Because a guy who got shelled as a starter is sure to dominate as a reliever.

And a guy with a -3.95 xFIP – ERA is a typical “guy who got shelled as a starter”
Pete Rose was actually banned from baseball for teaching Jeff Francoeur how to play. He made up the gambling stuff to hide his shame.

Whatever that made up nonsense means. Everybody saw, he got hammered.

Whatever
If you choose to disregard stats, I can’t do anything about that. Just don’t be surprised when his next stint is considerably better.

When I’ll be surprised is if he even gets a next stint.

If he doesn't
it’s because he’s a PR enigma right now. Assuming most FOs have a clue.

Good analysis today at HBT on why subtracting FIP from ERA leads to poor results.

The fact that he wouldn’t accept a minor league assignment says a lot about how out of touch with reality he is.

That should have been apparent when he demanded more money as a “sign of respect”.
"My God! Good news fans, the Braves are showing signs of life for the first time in weeks. As a matter of fact, they appear to be beating the crap out of each other."

Oh, it was, but at least then it was the offseason, and he could pretend he’d be good again. This is immediately following getting his ass handed to him over and over again.
