Sunday, May 11, 2008 (5/11/2008 02:18:00 PM) - Al Padres optioned LHP Joe Thatcher to Triple-A Portland. This probably should have happened a couple of weeks ago. Thatcher took four losses despite throwing just 17 1/3 innings out of the pen for the Padres. He had a 6.75 ERA, and lefties were hitting .333 off him.--Rotoworld Thatcher is better than this, but not nearly as good as he was last year in his tiny sample either. He'll probably have a nice career as a loogy, but needs to get his confidence back first. On the same note, Mitch Stetter was awful in Nashville the first half of 2007, and is currently almost superhuman in the bigs. Sooner or later, guys find their midpoint. 5/11/2008 02:18:00 PM |
