Want to bet his next start is a 5 inning, 7 hit, 5 run job?

Yes. Keep hating. At 25 you were mucking stalls. He is over .500 in the major leagues.

Give credit where credit is due is all. They bombed Halladay. Couldn't touch Ken yet no credit.

Why is it that I am a hater for saying that a guy that came into the game with a 4.80 era is not a real good major league pitcher? Please point out the back to back good games that he has had this year....

You know him, we get it. Tell him if he pitches like that I'll stop pointing out all his flaws...

Give me a break. When you have a few bad outings to start a season and your ERA balloons it takes a long time to get it down. He's down to 4.4 and like I said saying someone sucks when they are 25 is not giving them much of a chance. 30 and we will see. You may be right. Maybe I just don't give up on people so quickly. More faith.

His last start was against the Marlins
5 innings
6 hits
6 runs
4 bb's
2 k's


You can root for him all you want but he was better as a rookie than he is now. He has pitched close to 400 big league innings. He has a lifetime era of 4.69. That is a pretty big sample size.

He plays in a Little League size park....We will look again in a few years.

Meanwhile ......Chuck who the hell is Daniel Nava and how the hell is he getting time, hitting .444 in left field for the Red Sox without a minor league career of significance?

It is a nice story but a mirage. He isnt a prospect.

He isn't a prospect because prospects are young, developing players who learn the game. This kid is fk'n Roy Hobbs with mini seasons before being quickly moved up through the system to the bigs.

What would he have to hit with 250-300 AB's to exceed your predictions for him.

I love Kendrick.. cause I'm a huge Phillies fan and I want all the players to do well, and I think he is doing well this year, considering he doesnt have the best control.. tho he has some good pitches.

I'm just not sure what the bolded part has to do with it... Halladay is the best pitcher of the past decade and just pitched a perfect game less than a month ago.

I'm just thrilled that Kendrick is smart enough to try to learn as much as he can from Halladay and try to follow his routine.. because if you work as hard as Halladay, that is the best way to learn more control over your pitches.
