I'm laughing....haha.....I'm sorry to say this to you Davis lovers but he is NO #2 pitcher in the major leagues. Sorry.

 

Neither were Jamey Wright, Scott Karl, Jeff Juden and Jimmy Haynes, yet the Brewers trotted them out every 5th day, calling them #2 starters. Davis is what he is: an average-to-above average ML starting pitcher. On a good team, he win's 12-16 games a year consistently. On this team? Who knows.

Chad Moeller will go yard.

 

EDIT - I was wrong, oh well. Anyway, Davis could still give us six innings provided he stays in the game, as I think Ned will push him high in his pitch count if he starts throwing more strikes.

Davis easily has the worst command of any pitcher I've ever seen in my life.

 

Well, that's a strong statement. 'Easily', no less.

Yeah hilarious. Who would you rather have, Kris Benson?

 

Good Lord, the man gives up homers to Beltran and Piazza and it's like we're throwing Quevedo back out there again. There was a time not terribly long ago when Rafael Roque started Opening Day for this team...

 

All that said these guys tend to give leads back the next half-inning more than just about any staff I can remember watching (maybe it's because the Crew is actually -getting- the leads in the first place).

 

Something has changed about Davis, he is not attacking the strike zone to say the least,

Let me guess now. The same Brewer batters that racked up 7 hits and a handful of walk in 2 2/3 inns, will now go 16 straight outs to the same pitcher.

 

This team is, as I always say, full of talent, but they struggle to apply it. They are a wee scared to be front runners. They expect to lose.

 

C'mon guys... change that mojo.

 

As I type... c'mon guys do it now!
