this is last year and this year .. the guy fukkin sucks

[bruins35]

phil fukking hughes

bingo we have a winner

[Big Bear]

Mike Pelfrey pitching tonight against a red hot Tampa team.

[LT Profits]

Ivan Nova

[You mad bro]

Ivan Nova

nova sometimes get run support so its hard to fade this guy lol

unlike phil hughes where run support sometimes doesnt even matter

[LT Profits]

nova sometimes get run support so its hard to fade this guy lol

unlike phil hughes where run support sometimes doesnt even matter

That's just it, Nova needs run support to get wins, his numbers are actually worse than Pelfrey's

[You mad bro]

That's just it, Nova needs run support to get wins, his numbers are actually worse than Pelfrey's

i know but if you want to fade its hard to fade nova .. he can give up 5 runs in 5 innings and get a win lol

[Melda]

Jooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooe blanton, hands down......

Or my boy carlos carrasco.

[Melda]

people posting pitchers they probably just a lost a bet on, Pelfrey Dickey, are bad but not as bad as Joe Blow Blanton or Carrasco. I am Cleveland all the way too.

[greenhippo]

That's better than posting a pitcher who isn't even in the majors.

[Big Bear]

will Joe Blanton get to pitch in MLB again ?

[stealthyburrito]

Jooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooe blanton, hands down......

Or my boy carlos carrasco.

Blanton retired 10 days ago

[No coincidences]

Blanton retired 10 days ago

To do what? Becoming a professional hot-dog eater?

My vote goes to both Hughes and Pelfrey. Both Twins. Definition of insanity, expecting something different from these jagoffs and trotting them out there every fifth day.

Kind of sickening to know he's made north of $30,000,000 over the past 5 years. He can have all the hot dogs he damn well wants.

sorry i had my joe blanton updates turned off.

Looks like Nova had an excuse.

[daneblazer]

hard to argue against Mike Pelfrey right now

[Big Bear]

True. That Dodgers line-up is sick when they can have Crawford, Kemp, Eithier, Puig in the line-up at the same time.

Phil Hughes on the other hand has won his last 2 starts i believe.

[CMNoney]

LOL @ anyone who said Phil Hughes.

He's been amazing for the Twins. Just needed to get out of Yankee stadium.

for some reason people hate phil hughes.. not sure why i think it has something to do with his days as a Yankee.

McAlister for the Indians might currently be the worst pitcher.

Honorable mention to Doubront, Peacock, and Colby Lewis.

[jay89]

Wandy rodriguez and Kevin correia

Worst pitcher for tomorrow:Edinson volquez and an honourable mention to Wade Miley.

[Chi_archie]

Wei Chung-wang for the brewers


7.2 innings pitched
19 hits
15 earned runs
5 home runs
3.13 whip

I've watched that dude pitch a few times -- he'd be better off underhand lob-tossing the ball to home plate.

Blanton used to b ok. Won rings as starter with philly

[CollegeOverUnder]

Ehhhh this list is kinda funny I don't have a problem with to many of these pitchers. I mean morales, vogelsong, Jimenez , arroyo, and Miley are being listed in this equation. I understand they arnt superstars but their still quality pitchers

[etothep]

If you're going solely off their performance thus far this season, I'd have to give Paul Maholm my vote

[Chi_archie]

Wei Chung-wang for the brewers

oops just say it was for starting pitchers

kid is a rule V draft pick that only pitched 47 career milb innings all in the gulf coast low low short season A ball

brewers trying to hide him all year, but they will have to make some hard decisions soon I think

[manny24]

Freddy Garcia's last year (2012 i think) it was almost unfair fading him

free money every start

who is the old washed up guey getting his last go around this year?

nice thread Creature

[Big Bear]

the problem is even after a few bad starts these guys get removed from the rotation unless they have a big contract..

[daneblazer]

Clay Bucholtz is bad right now. Not the worst, but he's pretty bad. Won't be surprised if he's hiding an injury.

Correia has the worst ERA among eligible pitchers. If we're debating fringe starters we can be here all day

[BennyBigNuts]

Blanton retired 10 days ago

Man, that's actually hard to believe he retired.
You figure there woulda been some team to offer him something.
Hate to see him go.
Made more money fading him than any other pitcher other than Ian Kennedy as a Yankee.

[Big Bear]

Clay Bucholtz is bad right now. Not the worst, but he's pretty bad. Won't be surprised if he's hiding an injury.

Yes please name your top 10 fringe starters.

I need some fade material. Yes i know i could look at stats and records but sometimes a pitcher is better than his stats/record...

For example Correia of the Twins just pitched a great game 2 days ago. But he was facing the worst hitting team ever in a pitcher friendly park...

[smoke a bowl]

Chris Young for Seattle and all White Sox starters not named Sale or Quintana.

I'll give you 10 bad starters, but the lines on their games will be priced accordingly. A better idea may be looking at pitchers who have been pitching over their heads and will fall back down to Earth. Guys like Mark Buehrle, Aaron Harang, etc.

Hector Noesi
jonathan Pettibone
Ricky Nolasco
Vidal Nuno

Zach McAllister - not one of the 10 worst, but has been awful lately
Clay Bucholtz - ditto

Brandon Maurer
Mike Boslinger
Scott Carroll
Jacob Turner
Paul Maholm
Brad Peacock

Flirting with disaster...
