I just think he has the temperment of a short reliever. ...in the mold of Gossage, not Mo Rivera. Volatile. They’re tying to turn him into Clemens, and it’s just not working. But what you said is true — Joba had a pretty good stretch after the AS break.

He has me worried tonite. I have never liked the “joba rule”.

Let’s hope he doesn’t load the bases tonite.

I like the Term Jim Leyland uses for starting pitchers who can pitch out of a jam. He calls them “horses”.
