Jose Veras and Edwar Ramirez, both had good years as the setup men last season, might not even make the team this year because there are so many relievers.

Now the Yanks are so stacked in the pen, they don't even need Joba Chamberlain? Wow, that's a formidable bullpen indeed. The rest of baseball doesn't have a prayer, since plainly the Yankees have no weakness. This exchange reminds me a bit of when every Yankee fan I knew was telling me how great Melky Cabrera is.

Those guys you named all had good seasons in 2008 and there is no reason to expect that 3 of those 4 can't have solid 2009 seasons. On top of that I wonder if you have ever heard of Mark Melancon. There is also David Robertson, Michael Dunn, Phil Coke and Humberto Sanchez to consider. The Yankees don't even need Joba in the bullpen. It's over crowded as it is.
