Jose Contreras, shades of 04

Couldnt be more wrong. He is not walking people laying on his forkball. Today he is being told to throw fastballs down and away to every hitter. They are either spraying the balls to RF or pulling them into the hole. His control is not off at all, 40 or his 58 pitches have been strikes. He needs to focus inside, or the Widge needs to f***ing stop calling outside pitches every at bat.

Pirates have the second best BA at home in the NL. They must know where all the little holes are or something. But seriously, that surprised me.

 

 

You realize that they get to play against these crappy NL teams a lot. If the sox were in their division, they would win about 130 games.

dye, crede, pk,thome,jenks, all should be allstars: we know one thing contreras is gunna take a spot on the team, with the way hes been pitching its too bad 1 or 2 will get left off...

Are you on crack, he is 8-0 with a sub 4 ERA. Probably the most if not the 2nd most dominant pitcher since last years all star break.

what's everybody think about making a trade for a back-up catcher?

um, Uribe is getting hot.

 

 

he can carry a club for a month... this is his run, b****es. :bringit

2b by juan, BA and contreras next :rolly

Drive him in Brian.

I'll pass. Widge plays once a week at most.

DJ is absolutely schooling Hawk right now

sub-4 doesnt do him justice.

 

3.43

 

but boy, that does look as good as the 1.41 he had when he came off the DL, or the 3.15 coming into this game!

yes, i know. but those hitters have been so great, they should all go. i just think that if contreras keeps this up then....

Someone just needs to have a f***ing chat with him, and tell him to fold up the chair on the outside corner, and move back and forth a bit. Some inside pitches would do his CERA wonders.

Such an awful hitter. Can't even get hte run over.

it does seem like widge catches some awful games.

Then what? You think that its a shame if Contreras goes. You are talking about someone who carried this team last year, and has been dominant this year, and hasnt lost a game!!! Seriously, check your opinion on this one.

Uribe with some special baserunning.

 

He should be at third, however loves 2nd so much.

back-up huh, i hear that Joe Mauer guy is doing pretty good, we could probably swing him for a couple mill a year right? :P

Should still score on a base hit.

2 outs.......BA is worse than contreras at hitting :rolly

leadoff 2b, uggghhh i hate NL ball!!!!!

Might have scored on the groundout if BA knew what he was doing.

Edited by jphat007

Was Contreras walking to 1st?

Leadoff double goes for nothing, nice work guys.

75 pitches after 4 for Duke.

Anderson's inability to execute is magnified in an NL park. I hope Mack gets 2 starts this weekend.
