Depends what the meaning of "is" is. Last two starts he's pitched far better than a solid 4/5. Go back a month and probably more like a solid 4. Those terms don't mean anything to me anyhow, all that matters is he's getting the job done.

Hes helped solidify the rotation in nelson and davies absence for sure. I know this is the optimism thread but a guy who has a 100 era + and a 4.28 fip at the end of June isnt pitching line a "tor".

 

I have no problem leaving suter in the rotation, probably even over Davies when he comes back, but Sut is a 4.

Extrapolating Suter's past two starts out, his full season projection is:

 

34 GS, 238.0 IP, 34 W, 0 L, 1.93 ERA, 0.74 WHIP

 

You're right, he's not pitching like a TOR... he's pitching like a CY YOUNG WINNER!!!

Also he likely has a higher hitting exit velocity than Eric Sogard!!!

Cubs just lost the first 3 games of a series against the Reds, including today's 11-2 pounding where Maddon got cute and started a middle reliever in effort to try and squeak out a bullpen game in the midst of an extended run of games with no off day (they got a day off awhile back due to a rainout, but then had to play a doubleheader the next day followed by a getaway day game). Their pitching is stressed right now due to its lack of depth and a few minor but key injuries. Also, their offense continues to be Jekyl and Hyde - despite the talent, that team has some warts they will struggle to clear up this season due to a lack of prospect capital to improve their roster.

 

They still don't have a scheduled off day for another 9 days, with a 4 game road series at the Dodgers coming up. As a Brewer fan, it's a good for them to be scuffling during these extended runs of games on their schedule that don't provide the Cubs much time to breathe.

The Brewers will bank a bunch of wins before the all-star break considering the schedule. We face a lot of very bad teams, and the 2 series we have against stronger teams are at home. And those teams aren't near as good as the Brewers.

 

There, in the spirit of the optimism thread, this quote has been adjusted accordingly. :)

That's better, but I don't think we want to get too cocky and jinx ourselves by calling other teams bad. Here is our opportunity to play some win-challenged teams in the near future. ;)

keston hiura is batting .364 this year at biloxi

I think they should move him to colo. springs NOW

He has proven he is as good as advertised

What about bringing him to the show in september

strictly as a pinch hitter

 

I don't think it matters much whether he plays in AA or AAA, his bat is pretty clearly ready for MLB pitching. It's more about service time and reps at 2b that he's in the minors right now. There's a chance he comes up to PH in September, but more likely is May or June for service time reasons.
