Kansas City Royals at Baltimore Orioles, Jul 2, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
7:05 :: MASN :: 85° W-12 MPH (S) :: Rain: 10%
Today's Starting Pitchers GS IP ERA WHIP BAA HR BB K W-L Gil Meche - RH - #55 17 102.1 4.66 1.32 .255 12 35 82 6-8 Daniel Cabrera - RH - #40 17 109.1 4.53 1.41 .261 14 47 64 5-4
Yesterday started the real second half of the 2008 season. Seems like it's been kinda short, doesn't it?
Meche, career v. BAL: 96.2 IP, 3.26/1.31, 4-5
Cabrera, career v. KC: 44 IP, 2.25/1.23, 4-0
Guys that have had success against the opponent.
Cabrera has, well, hit a wall. After his May 20th start, his ERA stood at 3.48. He was oupitching even optimistic predictions, really, and going seven routinely.
Since then, his ERA has risen to 4.53. Why? The walks are back in some part. Over his last 42 innings, he's walked 23. Not as awful as he used to be, but pretty bad. But the walks aren't killing him. May 20 and prior, he had just twice given up more hits than innings he'd pitched. Since then, he's done it five times, and the other two starts had him giving up six in six innings and six in seven innings.
The lack of strikeouts -- a problem that started last season -- are hurting him. When he doesn't have his best stuff, he's going to get rocked. Plus, the fact is he's throwing almost all fastballs. That's a great theory, and it worked well for a little bit. But his fastball is not so good that he can work six-seven innings off of that pitch exclusively on a consistent basis. He doesn't blow it by anyone anymore. His K/9 is a really pedestrian 5.28, which gives him a pretty crappy K-to-BB ratio, too.
I'm really not trying to harsh any buzzes, but Cabrera's as good as he's going to get unless he suddenly figures out how to strike batters out again. He's a fourth/fifth starter that can eat up innings. Someday, I really think he'll put it together and have one outstanding season, maybe two. Lots of guys have them, and there's no reason Cabrera can't find a zone for one entire season sometime. He was more effective -- if ever so slightly -- in '05 and '06 than he has been this season. He's better than he was last year, sure, but it wasn't going to take much to top that dismal campaign.
But I've rambled about Danny C enough for right now. Go get 'em, champ. Throw a few good starts together and look attractive at the deadline.

Alright, Danny, here's the deal...
You’re on my fantasy team, I’m currently up 13-0 in this week’s game, I’d really like to you return to the form you had against KC earlier in the year, or, better yet, like that one game you had against the Yankees that may have aired on some other four letter network…you can do this for me, Danny, I know you can.
p.s. Nick and Brian keep hitting, thanks.

Speaking of keep hitting
Is anyone else surprised that Huff and Luuuuke are tied for HRs at 14 apiece? It’s like Sherrill pulling a couple dozen saves out of his arse. I know Luuuke/Shutdown get a lot more time with our team, but still. Good numbers.

And, Roch confirms he asked George Sherrill why did JayPay flip his bill last nihgt. “Casue I blew two in a row,” Sherrill said.

And in my ideal world
Jones is hitting at least 6th, if not 2nd or 3rd. I think if he’s sandwiched between B-Rob and Nicky, he’d do the job. But it’s complete gut instinct without a lick of data or analysis to back it up.

He doesn’t blow it by anyone anymore
I still find that strange. Didn’t he used to throw 96-97? He’s hitting 92 more often.. every once in a while 94.. do you think they told him to sacrifice velocity for control?
by Y Not on Jul 2, 2008 5:20 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
The velocity isn’t the problem I don’t think. A lot of the time his fastball is straighter than a grizzly’s dick. Matt Anderson threw like 102 but these are big league hitters.
But yeah, he’s definitely dropped down and it has to be on purpose. I guess it’s all they could really do.

How does that compare with Markakis' 1st year
Is it a similar trajectory or is Jones’ climb to adequacy a bit less pronounced?

In May 2006 Markakis had a OBP of .270 and a SLG of .288
He was batting .182—AVG doesn’t mean much, but in this case it meant he was BAD
In June his OBP was .403!!!! and his SLG was .400, so he still wasn’t hitting for power at all, but he has gotten quite good at getting on base.

But his fastball is not so good that he can work six-seven innings off of that pitch exclusively on a consistent basis.
When his fastball has that sinking action, ti’s pretty good enough to work off exclusively. The problem is that he can’t consistently put that sinking action on his pitches. Anyways, TRADE HIM!!!

He needs that ball to sink
or he needs a changeup. He’s got to have one or the other. Because hitters will catch up to ANY fastball that doesn’t move.

I rad that
but the odds of rehab actually being a long-term fix are virtually zilch. Why not have the surgery now, and start the clock on coming back next year? This way, if he gets cut in September instead of July, he misses almost all of NEXT year, too, instead of possibly being back by next year’s ASG break.

Doing rehab before the surgery (prehab) actually makes the likelyhood of successful recovery much better.
Not to mention increasing the chances of increased velocity.

Hopefully, it works out that way
But it read to me like Albers actually expected to avoid surgery altogether, and that’s just not going to happen.

Yeah that's not too likely.

UCL has a MUCH higher rate
of pitchers coming back to do well. Some even say they INCREASE velocity after having the two surgeries. Torn labrum’s a whole different deal.
As my ortho told me when I had to get a ‘scope for a torn rotator cuff, “It will be really close to 100%. But it will never be 100% again. Make sure you understand that.”

FTA...
But if pitchers with torn labrums were horses, they’d be destroyed. Of the 36 major-league hurlers diagnosed with labrum tears in the last five years, only midlevel reliever Rocky Biddle has returned to his previous level. Think about that when your favorite pitcher comes down with labrum trouble: He has a 3 percent chance of becoming Rocky Biddle.

It’s the lone sport where the commentators are VERY honest, even brutally so. When they see bullshit, they call bullshit. When a guy stinks, they say he stinks. When a matchup is a joke, they say it’s a joke. When a fight sucks, they say it sucks.
MMA has it to a lesser degree, but not like boxing.

Absolutely correct
When my boy Fernando Guerrero from Salisbury got his ESPN2 fight, Tony Atlas just laid into him in the last round, And this was a fight my boy won handily. And the next day in the paper, his trainer said he was going to play the tape and make Fernando listen to everything Tony said. Because he was right.

Right there in the constitution, it says they can’t mix Dick Vitale and the Red Sox. Someone call a judge and get an injunction!
