It'll be 2-14 after tonight. King Felix goes 7 strong, 1 earned run and 8 Ks.

I love King Felix.

Indeed. He outdid my predictions in each category except K's. Dude's a beast... and still only 24. One of a few pitchers currently pitching with a legit shot at logging 300 wins. Maybe. Just maybe.

Nice to see Seattle heating up after a rough start. I know a sweep of Baltimore's nothing to rave about, but still. It's something.

What happened with the Brewers/Pirates game yesterday? 20-0 is about as merciless a beating as I've seen in a long, long time.

I know he's only 24, but really? I would be amazed to see that, just because it's such an elite club. In Felix's case he'd have to average 15 wins a season until he turns 40. I'm not saying he doesn't have a shot, just that at 24 and 60 wins, I feel like it's a bit early to say he has a legit shot at it.

The reason he does have a legit shot is because he's so young

Aaron Hill is baaaaaaaaack with a jack in the sixth.

Eggggggg-zactly.

King Felix is sweet! One of my favorite pitchers in the league. And he does have a legit shot at 300, because right now hes one of the best pitchers in the league and has the potential to have one of the best pitching careers in the MLB, which is why he could have 300 some day.

Lincecum was not even 100%, and he went 7 strong. Gave up one run on a very close play at the plate. 4-0 with an ERA of 1.0. Fantastic.

Halladay's better. [/fighting words]

Halladay will always be the best in my eyes, I'm cheering for Phili next to Jays this year.

How about Cecil last night? I didn't expect him to come out with such a solid performance. He gave up four runs in I think 7 innings, maybe 8? Anyway, he gave up a 2 run home run then was swapped for Downs.
I was really impressed, hopefully he can keep things going as long as they are substituting him for Tallet.
Romero tonight! Can't wait.

I'm withholding judgement on Romero just yet. He tailed off spectacularly in the last two months last year. His season, for me, will be judged largely on his last two months.

Jays get swept by the Bosox. *sigh*

penguinofwar · 04-29-2010, 03:10 PM

DDDDDDDDontrelle had a great start today (for the D-train). 5.2 innings (might have been 6) with no earned runs. If he could pitch anything like that again it'd be incredible for the Tigers.
