AJ Burnett

He said he wants to come here. Do you like him? If we make any moves, I want a starting pitcher. I don’t know if Burnett is the answer. His last outing was great, but still has an ERA over 5.00

by cubbiesrule on Jun 25, 2008 11:02 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I'm not all that great at evaluating trades.

But we need a starting pitcher, and I’m not willing to pay the price that they want for Sabathia. I honestly like the idea of Maddux coming back, I think that would be awesome. Burnett or Hardin probably after that.

Yeah, rumor he's on the market, and he's only good for 5 or 6 these days so the price isn't too high.

Sort of unrelated

But I am curious to see how often the Cards have faced the top end of a rotation in a series. It seems to me that they are constantly missing the big guys…

You still have to play the games...

but if you miss the becketts/hamels of the world and get to face the back end of a team rotations you have to like your chance.
