Joba throws; may be activated Monday
From Yankees.com...
NEW YORK -- It was a soggy Saturday morning in a nearly empty Yankee Stadium when Joba Chamberlain finally returned to a Major League mound, firing 35 pitches in an attempt to prove his readiness for prime time.
Facing live batters for the first time since his Aug. 4 right rotator cuff injury, the 22-year-old right-hander was not perfect, but he may have been good enough. Chamberlain confirmed that he is ready to be activated into the Yankees' bullpen, a decision that could come in the next few days.
After Sunday's game, Chamberlain will travel with the Yankees to Detroit, and it is possible that he could be activated as soon as Monday, when big league rosters officially expand to 40 players.
"It's kind of frustrating sitting there and seeing these guys battle and claw for nine innings," Chamberlain said. "You just sit there and you know you're not even in the bullpen or out here every five days. It'll be good to be back and in battle with these guys."
