“I can promise you, I’m going to pitch. I can promise you that. You can write that down, too. Tell everybody. It’s going to happen.”

I don’t know about you but this kind of defiance mixed with confidence from Joba Chamberlain gets me excited for the tail end of the season.

Chamberlain hasn’t appeared in a Major League game since June 5, 2011 and if he does return this season, the turnaround will be pretty amazing considering all of the setbacks he’s suffered since his Tommy John surgery.
