David Price Suffers The Fail of July

by R.J. Anderson on Jul 4, 2009 10:41 PM EDT

I didn't see all of the game, so excuse the ignorance, but here are my approximately timed thoughts:

8:23 AM - Wake up, look at clock, think to self: 12 hours until Price.

10:13 AM - Receive text, asking if anything is needed from store, reply ice. Notice you cannot spell Price without ice. Noted for future poor jokes.

1:20 PM - State "Haha, silly Canuck, this is America's day." upon watching Rich Harden pitch horribly.

1:21 PM - Price won't pitch that poorly.

4:59 PM - Two hours til Price, woo!

5:01 PM - Three hours, stupid Texas.

5:02 PM - til Price, woo!

8:14 PM - PRIIIIIIIICE

8:17 PM - CHANGE-UPS!

8:20 PM - Okay stop.

8:22 PM - No really, stop.

8:25 PM - ...

8:45 PM - Price :<

No, you pretty much have it all covered

Since when did Price do ’07 Edwin impressions?

I remember Edwin's 7/4 start in 2007.

Boy, that was fun against Boston in Fenway.

Who could forget his complete game shut-out against the TOUGH TEXAS LINE-UP in the TOUGH TEXAS HEAT at the TOUGH BALLPARK IN ARLINGTON

Deflecting to Edwin Jackson should make

Price’s troubles go away

Funny, let’s talk more on Hunter and Holland, two young pitchers, and how they ‘got it done’

Do we have to?

how did you do that?

The Ballpark of Arlington

also gives Mr. Cliff Lee issues too. Its a nightmare for young starters.

The Rays FO totally miscalculated

the readiness of Price. He clearly isn’t, and by thinking he was /would be, it set off a series of actions, that has now left this team, starving for SP at the present time

Go get Carl Pavano

1-Indians don’t want to pay his incentives

2-He’s better than any SP we have

by Raymondo on Jul 5, 2009 8:02 AM EDT reply actions

He's a zombie. Zombies don't like this weather.

RD over and out.

get Pavano. I am a yankee fan and i would love to see you guys pick him up. With that said Pavano is not the guy you ever want on your team, only pitching against you. The thing he does best is hang out on the DL.

by yankeechaser on Jul 5, 2009 10:43 AM EDT up reply actions

He'll be fine for the remainder of this year

then when he gets a multi year deal in ’10 the DL action begins

by Raymondo on Jul 5, 2009 10:52 AM EDT up reply actions

He's been playing the last three weeks with a sore neck and shoulder, and it shows.

I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.

Who? Pavano?

He’s pitching great

by Raymondo on Jul 5, 2009 11:52 AM EDT up reply actions

Sorry, got my timeline confused, he had a rough go during the month of June after his Chicago start because of a sore neck and shoulder.

And for you to say he’s pitching better then any starting pitcher the Rays have is patently absurd. He’s not better then Shields, he’s probably not better then Garza, and I’m not even convinced he’s better then current Kazmir. Regardless, history dictates that it’s only a matter of days now before he breaks down again.

I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.
