With Vargas pithcing tonight, Willis going tomorrow, and Mitre finishing the series in NY that would leave Moehler to start the home opener??? Will Olsen be brought up to start the Opener? Thoughts? Comments?

I was kinda upset when I saw that Moe was pitching opening day. Eventhough he can be good I don't trust him. Hopefully its Olsen. :thumbup

olsen isnt pitching until the 15th

Our only solution is to kill him...

THAT Blows... So I guess Brian gets the nod

Lets go Moe. Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.

I saw Moehler get his first actual hit (single up the middle, 2 rbi's) last season.

 

Was awesome heh

having johnson or nolasco start the home opener would be a better solution

Brian Moehler = Darren Oliver = Al Leiter = Ismael Valdez

I'm not trying to be naive and ignore his last start, but it doesn't mean he is definitely going to struggle in that start too.

Very true... He tends to be horrible one night and hot the other.. Will see, Home opener some pressure, he better step it up!!

Well, that's when he's being called up. But since he's supposed to make a 'Burque start before that, he could reasonably just head to Miami without having made that start and get the ball for the Home Opener.

 

I hope Olsen gets the ball, personally. If not maybe Nolasco/Johnson.

Let's just hope that Moehler pitches well at home. Any pitcher could have gotten shelled in Houston.

true, however i dont think girardi will pull the plug on moehler after 1 start..

I thought his first hit was an infield hit that he barely beat out.

God no. I'm paying money for the home opener and I really hope they don't throw that Moehler sh*t at me.

It aint that much money..... Its not like we cant score some runs for him....

I know. I wasn't too thrilled when I saw this because of his last performance. He is really struggling right now.

 

I'd like to see a stronger option for the home opener...Nolasco perhaps?

Lets go Moe. Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.

 

 

 

 

I can't believed I chuckled at this. :plain :lol

 

I honestly don't care who starts the opener. As long as we fight, win or lose, I'm happy.

I think it makes sense to start a vetran for the home opener - there are bound to be nerves for the first game; hopefully Moehler will be more relaxed (and more effective) than his first start.

Sure, but I'd keep him on a very short leash if I were Girardi.

Moe suckz but wat are his home stats arent they better than on the road?

:crossfingers

The organization owes him the Opening Day nod. After last years $60 million dollar team couldnt score any runs for him the entire first half last year he deserves a shot.

 

With that said.....short leash Joe G.......short leash.

Let him start but a very short leash. Getting blown out at the home opener really doesn't win fans over.
