You are always ripping Howard….I dont get it. 2nd in MVP 48 and 146. Wouldnt have been in the playoffs without his September. He’s looking good this spring except for yesterday, yet youve ripped him in two posts today.

My friend went down to Tampa this week and as a Yankee fan (Nobodys Perfect) enjoyed the game rather thoroughly.

Charlie Manual is pisssssed:

“I think any game like that pisses you off and the best thing you can do is bleepin’ get out there and get on that bleepin’ bus and forget about that sonofabitch. That was a horebleep bleepin’ game and if I played in a bleepin’ game like that, I’d definitely bleepin’ take some good inventory of myself. That was a horsebleep bleepin’ game. They don’t get much worse than that. It was terrible.

“I’d say we hit bleepin’ rock bottom there for a while.”

Wow. So it looks like Happ or Park. I really thought coming into the spring that Kendrick was gonna get it. Now we’re getting to the point that if Park continues to pitch well that, all things being equal, you have to give him the shot over Happ. By all accounts, he was told when he signed he could compete for a starting slot. Couple that fact, along with the “service time” issue for Happ, and it looks like the Seoul Man gets slotted in at 5. Let me be the first to say. Historically, Park stinks. But who has a good #5 these days anyway? Lets just hope that Cole isn’t flying out to see Dr. Frank Jobe on Wednesday so Park doesn’t become a 4.

He’d be facing these same “tough” teams in the regular season too… Spring Training games are almost always easier lineups due to the minor leaguers getting at-bats..

Kendrick has a 3% chance of being the 5th starter

Sean: The fourth was a combination of bad defense, tough hits and bad pitching. The truth is Kendrick doesn’t create many outs. Most outs are hard-hit. That showed yet again today. He nibbles too much. He has no definite out pitch and lefties can rake him.

The main problem with all this is because Kendrick can’t create outs, he relies on defense too much. Like today, that becomes costly a lot of times. You can’t just let the guys behind you do everything. Pitchers HAVE to be out creators.

Compared to Happ and Park, Kendrick has no shot. The other two create outs.

even the outs were loud outs.
they were drilling the ball all over the plate.

Errors happen…
you don’t see Cole melt down after an error.
go get the next guy out.
don’t fall apart which is what Kendrick does.

I’m thankful for wat he did in ’07…but the fact is he doesn’t have it and with the NL easy being what it is this year, I don’t trust him to get people out

From what i heard, that was not all Kendrick’s fault. His big inning, it sounds like he should of got out of with a double play by Donald. Or the next play, if Howard doesn’t fumble the ball.

It seems like Kendrick is facing the tougher teams when goes out there, but maybe he is just showing his true colors as well.
