    Haven’t watched the game but can we all finally admit Framber isn’t a legit TOR guy?

    Yeah, it's true. It's possible he can still put together a 1-2 year stretch where he is a legit TOR guy. But right now, no. Thankfully, Justin Verlander is back and can occupy that role. Hopefully by the playoffs Framber is our 3/4 guy. He does seem able to step up for big games.

    He can be a #2/#3 guy but him walking batters like 3-4 times/game hurts him.

    Mushinski is getting a lot of swinging strikes. Might be something there.

    At his best he's a solid #2 but his average IMO is a #4 or 5 guy. Walks too many guys. When you rely on getting into messes and then Houdini'ing your way out of them, eventually luck will catch up.

    Well, can't expect to win games when Framber Valdez turns into Exxon Valdez.

    The whole team is. The way the pitching is right now we could not even win games with a 3 to 4 run lead that is how bad it is.
