lucky for him. its only been one inning, he has alreayd walked 3, his era for the year is over 5.50 and his whip is over 1 and a half. he doesnt look good.
The ASA Group said in a newsletter just received today, that he is a go against along with Jason Marquis and Doug Davis. The like Matt Cain, Carlos Zambrano and Gil Meche.
even though the d-train is a work horse, i agree, he is not big time..... he gives you 200 plus innings, his era is average for the n league, and he has never had close to 200 strikeouts a year, so he is not overpowering...his biggest attribute, like EL dque, is that they hide the ball very well.. once you pick up the ball, both him and el dque become very hitable.........
