He doesn't try to overpower hitters and seems to get a lot of ground balls.<br />How many teams have 3 lefties in their starting rotation?Brother Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18162500140573910451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7941261488380355005.post-6059908048061525272010-07-25T12:19:18.146-07:002010-07-25T12:19:18.146-07:00"You guys" ain't me. There's no ..."You guys" ain't me. There's no angst here. When Albert Pujols slugs below .600, you notice. When Tim is 5th and not 1st, you notice. When his ERA+ is 135 (169 and 177 the last two years) and below his career average (149), you notice.<br /><br />And I could care less about the Cy Young Award. I don't care who wins it. Sure, I'm happy when it is a Giant, but I'd rather have the BEST TEAM, whether Tim wins an award or not.M.C.

Sur...I've been very surprised by the Tim angst. Sure he's not quite as good as last year, but the drop off is not that huge. Remember a few weeks ago a lot of you guys didn't think he was our ace, but that has faded away. The last bad start was preceeded by two of his best. Another couple hot starts and he is back in the Cy race...after all he stands as the fifth or sixth best right now. Lots of time left. I really am not worried about Tim.<br />We need a lefty reliever tho. What will we do? Walk Gonzalez every time?JC Parsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00666659454815710731noreply@blogger.com
