    In Your opinion who is the Worst Starting Pitcher in MLB?

    Last year it was easily Joe Blanton but unfortunately he no longer gets to pitch in the big leagues....

    This year who is it?


    Taylor Jordan for the Washington Nationals gets my vote. If he is not sent down to the minors after today it might be worth a big play to fade him in his next start...

    Who else is really bad?

    Sometimes its just as profitable fading bad pitchers as it is betting good pitchers.

    Arroyo ? really ? no way he has some really dominant outings from time to time.

    Vogelsong is regressing for sure but he is also capable of being really good. I'm looking for pitchers who really suck.

    Arroyo is terrible right now. There's no one in the majors who is more hittable. He's in one of the worst stadiums for him too. I could argue Jordan, who has a career 4.2 era isn't anywhere near the worst either.

    Felipe Paulino- White Sox

    Fukkin gas can has given up close to 20 runs last 2 starts. Averages 1.5 walks per inning

    Paulino is on the DL. Might be done for good. Scheppers sucked, on the DL too.

    Villanueva is one. Jorge De la Rosa is pitching poorly right now. Lucas Harrell stinks. Mike Pelfrey is awful. Carlos Carrasco, but his days as a SP are numbered.

    usually guys that suck get told they are hurt and get put on the DL.

    same thing happened to Nova.

    If that's what this thread is about, pick one kid coming up from the minors who isn't a top prospect like that Boslinger kid this weekend.

    That or just fade an Astro not named Feldman or Keuchel

    i remember him from last year he is awful. Hopefully he makes the big leagues again soon.

    Another gas can is Daniel Bard if he ever gets to start again in MLB

    So far this year, I'd nominate Tanner Schleppers. He's on the DL now though, so no fade opportunities at the moment.

    dickey or arroyo right now.

    I think dickey will be worse as the season wears on.

    Don't know if he's the worst but he's definitely up there.

    Has to be the worst offseason signing.

    Franklin Morales pitched a gem at coors field tonight.

    Mike Pelfrey got lots of votes. I will definited keep an eye on him and consider fading him.

    It's a "was" now because they probably ruined his elbow trying to force him from reliever to starter - hands down, Tanner Scheppers from TEX.
