Bigsoxhurt35 Posted June 15, 2014 Author Share Posted June 15, 2014 We need a win badly. I was very happy with 2 of 3 from DET. Getting smacked good the past couple days has me down. Let's bomb Shields Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 (edited) This pitching staff is horrible. Rienzo not long for this rotation. There is not a lot of talent on this roster. Edited June 15, 2014 by fathom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rienzo rolling everything leaving it up. You cannot win with Noesi and Rienzo in rotation..............KC has won last 9 of 10 in Chicago.

caulfield12 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 (edited) The question is who do you replace Rienzo with...? Once again, depth and disappointing performances from Erik Johnson and Paulino not helping things. And the ghost of Didier Drogba might be more effective for Ivory Coast than Tommie Hanson for the Knights. As long as it's not Axelrod or Carroll, I guess. This could be the first time we suffered sweeps at home (going back to last year) like this to the Royals since 1999.

soxfan49 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I'm not sure if this was touched on in another thread, but the worst part of this is that there aren't any great trade chips on this team. Danks would have to have a great July, but I'm not banking on that. I'm not sure if any team would give up a hell of a lot for Dunn. Gillaspie could net a mediocre haul. The only guy would be Sale, and he's not going anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Belisario's very valuable as a set-up guy, middle reliever. Beckham and Viciedo could get you something. DeAza eventually can be cleared for salary relief if he gets hot, not that we have anyone but Taylor/Sierra/Danks to give playing time to in the 2nd half.

I'd bet someone would take him if he keeps pitching like he has been, but I wouldn't trade him, he's been too good. Lexi/Gordon/Conor and some guys in the pen are all decent trade chips.

His ERA is 4.17 and his WHIP is 1.32. No one is giving up a prospect of value for that, especially when "that" is still due a stupid amount of money.

Only 8 guys have more than 10. His ERA is inflated due to 2 really bad starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
