Managers are biased observers.

"Odd, isn't it, that the manager who sees and speaks no evil whenever Chamberlain attempts to come as close as possible to splitting Kevin Youkilis' melon without actually doing so whenever he faces the Red Sox, made no secret of his disapproval of the Daniel Cabrera pitch that hit Alex Rodriguezbelow the left shoulder in the eighth inning of last night's 7 -6 loss to the Orioles?"

It's not odd at all.

Let's say Alex Rodriguez hits three homeruns today. That is good for Joe Girardi. But not if Aubrey Huff hits three homeruns.

Let's say the Yankees win today. This is good for Joe Girardi. But not if the Orioles win.

Joe Girardi should never disapprove of Joba Chamberlain and always disapprove of Daniel Cabrera.
