D-Train getting rocked

[jpbusta]

He is very shaky today. Just allowed a grand slam to brian dallimore and was replaced by tommy phelps.

Piece of garbage..

who cares about his pitching stats... did he get an AB???

[Baseballer02]

I'm thinking this might hurt my team's ERA. <img src=/forums/images/smiles/kiss.gif> Also making me look like a fool after the rampage I went on when a trade having me sending Willis to another team got vetoed, all the praise I gave the kid.

[Green Monstah]

lol, I love it....the leader of my main league has him and he has 9's in both WHIP and ERA. This should drop them down a little bit

[Slow Pitch]

The D-Train hit a solid double in his plate appearence.

I wonder if the D Train has ever played the OF or 1st base. If he has I would play him everyday and use him as a closer.

[LBJackal]

Well he's hitting better than anyone in Florida's lineup. He looks like the next Brooks Kieschnick. Use him for a few innings one day, and use him as a pinch hitter the next day.

If not for the fact that it would be extremely embarassing for the other hitters, Dontrelle would probably not be last in the lineup. But I guess for games where he gets taken out early (such as: after 1 IP) you'd be stuck with relief pitchers hitting in the middle of the order. But it'd be something if your pitcher was in the top half of the lineup

True, Dontrelle was not very good today, but he got very unlucky. The first batter of the 7 run second inning popped foul to third, but the ball was dropped: one out that should have been made. The fourth batter, Dallimore, hit a fly ball to deep left, and it bounced off the left fielder's glove and over the fence for a grand slam: another out that should have been recorded. If not for those two dropped balls, there would have been 2 runners on, no runners in, and 2 outs when the 5th hitter of the inning came up. The rally then would not have lasted that long, and D-Train probably would have been able to settle down and pitch well over the next few innings. He should have ended up with 4 runs allowed in 6 innings, not 9 runs allowed in 1 inning.
