Let's rid ourselves of these guys, pretty please:
Mike Bacsik, Levale Speigner, Ray King and Rob Fick.
Bacsik: one good start, the rest have been either mediocre or plain terrible.
Time to get someone else in here, he's been just average, and really hasn't been all that effective either.
1-4, 33.1 IP, 12 K, 42 H, 20 R, 4.59 ERA and a .304 BAA.
Replacement: Joel Hanrahan
How long is it seriously going to take the Nats to realize he's the real deal, and guys like these are blocking his way.
AAA numbers: 2-1, 2.35 ERA, 38 IP, 30 H, 14 R, 37 K, .213 BAA
Speigner: meh, taking him out of the bullpen was a huge mistake, has seen his ERA flot to 8.76 and has allowed nearly one run per inning, on average.
2-3, 38.0 IP, 18 K, 56 H, 37 R, 8.76 ERA, and a .346 BAA, oh, and WHIP at 2.05!
Replacement: Emiliano Fruto
The guy we got for Jose Vidro is looking like he actually may pan out, Fruto has been lights out on the mound, giving up only 21 hits in 38 innings of work and holding opponents to a .175 batting average against him.
AAA numbers: 3-2, 3.22 ERA, 38 IP, 21 H, 13 R, 32 K, .175 BAA
Ray King: we all thought he was going to be a good pitcher for us, well, we were wrong and King has been pretty bad on the mound this year.
Come on, surely Jimbo can do better than this...
0-0, 16.2 IP, 8 K, 19 H, 12 R, 6.48 ERA and a .292 BAA
Replacement: Arnie Munoz
Munoz is OK, and may turn out to be an improvement over King, should he get the call, right now, he's appeared in the same numbers of games as King while posting a 3.18 ERA and a high numbers of K's.
AAA numbers: 1-1, 3.18 ERA, 22 IP, 22 H, 8 R, 28 K, .247 BAA.
Rob Fick: Fick's a nice guy, good fielder, not so great of a hitter.
He had an injury-riddled 2006, but managed to put up respectable numbers.
This year, he has received playing time, and he's had nothing to show for it.
In 52 games, he's put up a batting average hovering over the Mendoza line, and threatening to fall far beneath it should he go 0-for-4 one game.
Great guy, mediocre player, I miss Travis Lee.
16-for-79, 52 games, 0 HR, 4 RBI, .203 AVG, .289 OBP.
Replacement: D'Angelo Jimenez
I know he sucked as a PH with us in limited duty, but he's thrived in AAA starting every single game and hitting .376, he can also play multiple positions, we should give him another chance.
AAA numbers: .376 AVG, 56-for-149, 6 HR, 20 RBI, .472 OBP, .597 SLG
Worth Callups: Chris Schroder (2-2, 1.74 ERA, 31 IP, 23 H, 8 R, 43 K's!
Potential callup: Chris Michalak ( 2-1, 3.72 ERA, 19.1 IP, 14 H, 8 R, 8 K's)
