If Contreras can finish the year around a 4.00 ERA, he'll be a valuable asset come this offseason; especially considering the FA starting pitcher class is AJ Burnett and the rest.

 

We should net a pretty decent to solid player for Contreras, if we eat a million or two.  I also think with some more money we'll delve into that Japanese market again, several pitchers wanting to come over here...

 

We'll see what happens. I'm not sure we're going to be looking to invest the type of money Burnett will get in another starter with Buehrle and Garcia already making decent money and Garland due a raise. Even factoring in what we already pay Contreras that would be roughly another $3.5 mil on top (I think, what is it, $7 mil for the Count next year?). That guy who's name I'd butcher from Japan might be interesting, but we'll probably be in a bidding war.

Ok, we need the 1st inning offense back.  Not the 2-4 sleep walkers.

 

we had one hit and one walk in the first inning. you know this offense stinks when you're longing for innings like that.

2 runs off Harden is more then he gave up in 13 innings coming into this game.

^I meant this.  Contreras has the best stuff of any pitcher around.  If any person on this site had half the talent as him, they'd be an ace.

 

If it weren't for Ozuna, I'd probably hate all Cubans :P

Ozuna's Dominican I believe -- ??

after all that, it's still tied.

i'll take it.

that was a terrible pitching inning, could have been alot worse

 

No negative talk.

 

 

That was just a different way of getting 3 outs. He is lulling them into a false sense of security. He only gave up 2 runs. I think he is ready to start game 4 for us in the playoffs.

We're tied against the hottest team in baseball with their best pitcher on the mound, who hadn't allowed a run in his last two starts, and that's our 4th starter on the mound.

He is right, that was an awful inning. I know you are goofing around here, but let's face it, Contreras is a head case. He keeps shaking off Pierzynski and that is total BS.

 

Hey, if they deserve it, they should be criticized. There is nothing wrong with that.

You use your 4th in the playoffs when?
