BOMBERS PLAN TO AMEND JOBA RULES By GEORGE KING 重點: 張伯倫的封印條款計畫有所修正 1. 張伯倫投一局休一天，投兩局休兩天的封印條款計畫有所修正，不再看局數，而看投球數，投球數不多，老托可以解開封印繼續用。 2. 此一改變要拜老方所賜，老托年紀大心臟不太好，巴著要貼上封咒的老康(Nardi Contreras)改變一下咒語, 老康說要跟小聯盟的頭頭牛頓(Mark Newton)及現金人談過後，才能給老托解答。如果封印咒語真的改的話，要看投球數，若很少老托才能第二天再讓張伯倫出來。如果這計畫成真，球迷將不用常常在第八局很礙眼的看到老方上場。 3. 張伯倫說，可能幫助球隊的話他願意盡全力，老托說這種改變的決定是很不得已的，他當然很想把他當天天張來用，但他知道張伯倫現在那麼殺，就是因為封印條款寫的不錯，他會小心念咒語的，請球迷安心。 August 30, 2007 -- The Joba Rules are about to change, The Post has learned. And after watching Kyle Farnsworth almost flush a Yankees win last night, the alterations can't be made soon enough. Joe Torre and minor-league pitching coordinator Nardi Contreras, the creator of the Joba Rules, talked yesterday via phone about altering the way 21-year-old right-hander Joba Chamberlain will be used out of the bullpen. Since arriving in the big leagues Aug. 7, Chamberlain has been tethered to the following program: One inning pitched requires one day off. Two innings requires two days of rest. Three innings of work means three days on the pine. And he needs two days off before being asked to throw two innings. Nevertheless, because Chamberlain's pitch counts have been very low (he is averaging 14.3 pitches an inning in his past six outings), and he is in the third week of being a major-league reliever after starting for the majority of the season in the minors, the Joba Rules will be altered. "It may happen next week or so with more information and conversation," Torre told The Post during batting practice last night at the Stadium, where the Yankees beat the Red Sox, 4-3, despite Farnsworth giving up a two-run homer in the eighth. When the Joba Rules change, Chamberlain's availability will depend on the pitch count in the previous outing. "That's what we are talking about now," Torre said. "We haven't had any definitive change yet." More of Chamberlain will be a big boost for the Yankees. He likely won't continue to dominate hitters the way he has in the first eight outings (10 innings, 4 hits, 17 strikeouts, 3 walks). However, Torre could use him in consecutive games depending on how many pitches were thrown. When the creator of the Joba Rules was asked about them being changed, Contreras danced around the topic. "I have talked to [minor-league head] Mark Newman and [GM] Brian Cashman and I will talk to Joe Torre," Contreras said. "We will talk about different things." Yankees fans can expect to see more of Chamberlain's 100 mph fastball and filthy slider. And possibly never set eyes on Farnsworth in the eighth again. If asked to drag the infield and do the idiotic YMCA dance during games, Chamberlain would be fine with the assignment. Asked about an increased workload, Chamberlain embraced it. "I am willing to do anything to help this team win," said Chamberlain, who worked two innings in each of his first two outings and one inning in the following six. Though Torre knows more of Chamberlain is good for his bullpen, he said he understands one of the reasons for Chamberlain's early dominance is the way he has been handled. "It's pretty tough to alter something that is working," Torre said. "You would like to have him more often, but maybe the reason he has been successful is because of what we have done." george.king@nypost.com -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.132.198.21 ※ 編輯: leddy 來自: 220.132.198.21 (08/30 23:48)
