha
