Now to the important question: Would you have rather signed Felipe Paulino or Ervin Santana? They were on the same team last year, a team desperate for pitching, and that team did offer one of them $14 million and let the other walk. That was the first giveaway.

Eminor3rd Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 30, 2014 -> 07:22 AM) Why don't we make a wager. The loser has to say in his signature the other is the best poster on this site. I will say Jimenez's ERA at the end of the season will be lower than Noesi's, and we will only count Noesi's White Sox numbers. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 30, 2014 -> 07:40 AM) My wager proposition was with Balta because of the Jimenez/Noesi ERA issue. For some people who think Jimenez sucks and always will, you guys sure do seem nervous he might wind up with a decent ERA. I was thinking about this the other night when I was seeing how well the Orioles have done. I thought, "hmm, I wonder if Ubaldo worked out after all." Nope: Hector Noesi: 4.69 (0.7 fWAR) Ubaldo Jimenez: 4.96 (0.3 fWAR) Should be a tight race to the finish line, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be, but no one took the bet. I think Ubaldo is in the bullpen. Edited September 12, 2014 by Dick Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I know no one took the bet, I was referring to the tight race between the two pitchers. Ubaldo as a potential closer might be the best thing at this point if he can gain some of his lost velocity. Looks like walks were the main culprit -- a career high up over 5 BB/9. That and his famously low HR rate spiking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
