how much value does a pitcher have who pitches well and has a good era but has to throw 20 to 25 pitches every inning thus causing the bp to pitch 3 or 4 innings every game he starts? he has 6 wins this year with 3.04 era which is ranked 12th best. you have to go down to #34 before you find a pitcher with the same or fewer wins. no one else in the top 17 have fewer than 9 wins.
my opinion of JQ is dropping fast. good pitcher ... gets way too many non-decisions because he can't stay in the game long enough. his lifetime average is less than 6 1/2 innings per game. in close to 3 full years he has 21 wins. 7+ wins a year ... and that's with a lifetime 3.48 era! this is not good for a supposed #2 guy.
today 116 pitches in 5 innings. four innings for our bp and we know what kind of bp that is. the 2 run lead is promptly lost, he loses another victory and i don't blame the bp for it. i blame quintana.
