I've owned him since week one and I replaced the hole in my minors slot with Anibel Sanchez....I don't wanna drop another prospect just to put him back....
Of course I'm saying this because I own Weaver....but seriously. If they were to send him down now...they would be making the biggest mistake. I have no words for that kind of stupidity. If they send him down they deserve for him to be injured in a fluke AAA accident and never pitch for the franchise again.
Good God.... 4 wins (probably) in 4 starts. He hardly walks anybody, I don't think he's even been in a 2 runners on base situation yet. You're only 5 games out in the AL West. And you send him to the minors?....
You deserve to lose if you do something that bonehead. Maybe Jered's just on a streak and he takes a turn south at some point, but for God's sake, ride that streak as long as it lasts.
That's the first rule of coaching no matter what sport it is, if you gotta a hot guy, play him.
Weaver, the Angels' first-round draft pick in June 2004, reduced his ERA to 1.37 and became the second pitcher in franchise history to win his first four major league starts. The other was Bo Belinsky, who won his first five starts in 1962 and finished his rookie season 10-11.
If they send him down it will be a sad sad day for me, I've owned him since draft day and I don't have any more room in my minor slots as I've filled his.

If they send that to the minors then I don't know what to say. I will literally be at a loss for words.
Might as well send down Vladdy while they're at it.
