    Perez had something like a 5.50 ERA in his last 12 apperances or something so that's not really all that surprising.

    And Jiminez continues to put up good numbers in AAA..............gulp.

      Oh, good, back to 13 pitchers for no reason whatsoever.

        Other than the bullpen has sucked and some believe taxed.

        Why send Mather down, though? It seems as though we're just trying to get as many guys as possible to make their debut this season, just so we can say we did.

          18 games in 18 days, rookie making his 1st MLB start of his career on Sunday, Looper, Pinero, and maybe even Wellemyer now, can't be trusted to go deep into games on a regular basis, and the pen is in shambles as it is. If Flores can go back to being a somewhat servicable pitcher like he has been in the past, he'll help, sadly enough. Jiminez is just blow out insurance to save a couple arms.

            Needs more playing time and right now, we have 4 other outfielders who are all hitting fairly well.

              Thoughts on Chris Perez?

              I think he is going to be very good once he learns how to pitch.

                I sure hope so. The guy was supposed to take over for Izzy next season.

                  F*ck him. Trade him for a bag a balls.

                  Seriously, he looks like a closer to me. Look forward to gut wrenching finishes for years to come.

                    he's going to be very good once we get him in one single role and are able to stick to it.

                    and if he doesn't work out or they don't like him, let's unload him and go get KRod.

                          What bothers me about him is that they seem to hit home runs on what appear to be pretty decent pitches.

                            I think Perez needs to throw the slider for strikes more, so he's not the Bad Version of Lidge, where everybody just sits fastball and takes the slider.

                              is he allowed to throw the slider or is he told to throw something else?
