    Not only is Bard not a SP (period. Case settled) but unless they return him to the pen soon he will be nothing. Its too bad our FO is too stupid to see that, because Bard could have been a very effective RP for years.
  2. FredLynn
    Yup. Shoulda been cut off
  3. FredLynn
    This guy is simply not a starting pitcher. He does not have what it takes.
  4. FredLynn
    So much for Bard's job as a SP.

    His ERA last September was 5.38; much worse. Let be fair here

    ALL of those pitchers have had bad games. You just can't discount them, or at least I am not going to discount them. I look at raw data that includes all of it without deselecting data that is personally objectionable. His ERA is 4.38. Thats not ace material, not right now.

    Well, if we win tomorrow, and I think we will, we will have done the job despite tonite's loss. Bard is pitching for his spot in the rotation, and he probably knows it. Too many more bad performances and he is back in the pen when either DiceK or Oswalt comes to help. I am expecting Bard to pitch well tomorrow and for us to jump all over Arrieta. I don't think it will even be close.

    Beckett may be an ace to you, but I think you will have to admit that he is not pitching like one statistically right now. You cannot just arbitrarily exclude his worst performances. They count. As do his best ones.

    Thats true of everyone, as you say. So you have to include the good with the bad when you look at these guys. For example, Kuroda has had three bad starts out of nine. But in five others he has surrendered 2 runs three time, no runs once, and one run once. They ALL count in figuring out who is performing. Beckett and Lester are middle of the pack statistically; they are not aces, not right now. Verlander, Peavy, Lowe, Morrow, and Hellickson are the guys pitching like aces right now. We don't have an ace.

    So you want to eliminate 25% of his starts this year. I get it. But sorry; they ALL count
  15. FredLynn
    They count, right? Last I checked they count as much as his two best starts.

    He was calling Buchholtz's brain.

    It was before. Now its just MORE over.

    Yankmees win. We lose this and we are back in last place.

    He isn't getting a free pass from me. Why not pinch run Podsednik for Nava and try to allow him to steal a base? He can still run; he sure can't hit.
  23. FredLynn
    Not very good managing here.
  24. FredLynn
    Podsednik should be pinch running for Nava, not trying to hit the baseball
  25. FredLynn
    Podsednik will hit for Byrd. Podsednik hasn't player ML ball in two years. Why even bother?
