I mean, we gave up our 2 best prospects for a 38-year old who has a 4.94 ERA through 14 starts. These are moves that set franchises back.

 

Couldn't agree more. Lot's of time for Dickey to turn it around but so far...

Dickey has a hangnail..there had to be a reason..

 

He's scared of clouds, and fog is just clouds that are close to the ground.

Something's wrong with Dickey, he's only walked about 2 per 9 the last 3 years and now he's walking nearly 4 this year? I hope it's due to some injury and not because he's declining... he's here for 2 more years god dammit.

Delayed: fog...

 

What in the f*** is that? Fog never stopped a baseball game I've ever seen

 

It's bad enough that if a ball was hit to the outfield, it wouldn't be found until tomorrow.

That O-swing% was never really sustainable, was it? I don't think he'll continue to be this bad but he won't be what he was imo.

Have you seen Knuckleball?

 

I assume you're talking about the fact a knuckleballer doesnt generate as much stress on the arm and can pitch later in age?

 

Even tho thats true, a 39-40 year old is a 39-40 year old and they experiance pretty much the same soreness to the rest of the body as most other guys that age. They will get back pain and feel other nagging soreness just out of being old for professional sports. Even Hurl himself spoke on this topic a few weeks ago saying his age might not effect his arm but the guy is going to still feel the pains of any other 40 year old guy.

This is true. Dickey's arm hasn't been the problem, it's been his back, hasn't it?

Off-topic: Can we acquire Tonya Harding and her crow bar to take out JPA?

 

When's the next time we play Detroit? I'd love for Prince to run him over lol
