In the latest of a season’s worth of bad news for the Yankees, Joba Chamberlain popped a blood vessel in his thumb and may miss his start tomorrow. Alfredo Aceves would go in his place, which is why Al was not used as a long reliever in today’s blowout. The Yankees really cannot catch a break, as Joba looked primed in his last start to begin pitching like the ace we know he can be. The offense better show up and help the Yankees take the series.

Update: It seems like Joba will go, as the burst vessel is not giving him any pain.
