Makes ya wanna Loup, Loup de oop de oop de oop.

He's a knuckleballer. You do realize simple things like temperature, rainy weather (such as today) can throw him off. It's about the grip and the release. Of course they are inconsistent.

I said he's inconsistent, you guys keep saying "7 Quality Starts". I am simply showing he isn't that good and he is in fact inconsistent.

So who pitches the 8th inning?

 

[King Mapes]

Not sure what's funny. Look it up. Very insightful post btw.

Saying a knuckleballer is inconsistent is like saying Kershaw is a good pitcher.

 

[Puckstuff]

Stupid Texas giving us no help

 

[The Kessel Run]

looked like strike 3.

Depends if we are still up

If we are Cecil I would think

 

[Orca Smash]

Hit into a double please.

Wasn't meant to be insightful, it was a good laugh for me truthfully.

Read my posts again. He's a knuckleballer, they are obviously inconsistent. But 7 straight QS recently is great. Everyone will have bad days.

But he is good. You point out last years stats to show he is currently inconsistent, why do I care how he performed last year? But he got off to a horrible start and 4.21 ERA isn't terrible. Especially in this division

 

[shaner8989]

**** ya Loup

 

[trellaine201]

Wow Loup is aka Harry Houdini

 

[Stats01]

LOL Oakland just tied it.

 

[Orca Smash]

Hit into a double please.

wish received, although i should have put play after double.

 

[King Mapes]

But... Our bullpen sucks!

Cecil in the 8th, Janssen 9th

I measure his time played as a Jay, I am not cherry picking his "7 Quality starts" to prove my point.

 

[Stats01]

We need Texas to come up big against Baltimore tonight

 

[Puckstuff]

Loup is our best reliever ainec

When you look at the big picture (47 or so starts with the Jays) he really hasnt been "good".

A 4 ERA 1.25+ whip pitcher isnt all that good to me.

 

[DatsyukianDeke*]

Agreed.

Wish Delabar could perform at the same level as last year.

 

[TootooTrain]

Great job by Loup.

Umm, Janssen?

I've accepted him as our 5th best pitcher, he's not good but not useless

 

[trellaine201]

He has been our most reliable RP this year. RP seem to be so volatile throughout the league. I guess thats why teams are scared to give big money to some of them.

Good job Loup, keep up the good work.

 

[DatsyukianDeke*]

Great job by Loup.



Umm, Janssen?

I think he meant besides Janssen.

 

[Cor]

I'm not sure I would trust Dickey pitching Game 5/7 in the playoffs, but to say he isn't good, just isn't true
