Ken Rosenthal reporting they've signed Joe Blanton, one year 4 mil.

[Sully151]

7-2 with a 2.88 era in the pen last year. Could be worse.

Thats one year and 11 million less than we signed him for.   Still think it's funny?   I'm here if you need a shoulder to cry on.

ERA+ with the Angels, 62

 

ERA+ last year, 142

 

It's just not fair.

Now that Butcher is in AZ, Grienke will go 12-11 3.95 era.

are we really blaming Blanton being a worthless piece of shit on Mike Butcher ?  As opposed to him being shitty because he is, in fact shitty ? Incredible.

 

I don't think you guys would have been impressed if you were around that one time Jesus made wine.

It wasn't beer.  That damn hippie.

Whatever the Pirates' pitching coach was doing, it worked for Blanton (1.57 ERA and 1.02 WHIP in 34 innings).

[Stradling]

Thanks JeDi

Yep, but he magically made a bunch of moves to make Seattle a good team. I guess we will see.

[greginpsca]

The only team he was really horrible with was the Angels. 

[yk9001]

This isn't a thread about Gary Matthews Jr.  Or Steve Finley.  Or Josh Hamilton.

[Vegas Halo Fan]

The only team he was really horrible with was the Angels. 

 

That seems to be a recurring theme.

[seenoevil]

the doggies made the playoffs last season at least, we didn't do shit

it's the 34 innings.

[tdawg87]

We laugh now, but he'll probably pitch better than Jered Weaver.

[OregonLAA]

The Pirates pitching coach is a miracle worker. I would love to know his philosophy

[Redondo]

Sad, but true

That's who we should have signed this off-season.

34.1 ip 6 er 1 hr 39 k 9 bb

It took him 7.1 innings for him to give up 6 er for us in 2003.

In fact, in his first start of the season he gave up 4 er and 3 hr in 5 ip

naturally

Don't leave Blanton in the game long enough for him to **** up.
