Dice-k is a waste of money?

Question

Dice-k needs to get better starts and stop blowing d**n leads :|

Answer 1

the guy has like a 0.79 ERA in his last 3 starts.

Correction 0.88 ERA in his last 5 starts, anybody that disagrees can look it up.

Answer 2

Did somebody say Barry Zito?

Answer 3

That's a rhetorical question. $100000 just to talk to him, and he doesn't speak English.

Answer 4

obviously he's a waste of money. they spent a fortune on his contract

Answer 5

yeah and quit with the homers in this game

Answer 6

if you expected him to fly over from japan and immediately post a sub-3.00 era with 250 Ks and 20 W's, then you need a major reality check. give the kid a break, for god's sake. he's still in his 20's and has a lot of room to get better. you can blame Scott Boras (that b*****d...) for nabbing a huge contract, he does that with lots of his clients. Honestly, look on the bright side. at least youre not the yankees upper management who decided to pay kei igawa 20 mil, just to have him end up like another hideki irabu bust. (although irabu was decent in his first few years)

Answer 7

What are you talking about? What more could you ask for? Dice K is 11-1 in his 18 starts and could be a 17 game winner. He also has a 2.62 ERA. The Redsox are doing well this year and so is he. In his no decisions, the Sox are 3-2. Money well spent.
