Meant to say, these guys are my idea of IE's since they start and go 5 or 6 innings.

I don't think a guy who goes only 5 innings very often would be referred to as an innings eater. That is just my take.

Kevin Millwood was the best example of an innings eater this team has had in years... just sayin

The problem with that is Milwood was the number 1 pitcher for those Rangers teams...As a 5th starter that wouldn't be all that bad.

As a 5th starter it wouldn't be bad, but I think I might want my 4th to be better than that if I am going to the playoffs. That might be a ways off though.

to me an Inning Eater is a pitcher who goes at least 6.2 innings in 95% of his starts and keeps his team in the games. a 4.5+ ERA doesn't cut that

He was relied on as the number one starter though. That's the problem with him as a Ranger. JD will never let that happen again I pray.

30-34 as a ranger with 4.5ERA and he was the best we could throw out there

Well that makes about 4/5 opinions I've heard today. Best one was 4/5 starters who can't be called on to be a 3.
