canada-marlin24 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Eovaldi and two out runs and big innings. I think he's tired out but this guy needs to get over doing the same fucking shit all of the time. Hell give up a run and that leads to 4 more. Leads majors in 2-out runs and is pretty much up there in hits allowed too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Being tired out could be a big part of it now but it doesn't explain all his sucking since Fathers Day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yokofox33 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I'll be happy when we trade Eovaldi in the offseason. Dude has sucked pretty much all year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entendu Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 If we trade Eovaldi this offseason, we aren't going to get shit for him. I'd rather hold on to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe8512 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Evoldi has really blown lately. I get so discouraged when I see his name as the starter. It's worse than if Brad Penny or Hand was pitching how crazy is that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 well he's still in the rotation next year, at the very least until Jose gets back. At that point it's Jose-Alvarez-Cosart-Heaney(?)- and then down to Koehler vs Eovaldi at that point, barring a rookie emerging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Definitely too soon to give up on Nate. Right now its just knee-jerk reactions. He's at least got next year. Could his role be diminished in 2015 at least to start the year? Yes thats more than likely. But his ship hasn't sailed yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Eovaldi's sudden downturn has become another notch in why the Cosart trade was so huge for us. Amazing how well that's turned out for us thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SongInTheAir Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Eovaldi's sudden downturn has become another notch in why the Cosart trade was so huge for us. Amazing how well that's turned out for us thus far. Marisnick as an Astro- .265/.296/.326, 0.6 WAR Moran as a Hook (Astros AA)- .304/.350/.411 Martes in Astros Rookie Ball- 1 run, 5 hits, 12 strikeouts in 11 innings pitched Cosart as a Marlin- 2.05 ERA, 3.59 xFIP, 1.2 WAR Hernandez as a Marlin- horribly mishandled in favor of Donovan "God Damn" Solano Wates as a Zephyr- .252/.314/.333 The main point here will be Cosart vs. Moran. Marisnick and Hernandez will probably end up with similar WARs over the next few seasons, at least, and Wates will be nothing but a 5th outfielder if he ever plays in the Majors. Martes is a wild card here because he could develop into something, but he has a long way to go. Also, the draft pick is not insignificant. Overall, I don't hate the trade, but it was by no means a landslide in the Marlins' favor. At least not yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Ok ok Song, I gotta admit, as I was typing what I wrote I was thinking of how that could be misintrepreted and yes I know exactly what you mean. I guess I just meant that so far this trade has been quite fruitful for the Marlins. Cosart has been more than great and its helped fill in for Jose's absence, has stepped up when Alvarez has had his oblique issues, and has helped to bandage Eovaldi's recent suck. So yes, while the trade is more than just those factors, Cosart so far has been a very nice piece. That is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Card Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 If we trade Eovaldi this offseason, we aren't going to get shit for him. I'd rather hold on to him. I really disagree. I think Eovaldi will have plenty of value for many reasons. 1. Age/Cost/Service Time 2. Velocity/Stuff 3. Starting Pitcher 4. About 200 IP in 2014 This is not Jacob Turner. Eovaldi is early enough in his career that many teams will want him, and they'll pin their hopes on a "change of scenery" and/or "the great stuff/makeup/durability/etc". Eovaldi on the open market is probably worth around what Jared Cosart was, honestly. Maybe a tad less because he has more service time, but the circumstances are pretty damn similar.
