Dbacks bats have been sleeping the last two games, now they come alive.. I liked the lefty Rodriguez but he is getting shelled... Micah Owings looks like fucking nolan ryan out there.. Glad I took the stro's...

Re: The Astro's suck

well, he has allowed 7 hits in 5 innings, not all that good. i dont know why the stros leave a guy in to allow 8 runs in 5 innings, but they're not managed by the brightest man in baseball.

:nono

Re: The Astro's suck

Exactly mo.. What I meant to say is he looks like Nolan Ryan compared to Rodriguez.. I thought the stros had a little value tonight but it is not meant to be.. Phil Garner = to Ron Washington right now..

Re: The Astro's suck

Micah has the potential to be a big star in MLB... One of the Top Prospects in the game with a 95+ MPH heater and a sold slide Piece and 12/6 Curve... Breeze thru every level of the Minors. So him doing this to any team is not surprising.

yeah, imo thats a bit much. he should be a good starter for a while. i dont think he will be a 'star' and i never thought of him as one of the best prospects in the game...but you know him well and hes your boy. hes been good this year despite the era.

Re: The Astro's suck

Can someone explain the reasoning behind leaving Rodriguez in there so fucking long... What the bullpen's tired? LOL

Even Ron Washington knows better... See Robby Tejeda yesterday...

He spent less than a year in the Minors with Hellacios Stats... last year in AA and AAA he was 11-2 with a 1 something ERA with 3/1 K's to BBs

Highly touted just like the kid in Philly who is finding his own this year, first pitcher to 6 wins this year. But that kid is the direct opposite of Micah....he kills you with that left arm and that changeup that gets slower and slower.

yeah, he'll be 25 in sept, hes older than a lot of the guys. i could name 50+ guys at 24 or younger that i would take over him. not that hes not good, but one of the top prospects is a bit much. i guess it depends on how you define 'top'. i dont have his minor league stats in front of me. i watched him this year, he was not real impressive in terms of naural stuff. we'll see.

well, hamels is the younger of the two, so its not likely that owings will catch up. micah is lucky to be in the nl and in the worst division in baseball. those things will help his stats. playing in sf, lad, and sd is as good as it gets. the biggest parks and the worst lineups to face. cole pitches in the best hitters park in baseball. hamels is one of the best young pitchers...ever, so far. in terms of Ks per innings pitched hes about 5th all time at this point in his career.

Phils can score some runs as well...Stros haven't scored since the Toy Cannon was there. Just saying they were both highly touted, and Cole didn't exactly set the world on fire last year. Difference with Hammel is that he is a pitcher...kind of like a left-handed Maddox who nibbles and drives you nuts with that changeup. Micah can throw a ball through a brick wall.

Re: The Astro's suck

deeds, sometimes you are such a sensitve little lady.

:LMAO :LMAO :LMAO

he elceted to do what? yeah, if he was drafted in the first round and offered a ton of money, i dont think he would have. he just valued that education sooo much! you talk out of your ass far too often. it looks better, but it smells worse.

remember you said this: He spent less than a year in the Minors with Hellacios Stats... last year in AA and AAA he was 11-2 with a 1 something ERA with 3/1 K's to BBs

i dont see those stats in your copy in paste. more talking out of your ass?
:+clueless
i dont see a K per inning anywhere over a ball. i also dont see an era near 1. anything. hes ok. one of the top prospects? come on.

idk, for a 22 year old in that park, i would say he was pretty amazing. 145K to 117 HA ratio is unreal.

i dont see why you say the phils can score some runs and the stros cant. maybe you meant az cant...?

micah never had dominant K numbers from what deeds posted here.

Now you're getting a bit carried away Dirty. I can't defend you here. Hitting stats in the minors mean absolutely NADA most of the time.

Mo...I'll give you an example. Years ago the Phils had this can't miss kid in the minors...real nice outfielder who never hit under .300 in the PCL and always had 25+ dingers/season. The name of this kid was Mike Anderson. I think he left the game with a lifetime batting average of .227

there are 1 million examples. howie clark killed in the minors, Darnell mcdonald is killing right now. they both stink. there are tons of guys who crush in the minors. nick markakis was the oposite. he had a 96mph heater and the Os elected to keep him as a full time OF. who knows if he could have pitched, but he can certainly hit.

define, a 'ton of money'. hamels was drafted in 2002, in the first round. i only made a joke b/c its hard to take your post seriously. i understand b/c you know the kid and thats fine, but to suggest that he cared more about his academics than hamels did is comedy. certainly you didnt mean it exactly as it read, but come on...
hamels is more talented, thats why he didnt go to college. micah never had an era around 1 something and he didnt have the K rate to suggest that he would dominate in the big leagues. hes not a 'top' prospect if you are talking about the top 50 or so guys at his age or younger.

Re: The Astro's suck

His family is rich anyways... He went to school to get his education and with the hope when he went back in at 21 he would get drafted by The Braves. Didn't happen... Money was never an issue.
