Maybe I'm still bitter that I traded him for Matt Cain in my dynasty...

Anyway

He'll get the Yankees and the Red Sox his next 2 starts, and was extremely lucky yesterday to allow only 1 run, he was horrible yesterday but stranded a village on base. His k rate was never great, his walk rate has always been mediocre, major league hitters just hasn't hit much against him. That will change, very soon...

This seems kinda contradictory to me...his success was because major league hitters haven't faced him, but his downfall will come when he plays the Yankees and Red Sox. When have they faced him? Seems like they have the same problem everyone else has had. :-?

plus the Yanks havent exactly been an offensive juggernaut without Matsui and Sheff and Slump-Rod...and i think he shut down the Mets pretty well

i'm hanging onto him until he gives me a reason to drop him...although Chad Billingsly is tempting me
