Realistically there is no way Blanton replicates 2013's numbers. He sucks, and there is no questioning that he sucks, but he doesn't suck THAT much. More than likely he would put up a 4.75 ERA if he started for the Angels in 2014.

 

Let us pray that he does not have to do that.

He's the white version of Wells. Except Wells actually gave us a glimmer of hope and some good moments.

 

At least both of them accounted for their share of home runs.

 

There is a word on Blanton, and that word is sucks.

After my last remark I decided to do a comparison, to see how many home runs that Wells and Blanton have accounted for with the Angels. VDub hit 25 HR in 2011 and 11 in 2012 for a total of 36 with the Angels. Blanton surrendered 29 home runs last year, so pretty close. JoeBlo's total beats Vernon's best season, if you want to look at it that way.

 

One bit of suckage that really jumped out at me: Blanton surrendered 180 hits and 34 walks in 132.2 IP. That is a hell of a lot of baserunners.
