SANDY KOUFAX/STEVE CARLTON/CLAYTON KERSHAW/WARREN SPAHN/CHRIS SALE – HALL OF FAME – TAKE YOUR PICK AS THIS KID IS THE NEXT BEST THING TO HIT THE MOUND AND IS ANOINTED AS SUCH BY A DESPICABLE, KNOB POLISHING HOGTOWN MEDIA – IT IS SHAMEFUL

Let’s get right to it – the kid has nothing. That is all you need to know.

Now to the details, fastball maybe gets to 91/92; a slurve – halfway between and slider and a curve ball; and a changeup. That’s it – no big heat, no Sir Charles or Sparky Lyle slider, nothing. All less than average. There are hundreds of players not in the majors that have better stuff and almost everyone on every staff in the bigs has better stuff.

Next, the first time around any time a team sees a pitcher – ESPECIALLY A LEFTY – hitters just do not do much. Particularly if they are swinging from the dugout before they even get to the plate – that means, in baseball vernacular, that the guy is pus and we’re going to shell him. Any team that see this kid a second time are going to hammer him. He will not get past 2 innings if he is severely lucky.

Today, Sunday, the powder blue slo pitch team just lost to the Yankees 2-1. New York got 7 hits off this kid over 7 innings – 6 in the first 4 and he walked 4. The Yanks grounded into 3 double plays and hit 5 balls to the warning turf that remained in the tractor pull dome due to the wind. The slo-pitch team had 1 ball that got to the warning turf that would normally have gone out. So, the Yanks could have easily had 4 or 5 dingers and scored 10 runs off the kid.

But it did not happen. And the announcers? Those pudpullers and groveling phonies said not word one about that. They are so anxious to find heroes for a useless organization that they will hype a kid up who WILL NEVER STAY IN THE BIGS. NEVER. And this is totally unfair to the kid. And the ‘sports writers’ were worse – see here and here

But that is not the way for these pissants. Everybody who puts on those clown uniforms is already a Hall of Famer. Think Orlando Merced. And what about Ricky Ricardo – another lefty that was elevated to HOF status immediately.

Everything about the organization, the players, the media and the ignorant fans is a joke.

Which makes us very happy.

p.s. – the kid really will not fool anyone. He will never stick in the majors. He is just not good enough.
