August 16, 200521 yr I know Felix is only 19, but if I had to take 1 young pitcher to start a team with, right now it's Zach Duke. I'll take the young stud lefty over the young stud righty everyday(not to discount our own very young and talented Olsen and Vargas, they'd be picked down the line). 903921[/snapback] Dont forget Kazmir too. He is playing in a touch division to pitch in AL East. And really in the second half has been starting to become a solid option. I think next year that kid could become something special. But, he had a good solid rookie campaign. Though I do totally agree, the Lefty over the right almost 90% of the time.
August 16, 200521 yr Passion, at this point, do you still take Duke over The King? 904090[/snapback] This season...yes. Duke has seen more already and a left hander with his stuff is so valuable. In the future..who knows. Felix still has not pitched against a good lineup. Like I said before everyone's favorite 20 game loser, Mike Maroth dominated the royals even more then Hernandez did in this game. From Maroth's game against the Royals and from Manager Buddy Bell on the Royals performance. The kid pitched a good game, but he threw to the same place the whole game and we didn't make adjustments. You've got to have the courage to make adjustments, to live with a plan. It is frustrating." :plain The Royals blow, and Im sorry if I cant go bonkers for a great pitching performance against them.
August 16, 200521 yr Yeah, I can't wait to see what happens when he faces one of the AL's killer lineups. I just hope he stays injury-free and never comes to the National League.
August 16, 200521 yr holy crap this guy is bad ass i havent heard of him until today. this guy doesnt get recognition because of seattle. wow still though will be nice to see this guy grow.
