Time To Pass The Torch

Via Surviving Grady  |  July 20, 2009
I'm calling the Great John Smoltz Experiment a failure. The guy has managed just one win while compiling a 6.31 ERA. Would have been a nice story, but "Smoltzie" is starting to be a bullpen killer. I always though he looked a bit like James Taylor...now he's starting to pitch like him. The first time he goes up against a team with a winning record, he gives up three...

Smoltz, Red Sox wilt against Texas heat

Via boston.com  |  July 20, 2009
Just as it appeared John Smoltz was on his way to his best outing as a member of the Red Sox, entering the sixth inning having thrown just 75 pitches and holding the Rangers to one run, everything evaporated. And quickly.

Hunter outdoes Beckett to boot BoSox from first

Via ESPN  |  July 21, 2009
Texas rookie Tommy Hunter pitched six solid innings to beat Josh Beckett and Boston 4-2 on Tuesday night, knocking the Red Sox out of first place in the AL East.

Via A Large Regular  |  July 19, 2009
Josh BeckettJosh Beckett needs 10 more starts this season to guarantee his $12 million 2010 option. However, the Red Sox like to rest their starters to make sure they are fresh for the playoffs. My guess is that sometime soon the Red Sox announce that they are picking up the 2010 option no matter what and are also looking at an extension for Beckett but that negotiations won'...

Tuesday's Games

Via MVN  |  July 21, 2009
Tuesday is another full schedule. Josh Beckett makes his first start since the All-Star Game. The hot pitching Wandy Rodriguez takes the mound against St. Louis. He owns the Cardinals. The Phillies are going for their tenth straight win. That's just scratching the surface of what's scheduled for Tuesday. San Francisco at Atlanta: With their win over the Giants on Monday...

Tommy Hanson:The Next Big Braves Pitcher?

Via Bleacher Report  |  July 21, 2009
Recently, Braves rookie pitcher Tommy Hanson struck out 11 San Fransisco Giant hitters in seven innings pitched. This made him 5-0 on the year with a 3.00 ERA with 36 strikeouts and a 1.27 WHIP. So after 7 starts, it got me thinking, is Tommy Hanson the next big Atlanta Braves pitcher. As you most likely know, the Braves have a history of great pitchers. Greg Maddux, John Smoltz...

Tommy Hunter draws rave reviews

Via dallasnews.com  |  July 21, 2009
Here are a few thoughts on Tommy Hunter and a fact about his recent matchups. Michael Young: "That's a tough draw against Josh Beckett. Tommy did a good job. He answered the bell right there. Since he got back, he's been doing a great job, just making sure he throws strikes. He's been attacking the strike zone, making guys make contact. The biggest thing is he&...
