Brian Cashman talks about Joba Chamberlain’s place on the roster:

As pitchers and catchers get set Monday to report in Tampa, Cashman said the right-hander, who already endured four difficult years in New York, would remain a reliever — if selected.

“Anybody who has [minor league] options is not a lock for anything,” the GM said Sunday. “Any player with options has to re-earn everything. You earn more or you earn less — New York or Scranton.”

I would guess that statement will get the pitcher’s attention.
