yea...im serious...im not giving up on him...but i had real high expectations of him...his breaking ball is pretty impressive...but his fastball isnt nearly as explosive as ive read about...
I thought he was pretty damned impressive for his debut. He was electric until that last inning ... and he still had a pretty good start.
I see him as this month's Jered Weaver.
The difference is Chad's here to stay, while Weaver's already back in the minors.
and i guarantee u that jereds stay in the minors wont be long...
I don't think anyone expects Jered to stay in the minors long ...
And Billingsley did pretty well. His FB topped at 96 (I think?), his breaking curveball was crazy, he had a sub-3.5 ERA in his first start, and he pitched three no-hit innings.
Bitter, maybe? I've read some of your posts, and you are just bitter towards the Dodgers as a whole. Don't get me wrong, I hate the Angels, but I don't come onto your board to talk about your terrible offense or the great signing of Jeff Weaver or the incredible bat of Casey Kotchman.

Eh. It's a public forum, and the first amendment still stands. He can post where he pleases.

What did you want, exactly? A CG shutout?
LOL...i didnt expect cg shutout...that would be really impressive by anyone in their rookie year...but i guess i expected at least 5 ks...and a longer outing then 5.1 innings...
