      Easily the worst pitcher in that rotation right now

      Will be interesting to see if they even give him a playoff start, could be similar to Barry Zito situation in world series.

      Better off starting Ogando right now

                      Might even have to put Oswalt back into the rotation

                      Dempster
                      Oswalt
                      Ogando
                      Harrison
                      Holland


                      That rotation can win in the playoffs

                        I still don't know why the front office hasn't sent him down to triple A

                        No question he has great stuff and potential, but he is having trouble putting it all together

                        They mention every game that the strike zone in Japan is different than here in the US. So why don't they send him to AAA for a few weeks to work on throwing strikes in the American strike zone so he can be ready in September/October?

                        And yet, no one can hit his 4 seam fastball. But when Maddux/Washington call for the slider, that's where he gets into trouble. Send him to AAA to work on the slider also.

                            Who cares how much was spent? It's clear he has mechanical issues, not talent issues, that need to be worked on. Isn't that what the minor leagues are for, development. Send him to AAA for a few starts to work on those things and call him back up in September so he is good for the pennant run.

                            He is unhittable when he is ahead in the count and throwing strikes. When he falls behind in the count and starts trying too hard to throw strikes thats when he gets hurt.

                                      Over 10 in this game was an easy call.
