Thoughts on Colby Lewis Please

[Ice House]

Is anyone impressed with this guy? He is a -116 favorite tonight but he is not that good is he?

Can't believe he is the #2 starter for Texas. Holland is way better. I feel like there is no way Rangers lose 2 in a row but does anybody out there trust Colby Lewis?

[Thehusker]

Yes he is Cobra Commander out there on the mound hasn't last in playoffs yet

[stogies]

My advice is to take advice from someone besides Thehusker who don't know much about baseball if he claims Lewis hasn't lost in the playoffs yet.

[King Mayan]

He'll get pounded today.

[Living The Dream]

Agreed, he gets poinded... Garcia a damn good pitcher for Cards

[Regul8er]

Guys Garcia hasnt been all that impressive in the playoffs. 5.74 ERA and .279 BA against in 3 starts! He's young, and he has never seen well above 200 innings in a season! Some guys don't react well.

[Regul8er]

On the other hand, Lewis has a 3.86 ERA and .205 BA against in 2 playoff starts (both on the road worth noting). He threw over 200 INN last season, plus 4 or 5 playoff starts. Colby has been in this situation before, while Garcia has not.

Take it for what it's worth.

variety of pitches. choker.

isnt he the one that blew it in the AllStar game?

[lakerboy]

No that was wilson.

[Regul8er]

I think CJ Wilson blew the game for the AL. I dont even think Lewis was an All Star!

[Glitch]

thanks. my mistake

[paco]

Cards win again tonight.

[No coincidences]

Holland is better than Lewis?

Heh?

[Ice House]

Holland is better than Lewis?

Heh?

Derek Holland the lefty.... he is legit. When he is on , he is dirty.

Shouldn't Rangers have a more rested
bullpen tonight?

Not really......the Cards had 2 nights off before last nights game, and the most pitches anyone in the pen threw was only 11 by Salas. Both bully's are fine for tonight.
