I've only had one good year in my whole career for god's sake! Even if my arm is fully healed, you guys need to remember that I am nothing to get too excited about.

They reshuffled the rotation. Kendrick is now the 4, Eaton now the 5. He has on eor two more starts, I mean if they actually care about a championship, to fix himself or hell be outta here. theyll bring up happ, maybe bring in a guy like cha sun baek and use him to replace clay condrey. baek, who just got DFA'd (i heard they tried to trade for him in the offeseason), could be a long reliever and help out there. havent seen him pitch much but hes better than clay condrey. also, they really need to make a decision on eaton soon. id give myers more leeway, but not much. id give him 3-5 more starts and if hes not right then i would move him to the pen and try to trade him.we dont have time to wait for these guys to "fix themselves". im sorry. i want a championship THIS season from THIS team. we can throw away wins with bad pitching.

I just don't see them making the move to call up Happ unless someone gets rocked their next 3 outings.... Happ just needs to stay on the course he's on right now, and he'll be up be the all-star break if that happens Until one of the starters has a major collapse, I can’t see them bringin up Happ after just 10 starts… granted his 3.45 ERA looks great, but Moyer and Kendrick both have winning records… and Eaton was giving us “quality starts” early in the year and looks much better than last year… I just don’t see them making the move to call up Happ unless someone gets rocked their next 3 outings….
