greg775 Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Tony what I'm saying is Anderson sucks, also. We would have been a much better team with the same pieces of last year. All the additions have been s***. McDougal, Riske, Mack, the list goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankensteiner Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 The question is where is our pitching going to come from next year?

And Anderson got off to a terrible start with the bat, but saying "Anderson sucks" is simply wrong, and 2 years from now, when he's regarded as one of the best CF's in baseball, you'll see what we mean.

I'll take my chances next year with the starting 4 and McCarthy. I honestly feel like we have to improve our offense more than our pitching for next season.

TitoMB345 Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 SO the question now is... whos the worst pitcher on the team? Jose? Freddy? Javy? Buehrle? I still think I vote for Freddy right now. Not sure who's next though... Javy or Jose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funny thing is that Anderson't hot stretch almost coincides with this team struggling. Brian Anderson isn't the reason for this team being in the position that it is. I cringe at the thought of how much higher the ERAs would be if he wasn't out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 QUOTE(greg775 @ Aug 26, 2006 -> 04:56 PM) Why do we suddenly stink? Minnie must love kicking our ass so much. This is on KW, not Ozzie. He's the one who signed Mack and counted on BA and his spiffy .220 batting average instead of Rowand. Greg, look at the stats. Rowand has done nothing in Philly and he doesn't even hold BA's jock strap defensively. Offensively Rowand has also been worse the past two months. This isn't on Kenny, albeit he should have gotten us an extra outfielder that could play CF. However, there is no reason to not play the best defensive cfer in baseball (statistically speaking) damn near every day (and that person is Brian Anderson).

Since it's so great (as I remember reading that blog quote) that we have these guys signed through 2007/2008. Here's the other side of the token...Mark Buehrle, Jon Garland, and Jose Contreras are all significantly better than the numbers they've put up this season. Vastly better. We've seen Garland and Conteras both go through really rough stretches that have hurt their numbers for the season, and we've seen Buehrle be terrible for about 2 months. But these guys are NOT pitchers who put up ERA's between 4.5-5.0. Jon Garland had a terrible start to the season...is there any reason to think that he is guaranteed to have another bad 1st half next year? No. Mark Buehrle can throw up an ERA around 3 for a season, is there any rational reason to believe that he'll put up 5's the rest of his career? I don't think so. At some point, these guys' numbers are going to even out. This season has been so bad for them, that you just have to think they have some good pitching left in them.
