Unearned runs.

C'mon, Jake. Get those 5 outs per inning! Can't be too hard!

Unearned runs.

 

I don't think that really matters. Scouts more likely judging Peavy based on stuff and whether or not Braves are hitting him hard.

Can't think of one thing he does well.

He's pretty close to being a zero-tool player. I've always thought his defense was severely overrated, but I'm not sure what defensive metrics say about him.

Error scores again.

Phegley had a passed ball on a 3rd strike and Morel booted a ball. Would love to know what Peavy thinks of his defense right now.

Was rios booed in his 1st at bat? I really hope so,tired of his attitude...

 

I wish he'd been booed as well, but he's not worth expending the energy on. Hopefully we'll be rid of him soon.

The eye test tells me he blows.

Yep, him/Flowers/Axelrod just don't seem like they can cut it at the MLB level.

His D has been bad ever since the back problems cropped up.

I always thought Axelrod's place on the roster, if he has one, is the old DJ Carrasco garbageman/innings eater/emergency starter role.

Axelrod will wind up hanging on at the big league level for a fairly long time as a 5th/6th starter I'll bet. Flowers, not sure if he can hang on as an adequate backup or not.

 

Morel, who knows.

A defensive error and a home run allowed. Sounds like more of the same

Peavy getting dinked around now. Fun stuff.

Some things never change with this team.

I wonder how many 27 year olds with horrible stuff and a career ERA of 5.10 get a lot of chances in today's baseball?

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 20, 2013 -> 03:23 PM)
Great piece of hitting Rios.

Comcast on Yahoo sports reported Rios upset with Ventura for taking him out of last night's game. "Ventura should have spoken to me privately."

I think he'd make a serviceable 5th starter in the NL. I don't see much potential beyond that.

I hope he got a college degree, because his stuff belongs back in the independent league. I don't know how he was so effective so long, bless him.

Come on double play.

Nice job Youk
