Fun with Numbers
Obviously, this is cherry picking - but still - I found this amusing in light of another discussion.
Pitcher A in his free agent season - 27 year old LHP: ERA+ of 139, 217 IP, 99 BB, 151K's, and 10 HR's.
Zito: 28 year old LHP: ERA+ of 116, ERA+ of 116, 221 IP, 99 BB, 151K's, and 27 HR's.
Ladies and gents, we've signed Mike Hampton.

It didn't come across very well. I guess that's strike two for me over the last week.

Zito's K/9 - 2004 to 2007: 6.89, 6.74, 6.15, 5.54
Zito's K/BB - 2004 to 2007: 2.01, 1.92, 1.53, 1.32
Can we call it a trend now?

I wasn't nearly as alarmed about the salami (first inning, it happens) but the 2 runs in the 3rd were killer.

The Zito Signing
I don't hate Zito, and certainly hope he turns things around. I just don't envisage him doing enough to justify that contract. Best case for me: we trade him. But I doubt that happens.
