OLIVER PEREZ

[Rollotommasi]

is he done ??

this looks like the 4th awful game in a row (5th if we count the error against the Pirates)


i've read that his fastball lost velocity

is it true ??

[moose32]

yeah he looks terrible. no control and low velocity

[moose32]

actually settled in now. velocity is still down though

[Roberto Clemente]

Yeah...he has pretty much struggled at various points during his entire carrer.

When he is on, he is a filthy lefty. He has tremendous velocity for a lefty and a good slider.

He is an enigma. At some points during his stay in Pittsburgh I thought he was the greatest thing since sliced bread. Then in other starts he would struggle to hit 91mph and give up less then 6 runs.

I'm going to probably drop him after next week.

The guy is Mr. Inconsistency.

Imho, the Mets have a good upcoming schedule. Low scoring teams on the horizon: SD, LA, CIN, HOU, WAS x2.
There are some high scoring teams too like PHI, ATL, FLA. This might be an opportunity to spot start Perez.
