At what cost? If Lester continues the way he looks, Lackey remains solid and Buchholz comes back we have enough pitching to win. I think we need a bat at third base more than a SP.
Let's compage 2007 versus this season
Beckett
Schilling (4.00 ERA 40 year old Schilling)
Wakefield
DiceK(4.40 ERA)
Tavarez/Lester
Lester
Buchholz
Lackey
Doubront
Dempster
Buchholz is a big IF, but I feel just as confidant of this staff as I did in 2007.
More up and down ******** for Lester. I am longing for the days of 94-97 from Lester. I think his regression to 92-94 has really hurt him as a pitcher.
Does anyone else feel like John Farell has made an insane amount of right moves this season? Is it just the fact that I'm so elated we are good, or has Farell pushed every right button?
Great start so far by Workman. The amount of young pitching depth in this organization is amazing. I feel like we have ha a good outting in every spot start this year.
Fixed!
Also, if Lester can get his mechanics back he is better than Sanchez, Scherzer is having a great season, he might be a mismatch but I want to see how Lackey pitches the rest of the season, because he has been pretty awesome so far this year.
