Carl Pavano


Recommended Posts

The only reason why Pavano gets a minor deal is because he was injured last year. 2009-2011, he was actually a fine pitcher. A 4.36 ERA in the American League averaging ~33 starts/214 innings per year is not bad at all.

 

It's funny that certain people who loved Mark Buehrle are probably going to hate it if we sign Pavano because it's the fun to thing to do at this time.

 

Pending both stay healthy, they'd likely put up similar #'s next year; the major difference being that Buehrle is ridiculously overpaid.

Not sure what the point would be.

 

Nolasco

Turner

Alvarez

Eovaldi

LeBlanc/whoever

 

2-3-4 we certainly want starting. So after Nolasco there's really only 1 spot available. I'd rather throw LeBlanc or Brad Hand out there and see if they amount to anything.

 

What about a 6 man rotation to protect the younger arms for this coming season?

Nolasco

Turner

Alvarez [or Perez]

Pavano

Eovaldi

LeBlanc/Hand/Whoever

LeBlanc would just go to the bullpen. It's mainly what he did last year. He's not a long-term piece; quite honestly, he didn't even do all that well as a starter last year. He's kinda not good. He's had a mediocre career as a starter despite pitching in two pitchers parks. He seems far better suited for a relief role + we could use the extra lefty in the pen.

 

Or, you know, we could just trade Nolasco. That would be great!

So 5 man rotation with my posted rotation minus LeBlanc/Hand/Whatever?

Yeah if they sign Pavano/Nolasco stays, it would be Nolasco, Pavano and the three young guys.
