Your Weekly Daisuke-Watch


In response to the ever-so rude, unprofessional, and uncalled-for barbs hurled by one Steve Berthaiume, and then only bolstered by my thuggish and brash colleague.  I thought it would be a good idea to track the progress of the worst pitcher in Major League Baseball, by charting his statistics per start, until the 2009 Boston Red Sox are no more.

So here we go.


In 3 starts since returning from the DL, Daisuke has been putrid as ever.  Nay!  Stinky as ever:


Record: 2-1
ER: 4
ERA: 1.96
IP: 18.1
Hits: 17
BB: 9
K: 13

Sure, Daisuke still allows lots of hits and too many walks.  But, he has always been that way and he has made a living of escaping from jams.  And if you review his clutch stats, you will see that Daisuke generally gets out of trouble when ever he finds himself in it.

Oh, and two of the three teams faced since his return will be potential/actual playoff opponents in a few shorts weeks.

One start does not slander erase.  Nor, two.  But what about three?

  2. Cannot wait for the inevitable Game 3 ALCS line of:

    4.1 IP
    6 ER
    5 BB
    4 Hits
    1 Wild Pitch
    1 seppukku

  3. I'm just comforted in knowing that Alex Rios will have just as many hits in the post-season as he did in the regular season while in Chicago.
