What A Joke - Giants Zito No.1 In Rotation

oldmanTED · Mar 31, 2008

Zito has been a bust after being paid by the Giants as a free agent. Stunk last year and is picking up today right where he left off. Gives up a 3 run jack to Kent in the first, now down 4-0 in the 3rd and is well into 60 pitches. Matt Cain should easily be No.1 in this rotation. Played the RL with the Dodgers today. For the future, Zito is a go against at the moment. He was terrible in spring training and he is no better now.

if i was wagering on SF it wouldn't be with Zito on the mound it would be with one of those younger kids

Enjoy for what, another 6 seasons. Overpaid piece of junk.

From the looks of it...

Billy Beane knows when to get rid of his left handed starting pitchers...

Ripped off the Cardinals, with the Mulder trade...and then refused to pay Zito 10million Plus per year...

I do not see Zito beating that 4.50 ERA that he produced LY. More like over 5 this time around.

GM struggling there. What a disaster that lineup is. Old and slow. Molina batting cleanup is an debacle of epic proportions.

Dammit! I read this earlier today and got busy at work so I didn't bet it. If I had known he was going against Penny I would have paid more attention.

Nice call Ted.

Could be Freddie Lewis, and thats not bragging. That is a horrible lineup. Couldn't believe he signed Aaron Rowand to that kind of money. Deals like that get you fired.

Very interesting history. The Liriano/Bonser/Nathan trade is disastrous.

Couldn't agree more. Have gone into this season with the intention to bet against the Giants every game, all 162, but make sure the bet is plus money by using the RL if necessary.
