Eaton has been one of the slowest startes in the game. How is that going to translate to the pen when he has 7 minutes to warm up and then pitch one or two innings.I want to hear Gillicks rationale for why they didnt release him. I want to see how they spin it of if they'll admit its about money not about performance. Damn I'm pissed. To further my point. Eaton has been one of the slowest startes in the game.

Condrey? Thats a friggin joke. Condrey doesnt deserve to get sent out b/c Eaton sucks. If that happens then Gillick and Co. care more about the money invested then they do in winning.

He deserves it. Make it kind of like best out of 3. If he implodes in 1 and pitches brilliantly in 2 then keep him, if he implodes in 2 and pitches brilliantly in 1 get him out of here. If he pitches decent in all 3 then make him the 5th starter. Give him 3 starts. He deserves it. Make it kind of like best out of 3.

How many bad starts until he is removed from the rotation again? Honestly, I think that with the race as tight as it is, if he bombs in two consecutive starts and shows no change from when he was sent down, he must go to the pen. No team can consistantly get crushed every fifth day and expect to contend. If he cannot start, send him to the pen and bring up Happ. Enough fucking around. This team claims to be a second half team, well prove it. How tight a leash do you keep him on? How many bad starts until he is removed from the rotation again?

I think that Lidge signing was the saving grace. After that happened he said to himself, do I want to start for the Phillies the team I love or go close somewhere else? I think he chose the former.

If Myers comes back ready and focused the skies the limit here, it's his head and in-ability to adapt on the mound that de-railed his season so maybe he's done what he needed to do to become a 'pitcher' again.

If he comes back and wins 7 games for us then there is a god and he was shining down on Brett Myers. If Myers comes back and puts up 100 strike outs 7 wins 3.50 ERA or under in the 2nd half then he's the #2 we needed him to be. 10, what’s he at 3?
