Chances are if he flunks spring training, he's in the the pen also.

But, think about this even if we leave Joba in the pen. Know, that we have quite a few pitchers in our farm who could be starters. Not just Igawa, but Horne etc.etc.etc. At some point there gonna be on the Yankees and I think 2 or more of them will be dominant starters.

So then we'd have Mussina/Kennedy/ Hughes/Pettitte/ Horne(?) If Joba isn't on the starting rotation we're gonna be fine because there must be a farm guy who would be ready to be the fifth starter.
