No one can say he hasn't been consistent this year.
Because from what I can tell that's pretty ####### embarrassing.
A Graph of RS/g and RA/g over the season.
That was two weeks ago. His previous start was a 7IP 2R 6/2 K/BB loss. It looked almost...normal.
they needed to have their 27 year old ace completely forget how to pitch after putting up a 147 ERA+ last year.
I picked him to win the Cy Young this year. Everything seemed to indicate he was going to take the next step.
His ERA had dropped two years in a row.
His K/9 was steady, but his BB/9 was dropping.
His inning totals were climbing, but nothing outrageous.
It was his age 27 season.
Then boom. He's completely fallen apart. There isn't any sign of skill left for him.
The Jays should just make up an injury for him ("torn ego") to save face and make sure he doesn't pitch for the rest of the season.
Who was the minor league pitching coach that turned it around for Halladay? Bring him back, pay him $100,000, and say "do it again".
That was Mel Queen, but he's quite unavailable at the present time.
Ah, right. Good job Mr. Queen, good job, indeed.
