Someone spilled ammonia in the stadium. It is awful in here.

[Baldkin]

Well, strikes early in the count are good, Jim.

Who would have thought back in June that Nelson would end up as our worst starter this year?

At the game tonight. Jimmy looks like crap.

[adambr2]

Starting the season, Jimmy Nelson had 8 quality starts in his first 11 starts.

 

Since then, he has 3 in his last 20.

[adambr2]

Well, if we're going to go on a losing streak before the end of the season, let's do it right. Only a few games out of the #6 draft spot.

He's not good, back end starter at best. He has a good month or two each year and is horrendous the rest of the season. People are/were way too high on the guy. Garza is the same pitcher in his current state, or perhaps even a tad better yet people want his head chopped off. Blinded by the "he came from our system" positivity.

[Outlander]

In theory I don't mind Braun being traded but man there is a chance this team can be really pathetic and hard to watch without him next year. Especially if they hold back guys like Brinson and Hader.
