Chris Waters

[Sports Guy]

Right along with the Beird (4 H, 1 BB 5 R/ER on 0 outs) and the continuing saga of George Sherrill n ot doing it.

Yea...Beird's outing was awful today and Sherrill being hurt by the homer is not all that surprising.

[Flosman]

Not surprising. But hey, at least he struck out 5 guys in 4 innings.:laughlol:

I would still give him one more start though. Then Penn will be able to take his spot after that if Waters struggles.

I would think we can take heart in this proformance is likely at a sustainable level.:eektf:

Honestly he did not look good but the defense really let him down also. He is a guy that can not afford to give the other team any extra outs. But like I said after the last start he has to be perfect or the ball is going to go very far.

I didn't see today's game, had football practice, so I can't comment on anything beyond the boxscore. So bad defense was part of the reason for the runs allowed? There's no errors according to the ESPN box score.

He hadn't pitched in 4 days. He's the guy who has to get regular work to stay sharp, which is why he'd be better off as a setup guy and not a closer on this team.

If Cintron wasn't such an awful fielder, maybe Waters' performance today wouldn't look so bad. :cussing:

Booted balls... balls off the tip of gloves, "perhaps" botched DP's.... it's a game of inches... or is the Football?

Also the Sun, too. Gotta blame the Sun for Cintron losing the pop-up in it in the 4-run 1st inning...

I think Waters deserves another start, this time with Castro at SS.

[Crazysilver03]

I think Waters deserves another start, this time with Castro at SS.

And Hernandez at catcher.

And against the Angels.

Opps, they don't play them until 2009.

Hey, Waters still has 2 options left. We can just bring him back up when we play the Angels.

[THELTSHOW]

Waters was okay today, give him some defense and a more generous umpire and he would have had some more success, but its safe to say that the "other shoe" dropped today.

[ChaosLex]

Where is the Chris Waters love today?

lol. How did I know that SG would bump this thread?
