Jeter In, Joba Out
Joba Chamberlain was put on the bereavement list and will not play for at least 3 ga,es. Joba had this to say:
“As many of you know, my family is dealing with a serious, personal medical condition involving my father Harlan. He is currently in critical but stable condition. We cannot express how much we appreciate the enormous amount of love and compassion that has been shown to my family by so many.
“I also want to thank my teammates and my manager for giving me so much support when I have needed it most. Their actions are the reason I was able to reach my father’s side as quickly as I did. I ask that you please afford my family the privacy that it needs to deal with my father’s condition appropriately. In turn, I will provide updates through the Yankees as they become available to me. “
...best wishes to him and his family. Jon Albaladejo will take his spot.
Wilson Betemit was placed on the DL with pink eye
Lastly Jose Molina strained his hammy and Chad Moeller was called up to catch since Posada will not play today.
