He had 7 quality starts in a row previous to this start.

 

Yeah, but he's not giving us quality starts when we need them. I mean, you always love a quality start, but baseball is hugely situational, meaning there are times when it's imperative that we get that "quality start" and for the past year and a half, he's consistenly been a momentum killer. Just as Halladay was that guy who almost ALWAYS broke the teams losing streak. He was a true ACE in that critcal senser as well. Dickey comes out and shits the bed at times when we need him to continue to help give the team momentum. Like tonight where his team gives him four runs against a weak hitting team that is 3-7 in it's last ten and scuffling huge.

Dickey comes out and shits the bed at times when we need him to continue to help give the team momentum. At critical times, he comes out and shits the bed completely. Like tonight where his team gives him four runs against a weak hitting team that is 3-7 in it's last ten and scuffling huge.[/quote']

 

Anyone who expects Dickey to perform like Halladay is setting themselves up for huuuuuuge disappointment.

 

Just because AA was an idiot and gave up a package that should have netted a real ace, doesn't mean the guy he got was one.

Dear Lord Olerud

Give me the strength to suffer a classic RA Dickey start

And give us this day our daily fap

And smite all those who trespass against the win streak with your mighty overclocked CPU

And forgive those who fail to wig out every time the club is losing

On Earth, as you do in Digital Heaven

Amen

I agree with some of your points. He is no Halladay, that's for sure.
