Zito is better than Glavine at this point so he changes the matchup. Next year i think they will go after another pitcher with Glavine's money, and they do have high hopes for Pelfrey, who should move quickly. The thing I like best about Pelfre is that he has a dominating fastball. He pitches off his fastball. Humber on the other hand features his curve more. A guy who can throw hard like Pelfrey and has some serious sink on the ball can move along quickly. Look at Peavey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9457776.post-1133976679177696212005-12-07T17:31:00.000+00:002005-12-07T17:31:00.000+00:00I agree whole-heartedly, Jdon.When you consider ho...I agree whole-heartedly, Jdon.<BR/><BR/>When you consider how fragile Pedro is, plus Glavine's age and inconsistency, in theory, we really don't have much of a starting rotation. I doubt Seo will have as big a year as last season (it'd be nice) but perhaps someone like Heilman will step up. I think it would be nice to shed Benson. I rather wonder why we aren't making a run at Morris from the Cardinals.Jaaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14918548497554962346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9457776.post-1133893419602492912005-12-06T18:23:00.000+00:002005-12-06T18:23:00.000+00:00I like Manny, but we go nowhere without a major st...I like Manny, but we go nowhere without a major starting pitching upgrade. We had fairly steady starters but that won't get you there most of the time. And forget about matching up with Houston or maybe even Atlanta with Pedro and Glavine. Even if there is nothing out there now we might do something during the year. But we won't do it if we blow all of our chips on MannyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9457776.post-1133803763407232732005-12-05T17:29:00.000+00:002005-12-05T17:29:00.000+00:00LoDuca and Castro will make a nice platoon behind ...LoDuca and Castro will make a nice platoon behind the plate.
