[/quote] Some of those predictions are confusing. Like one guy picking the Dodgers to win the NL but having the Red Sox beat the Cubs in the WS?

JC Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 Cueto can fan people, once he puts it consistently together he is going to be amazing. We have to hit lefties better. 3 hits in seven innings isn't going to win games. Votto is good, but we need more hits or were going to be fighting in the cellar with the Pirates who just kicked our ass yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I know it's the first set of games in a long season, etc but Cueto in particular has something to prove. He shows flashes of greatness, has meltdowns, etc. He NEEDS to be more consistent. Obviously Volquez gets a pass. He was amazing last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(It only went down again - to 4.09 - in September, when the air was cooling again). But it is a nice handy explanation which makes me feel more at ease, so a hot weather pitcher he is!

BengalRep85-9 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Volquez does not look good so far, at all. WAY too many pitches being thrown and his command just isn't there. Doesn't seem to have that confidence he had last year. Looks as tho the league may have wised up to his change up. Is it time to begin worrying about him a little? :anticipate: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBandJoeyV Posted April 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 First a Homer by Bruce Almighty then a good at bat with bases loaded to get HBP with 2 outs to allow EE to get up and hit a grand slam! Now EV needs to come threw, pitch a few scoreless innings and grab a win even though he has pitched pretty miserably so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
