harkness99 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 07:57 PM) He's not the type of guy teams overpay for Quintana career v LHP: .248/.302/.382 Quintana career v RHP: .261/.318/.393 If you're really that desperate to have more of a righty/lefty split in the rotation despite none of them actually struggling way more against righties, why not move Danks (the way worse pitcher) into a long man roll and give one of our righties like Guerra or Johnson a chance? Oh yeah that would be better... just don't think we could get much for Danks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capn12 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 If Q could be more direct at going after guys, who knows what his career W/L record would look like. 101 games career, 600 innings...these 20+ pitch innings have to be much less a part of his starts.

Feeky Magee Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Bad call but a) why the hell is Avi stealing, he was 2 for 5 on the season and 9 for 18 on his career, it's a 3-1 count and the guy can't throw strikes right now, and b) why the hell does our dumbass org think Avi can steal 30 bases in a season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want him to turn into John Danks? He has a 92 mph heater. He works with what he has man. Being "more direct" would lead to gopherballs.

I'm not talking about getting something for him, I'm talking about moving him into the Scott Carroll role and possibly saving yourself a Quintana by finding your "decent righty" within the org, which I believe we could well have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being "more direct" would lead to gopherballs. Guys who 'only' throw 92 can still have success by not chalking up big pitch counts early in games. Pitch counts are about the dumbest thing around to measure a guys ability to stay in a game, but it unfortunately is the metric that still some how reigns supreme. He has to find a way to find some efficiency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has to find a way to find some efficiency. He's pitched more innings than Sale the last two years combined, what now? If you're gonna b**** about a guy that's thrown over 200 innings each of the last two years and will likely do so again this year -- then you will b**** about 95% of starting pitchers because there aren't many Jim Palmers and Nolan Ryan rubber arms left out there.

Capn12 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Quick rule of thumb....pointing out the obvious usually doesn't = b****ing. I'm not sure why you're super sensitive about anyone saying Q should be able to produce more in the W/L, just stating the facts. Btw, pitching more innings than Sale in the last 2 years is kind of a given, considering Sale was on the DL last year and all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
