Can’t agree with criticizing Williams either. LaRoche wouldn’t pull that with the Braves. Chipper and the boys would have never allowed it. Sale needed a Chipper or Smoltz to help him learn the unwritten rules of clubhouse etiquette and being a great teammate. Rebellious acts don’t make him a great teammate.

Couldn’t agree more. If he was supposed to start that day that’s even worse. No excuses for that act. Just needs to get surgery and be ready for next year. Always been a first half pitcher. Second half gets tired and he’s not the same pitcher and that’s been going on for a long time.

31 million!!!! Losing record last year Shut down several times and on pitch counts before the age of 30.

If he was slated to pitch that day then he hurts his team. Creating distraction over a uniform while getting paid millions. Can’t agree with that.

Needs to do something. For what he’s being paid and for what he has not done the last few years Jen has to get himself right.

Bad gamble on a guy that has not been really good for three or four years. Had his spots for sure but not like a true durable number 1. So what if he strikes lots of guys out look at ages 28 through 30. Lots of wear and tear before he got here and even lots of and lots of innings in college.

Said it for years about Sale... Threw way too many innings in college with a throwing program in college that is concerning. If you look at the second half of his season every year he was never the same pitcher and in fact the last three years it has been not good at in the second half. Can’t believe we paid this much money. The other major mistake was letting Price go. Longevity wise price has been excellent. At age of 28 we were shutting Sale down second half. After this year it would be fair to say the last 3-4 years have been not anything near what would be expected of someone some say is a great lefty let alone a number 1 starter.

No kidding. His durability really worries me, especially after the way he got hit last year and shutting him down a couple of times the last few years.
