You are nit picking it. He also had 2 seasons in a row with an ERA over 5. Full seasons as you like to point out. And a career ERA of 4.5. I'm sick of waiting for him to "develop" into the pitcher he teases us that he can be. His potential has been determined. Same with Perez. He's done. Now, lets not get blinded by Odorizzi's decent year. It is hands down his best season ever. Never forget Mauer's Monster year in 2009. They threw the bank at him thinking he has finally stepped over the line into true eliteness. It was false. I think Odo is in for a big fall next year. We need to tread lightly there.

But enough with this debate. I would take young arms with potential over dead arms with a long track record of mediocrity, or worse. Besides, you picked Stewart and Thorpe as the two I needed to defend. I would give them their shot for being unknown commodities, but they arent the guys I would have picked. So this argument isnt even real.

What’s this potential??

Thorpe was getting hit in the minors.

I chose Thorpe because you said you liked what you saw. Stewart because he was taken #4 overall.

Stashak is a reliever so he can’t be a replacement. Littell has found his success as a reliever.

Thorpe and Stewart have been groomed as starters and neither has shown they are anywhere capable of pitching in a big league rotation.

Another weak pop up got Astudillo

On the first pitch, with 2 on.

The guy doesn’t fucking get it. Stop playing him.

And again, where the hell is this potent offense? Against the Tigers even. 103 losses. Jesus. Get going already. Don't fuck this up against Gardenhire and his merry bunch of light wts.

Inning 6. This is where Odo implodes. And after we are down by 4 or 5, some tough guy will hit a solo homer. /yawn

And Castro? Yeah, keep taking the HBPs
