greasywheels121 Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Another great outing by Vazquez, he's been flat out impressive thus far. Cotts and BMac were quite efficient tonight, as well. And the offense was very solid 1-9 tonight. Let's come back tomorrow and win the series with Buehrle on the bump! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEWOOD Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Sounded like a great game...I had to listen to it on the radio. I was in the car driving back from the burbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been damn good but I want to see him against a non-AAA team at some point. Hasn't he already faced the Royals three times? Glad to see the Sox took care of business.

Baines3 Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 YES!! Jim Thome hit another one, another great pitching performance. Tigers lost, so we have our 1 1/2 game lead back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it goes way beyond that IMO. Right now, I have him down as an ace for literally half of the teams in baseball: Philadelphia Washington Atlanta Cincinatti Pittsburgh Los Angeles Colorado Arizona Baltimore Tampa Bay Kansas City Cleveland Detroit Seattle Texas And the 15 that he's not an ace on: NY Mets (Pedro Martinez) Florida (Dontrelle Willis) Houston (Roy Oswalt) Chicago (Carlos Zambrano) St. Louis (Cris Carpenter) Milwaukee (Ben Sheets) San Diego (Jake Peavy) San Francisco (Jason Schmidt) NY Yankees (Randy Johnson) Boston (Curt Schilling) Toronto (Roy Halladay) Chicago (Jose Contreras) Minnesota (Johan Santana) Anaheim (Bartolo Colon) Oakland (Rich Harden) Call me crazy, but that's just how I see it. Jeremy Bonderman and Felix Hernandez have yet to really take off, and I think that Javier owns dudes like CC Sabathia, Brad Penny, Brandon Webb, Zach Duke, Livan Hernandez, etc. The only team that I could go either way on is Atlanta (John Smoltz).

In reality, he's becoime our 3rd starter. Still, I doubt there's a better 3rd starter in baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, that guy and Smoltz are the closest calls. With the way the ball jumps out of Arizona, Webb and his super sinker's a better fit than Vazquez. I do think it's interesting that Vazquez is throwing more 2 seam fastballs this year in order to keep the ball in the park. The only homer he allowed was a massive hanger hit by Hillenbrand.

In that particular stadium? No question. I'm thinking in terms of putting every one of these guys in a neutral setting, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
