Too early for Jon Niese?
Omar did say in Spring Training that he wouldn’t hesitate to use him this year if he was needed. Put as much stock in that as you like, but my bet is that it won’t be necessary. Give him a cup of coffee in September.
A good time to perhaps slot El Dookey in and see what he’s got.
so Johan, Maine, Perez for Philly?
yes ,,,guaranteed its planned to set the rotation that way
and so it begins…
F***ing shocker.
what letters fill in the *’s?
a and r
lol
el duque time!
did they happen to say what the injection was for? Groin or shoulder. Can you even get an injection on your groin?
i hope not
You can technically get an injection in any muscle/tissue that’s inflamed or causing you difficulty, but they are sometimes hesitant to give injections in certain areas - the groin being one of them.
But you figure that Clemens took quite a few in the butt, so why shouldn’t Pedro take one in the groin.
“Clemens took quite a few in the butt”
Yet Piazza was the one who got accused!
i need a shot of HGH in my groin area
lol
holy crap, that caught me off guard…
not really that funny, but i shot iced tea out of my nose :-)
cialis might be less painful lol
I thought it was “see Alice”
cialis helps in growth? didn’t know that
It was in the hip, he said, and was related to his groin. Pedro’s shoulder is fine, apparently.
he said it was for the hip
Give Pedro all the rest he needs. Pitch Santana ,Maine and Perez against Philly followed by Pelf Friday against St Louis. We won’t need Pedro (or whoever) until Sat July 26TH
agree perez should be pitching against the phllies
He has dominated them, but I’m just afraid of the Phills getting too many looks at Ollie…Though its been only 2-3 starts max, its compounded by seeing Santana earlier in the series who gives you basically the same look.
The same look? By virtue of what, the fact that they’re both lefties? They both have good stuff, and both are reputably very uncomfortable to face, but is that really a fair comparison? I’m asking genuinely, not in jest.
You’d rather break up the two lefty flyball pitchers, who have similar release points and movement (though Santana has better command, and of course that changeup).
They pitched back-to-back under Willie, as you know, and when Manuel took over he broke them up in the rotation first thing.
Pelfrey would be the perfect guy to put between those two, because he’s a righty and he has such a different style.
They both throw the same pitches, (FB, CH, SL), which each break similarly, given the left-handedness…Since they have the same arsenal, they both tend to attack hitters in a similar fashion (with Johan admittedly utilizing his CH more). Compare that to Maine who gets guys out with that rising fastball, or Pelfrey who uses the sinker.
In addition, Wagner also throws in a very similar manner as well.
Good call. Let’s get him healthy for the pennant chase.
or race… whichever.
Oh geez someone played the race card :-)
you all are punchy today.
And it begins.
dammit. I had “soreness” in my office pool. Also had ‘Personal Reasons” and “Rehab Start”. You know…..to hedge my bet.
OK…what lucky b*stard had “injection”.
