Jeff Weaver

You know you are having a bad season when you give up 6 earned runs in 5 2/3 innings and your ERA goes down from 18+ to 15+.

I could never understand Weaver. He has great stuff at times (2006 WS on the Cardinals) but most times is simply terrible.

"The answer was in the Patriots eyes. Gone were the swagger and c0ck sure smirks, replaced by downcast eyes and heads in hands. For his poise and leadership Eli Manning was named the game's MVP. The 2007 Giants were never perfect nor meant to be. They were fighters, scrappers....now they could be called something else, World Champions."

  • Weaver was a very solid pitcher when he was with the Tigers, then he went to the Yanks and wilted in the spotlight.. rebounded with the Cardinals. Now he sucks again. go figure.
  • I cant wait until he pitches again! Im guessing a no hitter...
    Am I speaking Chinese?

  • This is why no one wanted him in free agency and he fell to the M's

    It's almost like he forgot how to pitch again......I also remember reading about another pitcher who someone said would really be terrible this year and he has....Padilla for the Rangers...If what I remember is correct the article ssaid that when he signed his new contract it took away any initiative for him to do good...and I think is record is something like 1 and 4 or 1 and 5....

    $8.3 million to be exact.

    I predict Weaver never starts another game for the M's....
