Oliver had a bad night, it happens. If Beckett would've had the same outing, you would've said oh well, but since it's our fifth man, you say he sucks. Makes a lot of sense! :mad : Besides, we've got Burnett coming back soon.

bumped and reopen.

 

 

 

lets just take a gander at this little thread.

Can we make a rule that he isn't allowed to start outside of JRS? Have Phelps start every 5th road game and Oliver start every 5th home game or something?

why so many threads on DO?

 

not sure what your tryin to prove here

Trying to prove he is right.

he and EVERYONE else

 

no one thought he was going to be anything more than Mike Tejera

just trying to prove people that ole Das isnt as dumb as he sounds.

 

 

 

you know....since 90% of the board were all giving :thumbup to signing Oliver, calling me an idiot for saying he would suck.

read the threads ramp.

 

 

especially those upon the signing and just prior to it.

Ok, you were right. It seems odd to me that a fan of any team would take pride in correctly predicting a negative for the team.

there is being positive and there is being informed, the fish have 4 high quality starters if anythign all D.O. does is make the "fans" apreciate the greatness of the others...

as a marlin fan it sucks to see oliver take the hill every fifth night and fail miserably.

 

 

but you know what?

 

 

expectations were raised after last year.

 

 

mediocority can no longer simply be accepted.

 

 

hell i would love to see a mediocore Darren Oliver right now...I would be thrilled.

 

 

but as a baseball fan....it pains me when all the bandwagon homers try to talk the talk and have no knowledge.

 

 

I know what the response will be.

 

I am spoiled.

 

Meh.

 

 

There are better options than Darren Oliver and I as a fan cannot simply just sit here and throw up my hands and say...so what. who cares?

 

 

its just our fifth starter so who cares....we lost.

 

 

championship teams dont just shrug their shoulders and say who cares about their fifth starter getting drilled constantly.

 

 

Am I happy to see him fail? No.

 

 

Did I know he would fail? I was fairly sure of it. Why? Cause I have seen him pitch for 10 years. Why you people wanted to rip me for that in the beginning is beyond me other that the teal shaded glasses.

well Das, what would you like us to do?

 

as fans, all we can do is root on our team, we didnt sign the guy

stop being blind homers.

Enough.
