Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

Mark Hendrickson is overrated!

9. Mark Hendrickson (Orioles) -- 26.1 IP, 5.13 ERA, 6.75 FIP, -1.62 E-F, 7.09 tERA
When your ERA is over 5.00 and you've been lucky, that's not a good sign. You don't need me to tell you that Hendrickson won't be a serviceable pitcher any time soon. The only good news for Baltimore fans is that the faster Hendrickson's ERA flies north, the sooner they'll start to see the glut of Oriole pitching prospects called up to the majors.

who the hell

ever said mark hedrickson was any good?! someone DOES have to say something positive about you for you to be overrtaed, correct? maybe its the fact that he’s a major league pitcher. thta’s kind of overrating him.

His ERA is artificially low

compared to his defense independent metrics.

I don’t think anyone has said he’s any good, at least not for a while. Serviceable at best. Not even that right now.

Ya know,

if John Gibbons would have gotten to him earlier in his career his ERA would be a Greinkeism.
