The PBP writer could have been more clear.

 

The last couple of sentences (following "In other news") were quotes from JJ, not the clod who can't get out of the 4th without giving up a half-dozen runs, and who, with any luck whatsoever will soon become part of a trade with Jacobs for an actual catcher.

aha

 

It probably didn't sit well with Hendrickson that the Marlins yanked him one start shy of meeting his first incentive clause. In addition to his $1.5 million base salary, Hendrickson could make an additional $50,000 each for 20 and 22 starts, and $100,000 each for 24, 26, 28 and 30 starts.

 

Samson probably informed him of the decision while wearing a Hamburglar costume

no wonder he was upset

 

yeah okay granted that's kind of lame....that probably wouldn't make anyone happy. But when you're not getting the job done, what do you expect?

WOW! This make me absolutely furious, and it makes me f***ing hate him even more. "Oh I'm so close, I'm right there!!" STFU you fool, we are trying to be competitive this year, we don't have time for you to work on sh*t you should already have working. Ugh he sucks at life.

 

Uh I think that quote was from Josh Johnson actually.

 

 

My bad. I apparently skipped right over the 2 parts right before the last line :lol

aha

Exactly. I could understand if we pitching decent and they did this because they didn't want him to make the frist incentive, but their doing this because he f__king sucks as a starter (I can see him having some success out of the pen).

Uh, I don't see how he's overreacting. Yeah, he sucks all kinds of ass but he said he'd rather not comment about it. Even if he has sucked, he still has a right to be pissed. A lot of pitchers would be pissed. He isn't calling anyone out or insulting anyone either so yeah, not a big deal.

No, he really has no right to be pissed whatsoever. If he is pissed at anyone it should be his own suck-ass self.

He's lucky he even got this close to his incentive clause. When your ERA is nearing ten for the past couple of months, you should take your demotion and be glad you've got a major league job. No other team would have given him as many chances to start as the Marlins.

This is all funny because other things I have read on him had these same comments in a different way. He was upset being pulled after just 4 innings while doing pretty well in his last start, but is taking the demotion to the pen pretty well. Seems as if these comments were taken out of context.

Trade him to the Royals for one of those sweet looking blue Royals jerseys to give away at a Marlins game. Stop bitching.

 

Those are definitely sick.

 

 

but you guys have it all wrong, Hendrickson is mad because they decided to not have him start the HR Derby BP pitching to Uggla, they said he needed to be able to throw strikes and they picked KEVIN GREGG over him... pretty sad...

If he's going to take this demotion like a little bitch then we should just cut him loose.

I blame the dude that sits in the upper deck every night that says words..

You know, that guy with the shirt and the hair and the earlobe? Yeah, he made Hendrickson do that bad, I know it.

I imagine he's probably upset at himself for the way he's pitched lately too. I'll give him credit for April & May, it was nice to see him come in and give us some solid outings to get us going early in the season. But he's going 4 innings lately.... and the way our bullpen's looked recently we can't win games like that.

 

With the arms we've got coming back from the DL and up through the system, he had to have seen this coming.

I'm not sure Cincy would have much of an interest in Hendrickson at GAB for eight or more starts there this season. Cincy's interest right now, even if they're motivated to move Ross one would think would be in prospects considering they're rebuilding and not in second tier starters.

 

But stranger things have happened. Speaking of Ross I've read a couple of places now that one thing he does bring to the table is the ability to shut down the running game of other teams, which has been a problem for the Marlins the last few years. That's not an endorsement just something I picked on the second time I read it since his name was mentioned as a potential Marlins target.

Hendrickson should thank God everyday he has a job with the Marlins . lets be honest he "chose" to sign with the marlins because no other team was interested I doubt after this years performance anyone else will be contacting Hendrickson about anything other a spring training invite

The one with the eyebrows and the nose?

It is obvious the lasik laser slipped and made Mark delusional as well as still being a bad pitcher.

He should sue the doctor.

He's a steaming pile something, atleast.

He hasn't won in ten starts, hasn't gone five innings in four of those, ERA slightly more than a gallon of gas, what exactly was he thinking. Did he think he was entitled to a spot in the rotation, dude you or anyone else is only good enough to be replaced by someone better, that's sports. On the bright side by becoming a reliever he can now throw his 100 pitches in two innings instead of four.

SLAM-ZULA!

 

n1, dude :notworthy

That reference in the article was about Josh Johnson not Hendrickson.

 

*Edit* I see I'm late on this. Sorry

I'll give him one thing - he was able to eat some innings and at the beginning of the season he was probably the best pitcher in our rotation at that time. But that has worn off and hitters have figured him out. He isn't cutting it as a starting pitcher anymore. He should embrace this move to the bullpen. There he might at least have some success and a future in the game.

Ball players, especially at the Major League level, have a lot of pride, and this has to be a shot to Mark's. Maybe he's too close to the situation to really be able to step back and look at how poorly he's done lately....I think I read where in his last 9 starts, he has an ERA of 9.00. I'm sorry, but that's not rotation-worthy. I think this is just Hendrickson's wounded ego talking, especially when a lot younger guys are taking his place.

:banana :lolup

He's not peaved, his comments are being deliberately misused to create the appearance of trouble. He will also reach his first incentive unless he is traded. He WILL start again in some double header, or rain delay game.
