May 3, 200422 yr I'm sorry, I can't deal with DO anymore. And quite frankly, I think too much attention is being given to other possible replacements. - We have three lefties in the pen right now. That is way too many, and you can see it in situations like today's game where Matt Perisho, a lefty specialist, pitches to righties and it bites us in the butt. - DO is stinking up the joint right now. No need to elaborate we all know the numbers. - Phelps had experience last year as a starter, and did alot better than job than not only we expected at the time but was the best of all the replacement starters and was way better than DO has been. I say send DO down, put Phelps in the 5th slot and call a righty up to the pen. Say maybe a Ben Howard or something. Phelps gives you the same thing DO does, except he is alot more effective and has more room for improvement than DO has.
May 3, 200422 yr Gracey to start? Are you insane? why not? you guys said anybody is better than DO. He has seamt like he can get people out and not walk guys.
May 3, 200422 yr Start Benitez. He's been so good its just a waste to have him only throw one inning every other game. Also I think we should bench Cabs since he's in a slump and play Lenny.
May 3, 200422 yr I'm making a reasonable call here. You are just talking trash. Juanky, seriously speaking now. Phelps has allowed 13 hits, 2 BB, and has only K'ed 5. BAA is .419!
May 3, 200422 yr I wish Phelps could start so he could burn and u could lay off of Oliver!!! All this hate and negativety towards Oliver is whats killing him right now! Starting and relieveing are 2 different things!
May 3, 200422 yr I don't think you can send him down to the farm because of his veteran status. Not sure though. I believe they would have to trade or release him. Someone tell me if I'm right or not.

BAA is .419! and what are Darren's stats? Yeah, but those will only get worse when he starts going through the lineup two and three times.
May 3, 200422 yr 37 hits, 7 BB, 17 K's in 26.1 innings, .399 BAA. Phelps has 7.0 innings in the books BTW.

Well Oliver's Average against is .385, against a much larger sample size Oliver's Slg% is higher Phelps has a 3.86 ERA Phelps has yet to give up a homer, Oliver is setting records for homers allowed Oliver has allowed more runs than innings pitched Still want Oliver over Phelps?

May 3, 200422 yr Don't take this the wrong way (it's sad I even have to say that but what I'm about to make reference to is always overexaggerated just like references to a certain religion that has it's religious center in the Middle East), but: I think AngelEyez is reverse racist.
