don't know i to feel about this pick-up?...i guess he can't be as bad as penny has been this year....by the way is jason shmidt ever gonna play again?.....this guy became carl pavano lite....
Granted he is not as good like he was with Atlanta., but he still is very consistent. His ERA is number 50 amongst starting pitchers. On average he would be the #2 pitcher on all most every team.
He has 15 quality starts which is consistent with a number #2 starting pitcher.
Lets hope Joe Torre will let him pitch into the 7th or 8th. Instead of putting a clown in that has no idea how to pitch like Bud Black has done. The Padrags relievers have blown 7 games of Maddux's when he left with the lead.
