Anyone taking a chance on Colon? (1 Viewer)

Had a nice first outing. Picked him up in FA.

Thoughts?

Worth a FA pickup, but I'd stash him a week to see him put a 2nd good start together. I wouldn't be optimistic, personally.

Where's the Colon love? This guy is only 1 year removed from a Cy Young. I stashed him on my DL immediately after our draft.

Sure, he's fat, he's aging but he's better than 60% of pitchers out there already. And it'll be 85% if he reverts to form.

Speaking of fat, it doesn't matter. As Johnny Sain used to say, "You don't run the damn ball up there."

 

[PatsWillWin]

Glad to hear you say that since I have to start him this week.

He hit 97 mph in the 6th inning of his last start. Impressive.

He's ahead of schedule. I didn't have him penciled in for those numbers until his fifth start...

Colon was wheelin today.

Picked him up and stashed him on the DL. Really debated starting him today but didn't know if he would be on a strict pitch count. Now I'm .

2 starts next week though

 

[Ed Wood]

Hit 94 mph with his 103rd and final pitch. Strikeout total was his highest since June 4, 2005, when he fanned 11 in six innings at Boston.

Didn't see the game, but, yep, the numbers were ugly. We could have hoped that he not only contain the Royals, but also stop them. Alas, not to be.

And he still got the win, and K-Rod got the save.Double
