December 12, 200223 yr What do you guys think? Do we try and make Damaso a starter? He very well could be, but it could blow in our faces in more than 1 way.... Here are my interpretations of what could happen...... 1. Marte Joins the rotation, and does phenominal..... 1-5 were solid. 2. Marte joins the rotation.... does horrible... big question mark in our rotation again. 3. Marte Joins the rotation...... does great and our bullpen suffers, cant get the ball to Koch. 4. Marte joins the rotation.... he sucks, bullpen sucks, and we suck.
December 12, 200223 yr leave him in the bullpen...its the only positive move in the KW era...lets not screw it up
December 12, 200223 yr I agree with baggs....and if we try to start him, how the hell is he going to get outs? He has two good pitches, a slider and a fastball...that's it, to my knowledge anyways....not only that, but if he suffered dead arm during the year, and he was pitching from the pen, how the hell is he gonna get through 3 innings, let alone 6 or 7?
December 12, 200223 yr I'm with everyone else, leave him in the pen. I like having a guy in the pen who has a ton of stamina, but with 2 pitches, he isn't a starter, he's a damn good reliever though.
December 12, 200223 yr i gotta agree to leave him in the pen, im thinkin we will get a solid 5th guy in the offseason. Anyways, if there is anyone with the great stuff to start in our pen now it is Porzio. I can imagine it, 22-5 2.40 era CY YOUNG WINNER!!!

He still sucked. Leave Marte in the pen, hes great there, besides with what KWs going to do for our rotation this offseason we wont need it!
