    well like i said i like stutes. so that would be 3. i don't think it's as bad as you think. could be better. but every team has some flaws.

    '08 also featured a rotation with 1 guy having an era under 3.75. that makes a huge difference.

    I like stutes too, but I don't know that you can trust him in a big spot agaist a braun-type. He has gotten worse as they year has gone on. Mainly because the manager is an idiot.

    he's never pitched in the playoffs either. I know he played in a lot of huge games at OSU, but it's not the same as the MLB playoffs

    well there was a time when mariana rivera wasn't tested either. i like the young guys...with any luck schwimmer ends up helping too. there is a bit of an unknown with them being so young obviously.

    if you had to choose between the 08 rotation and a better bullpen or the 2011 super rotation with a weaker pen, which woudl you choose? i'm taking this year. hands down.

    I'm not going to pretend I know much about schwimmer. yesterday was the first time I have seen him pitch. I know what I have read though...he's a fringe bullpen guy. Not someone that I think they can really count on in the playoffs. I haven't seen him anywhere near enough to have my own opinion though

    Two different teams. The offense in 08 was far superior to what they have now. The bullpen was also much better (they had 5 solid options...and that's not including condrey who was effective that year). Flip a coin.

    So what the Hell's been going on around here?

    FYI - you are all crazy if you don't make it to the Folk Fest some time. The campground is like a PJ tailgate on steroids. Unreal.

    Side note, you see there is some sort of PJ Museum next weekend?

    Awesome can't even do it justice, dude. The place is its own little country for four days. Non-stop parties, topless races, mudslides, drum circles, every tent has a band or guitar playing in it, swimming hole, everyone's real chill, booz & other "stuff" everywhere. And the best part is it's not overblown or overhyped like a Bonnaroo. Just amazing.

    PJ Museum? Where?

    I'm out near Pottstown, and I thought a truck was driving up into the driveway. Ka. Ray. Zee.

    Says it happened outside Richmond, Va.
