Pelfrey is pitching Friday. Maine is alot better than I thought he was going to be. And Chuck is right about Perez, he is so wild at times. But he is a 25 year old lefty that throws 95 MPH. I also think that they should have given Heilman a shot to be a starter this year. Bottom line is they have options. They have players on the team and on the farm that have value, so if they want to deal they can.

Think of what HandShadow thought of the old me.

I will make one comment.

I am not a Byrd fan,but as a 4th to 5th starter I'd like to know who boasts much better.The problem is primarily Wedge and his complete inability to realize where to put who as well as having some of the most eye popping philosophies known to baseball kind.....no conception how to win little ball games.I have to give Shapiro credit here as well.

Heilman has an era of 5.88 as a starter...maybe Willie was right?

Perez was a dominating pitcher for the Pirates in 2004 before he fell apart. The talent is there,

While I have to admit I was a little skeptical about Borowski, they have only blown 5 saves which is very good. But CC is due for an injury, Carmona is falling apart and Casy Blake has to shave that beard.

If you check CC does not not have history of injury...Carmona could be..or just had a bad game which is more what I think.......Blake looks too fuzzy..I agree.....Borowski is scarier than Wickman.





But ,just one example, Wedge players like Nixon have to go. Gutierrez is going to be a junior model of Clemente....if Wedge ever sees it before he decides to dump him like Phillips and the pitcher Baltimore took off our hands. That's only a snippet.

Exactly, he is due

The thing I could never understand about making a closer out of Carmona is that he is pretty hitable and doesn't strike guys out, which you would think is the mark of top closers. I guess because he is a big guy and they needed someone to be the closer.

Getting Nixon didn't seem to make much sense and I guess hasn't.

I have never understood why Shapiro has been in love with Wedge, still dont.

Interesting take...
