Sadly even if Warren throws a 2 hit shutout this will in all likelihood be his last start for a while.
 
I think the Tigers have lost a bit of bite, good luck to Warren this evening, the kid has earned a starters job.!
 
I keep hearing about all of these possible maneuvers with Warren; back to the bullpen, keep him in the rotation for Nova's first month back… it just makes me nauseous that they're playing with these ideas for a good starter while CC sits there and gives you consistently bad innings.
 
Yup, and if Eovaldi flops again in his next start, he should also be considered for the pen...would not be surprised if Cashman gets bent over again and trades away someone at the deadline...if so, hopefully, it won't be one of the youngsters.
 
Warren = 12 games, 69.0 IP, 61 hits, 29 ER, 1.25 WHIP, 4-4 record & a 3.78 ERA

Eovaldi = 13 games, 70.1 IP, 97 hits, 40 ER, 1.65 WHIP, 5-2 record & a 5.12 ERA

DAMN! the number that jumps out at me are HITS allowed in basically the same amount of IP.
 
You know, Eovaldi out of the bullpen would not be a terrible idea. Does he hit 100MPH when he only has 1 inning to pitch?

...bern, I don't think he's hit 100 mph but I believe he hit 97 a few times in his last start.

...problem is, LHers eat him alive...hitting over .400 with an OPS over 1.000
 
Last year Eovaldi led the NL in hits allowed with 223 in 200 innings. This year he's on pace to give up over 250 hits.
 
Well - if we can all agree, maybe, possibly, if we can all agree quite a few pitchers TODAY, this season, who aren't ace type SP are going to have a couple of VERY BAD starts.........and I know ALL THE GAMES COUNT.....but, however.....
Take away TWO VERY BAD starts by CC (5/23 bs TEX, 4/25 vs NYM)...and he's averaging a bit over 6 innings per start with 4.26 ERA in 12GS.
Want to call him a "#5" starter? Fine.
Want to release him?....Fine....I realize 4.26 isn't good...
....just wanted to toss it out for consumption.

Anxious to see the board jump into "action".... lol

...if you admit that "all games count", why take out the 2 bad starts ?...well, other than trying to paint a slightly better picture of a pitcher who sux.

...sorry, it doesn't work that way. It's called a "earned run average"...you can't pick and choose which starts to include. Spin it however you want but the fact remains that CC is supposed to be an ace but is barely a #5.

Okay, it doesn't work that way, as you said....I guess maybe, possibly, perhaps EVERY PITCHER isn't going to have a stinker or two....okay.

Thank you.
 
CC's numbers are terrible anyway you look at it. If you want to try and find a positive it's that his ERA is in the 4.00s for June after being in the 5.00s for April and May. We shall see what his final June start brings.

CC is supposed to be an ace?
Why did the Yanks BEGIN the season with him being the designated "#3" behind Tanaka and Pineda?

Excuse me...I must've missed this. Okay, thank you.

Thank you very much...I'm learning.
 
I hope Warren does well tonight. He's
earned the starter's role..... others on
this staff seem to get a free ride.
Lack of accountability again reigns in
Yankeeland.

What do you base this on?

Do you see who gets rewarded on this team? When
was the last time a young pitcher gets rewarded
over a vet in this organization? Feeling....yeah, right!
 
The long days of summer have arrived, here in the Hi-Desert, 1 hr. north of L.A. its 105 degrees outside.....long season for the couple of Minor Lg Teams that call the Mojave Home.......
 
You just knew Arod would do it like that. I mean can't just have Jeter do it. Hit number 3000 is an Abomb.
 
Nice job Didi. Ties it at 2 with a solo shot.
 
The announcers made a great point, when Jeter got his 3000 hit every Rays player came out of the dugout to applaud Jeter as he made his way around the bases. The Tiger players didn't even acknowledge it.
 
It's a hell of an accomplishment, no matter how you slice it.
 
Headley è fortunato la palla rimbalza di nuovo a lui .

Tom I'm not a fan but I was thinking the same thing. I mean hell when you think about all the guys that have played this game (I think I heard the # 18,000) for only 29 of them to reach 3,000 hits is no small task.

...uhhh, yes, he's supposed to be an ace...do you seriously think the Yanx resigned CC to be a #5?...no, he was signed to ace money, period.

...stop with idiocy...Jesus tap dancing Christ.

It's just a shame he went to the steroid route. Him and Aaron are the only two guys with 2000 RBIs. Who knows what his numbers would be without the steroids but he's clearly more talented than most who have played the game and didn't need them.
