Joba is clearly a victim -- a victim of the Hype Machine, a victim of the Yankees' indecision and ineptitude, and a victim of some incredibly freakish events from midges to trampolines. Somewhere in a parallel universe he's 12-2 with a 2.47 ERA. He definitely deserves a lot of good things in rapid succession.

Wonderful photo - so very, very genuine. Hard to tell who love who more.

3) he's made some mistakes, too. Let's not forget the DUI a couple years back. But I've always believed in, and rooted for Joba. I loved his story, and getting to shake hands with his Pop, and exchange a few words with Harlan at the old Stadium made me a Joba fan for life.
