Tell Me Why I Shouldn't Cut Nolasco?

Postby jmcampbe11 » Sun May 03, 2009 6:08 pm

Is anyone else as fed up with this guy as I am? He got hammered again today. At this point, should Nolasco still be owned in a 10 team league?

ERA WHIP BAA K's
April 2008 5.79 1.37 .261 12
April 2009 6.92 1.69 .327 22

He's the Adam laroche of pitchers. The highers BAA this year is attributed to his .391 BABIP and his historically bad defense behind him. His K-rate is higher, and his home run rate is lower. He should have a great season.

i must say that after having watched nearly every start of his this year, more than 1/3rd of his "earned" runs came as a result of piss poor defense behind him. hanley and uggla are brutal in the infield, and all 3 outfielders are atrocious. if you watched the game today it was pretty obvious that with a decent defense behind him he'd have given up only 2 earned runs. they are simply brutal.
