rookie_rick Posted August 4, 2008 Author Share Posted August 4, 2008 What should i do with my pitching rotation? They have struggled all year and so im wondering what everyone would do. Would you guys send people down for a while and call up some young pitchers or maybe bare with it till it turns around? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you guys send people down for a while and call up some young pitchers or maybe bare with it till it turns around? Id ride it out until the end of April, but yeah Id bring up Clay, to see what kind of stuff he has. If not, at least for a 6th starter. Try going 6 deep for a rotation or two.

Yea my original idea was to wait till about mid may but im not sure if i want to wait that long so end of april sounds good and calling up Clay wouldn't be a good idea as at the minute he has a ERA over 8 and my next choice of Masterson has an ERA over 8 as well so i don't know what to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeuceBlades Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Or just keep bashing teams to death, that always works in the worst case scenario Did i read that right? Blalock has 8 HR in 19 games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rookie_rick Posted August 5, 2008 Author Share Posted August 5, 2008 Or just keep bashing teams to death, that always works in the worst case scenario Did i read that right? Blalock has 8 HR in 19 games? Not just that. He has 5 of them against me in the 3 games. So he isn't doing well, i'm just pitching extremely poorly. :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
