Hollyberry Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 What do you think should/will happen to JJ when his next start comes around? I would love to send him down just so he could get his act together but we dont have anyone else. Ob is pitching like crap and so is Kim.

Guest FishFanInPA Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 send the whole team down....this is pathetic..... Obermueller needs to go completely.....so does Kim.....the whole team for the most part is having a sophomore slump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSwift25 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Umm...why? He's proven from rehab he can handle the minors just fine, and we saw last year he can handle the majors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beinfest4Prez Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 JJ has continually improved in each start.  Sheezus. He's starting to look better. I give him 4 more starts before there should be any talk of finding himself in the minors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at the box score, I guess it's serviceable, but he was pretty much 1-1 balls to strikes and if he came near the strike-zone, generally, it was getting pounded. Plus, I found it alarming that his velocity was incredibly spotty tonight.

benmlb12935 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Oh Johnson pitched horrific tonight. He had no control and was lucky to only allow two runs. Â Â On a whole, this was probaly one of the worst games Ive ever witnessed in Person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pierremvp1 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 JJ looked awful. He is obviously not MLB ready and was probably rushed back. It does no good for him to keep him up in the majors. Send him down for a couple of starts in AA or AAA and hopefully he'll be ready after the All-Star break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacyofCangelosi Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Unless theres something we dont know about his health, he wasn't rushed back. Hes basically pitching his spring training games in the regular season. Give him a few more starts before he gets sent down or sent to the bullpen. As for obermueller, he was a serviceable starter earlier this year, and honestly, most teams don't have anyone much better as their long reliever.

FishFF Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 He's only gonna improve each start, and its not like we have many options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legacyofCangelosi Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 I don't see what good sending him down is gonna do. The only good it does is not having a pitcher go out there every 5 days and get shelled, but allow him to continue pitching a lot of innings, as ooposed to putting him in the pen. Of course, due t othe fact our pitchign options are low that may not be a good idea, but if we had a repalcement it would be best, not right now but if he gets shelled again his next two or three starts.

Hammerhead Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 I'd like to know why in God's name Obermueller was sent out to start a second inning of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Godfather Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 I was at the game tonight. Why was JJ taken out after 4? He seemed fine to me, what was his pitch count, I didn't see... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Altamonte Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Anyone notice JJ had 6 Ks his problem is control right now. That will come shortly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 He actually looked decent when he got ahead of batters but that was very rare. Â Just can't get the damn ball down. If he was throwing like that in his minor league stints I can't imagine they'd have brought him up yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
