He has shown periods of brilliance and periods of inexerperience. In a perfect world he would still be in AAA learning his secondary pitches, which are above average, for where he is at. That's in a perfect world though. Watch for marked improvement next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barton Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Jon Lester is going to be a top of the rotation starter for years to come. He has shown periods of brilliance and periods of inexerperience. In a perfect world he would still be in AAA learning his secondary pitches, which are above average, for where he is at. That's in a perfect world though. Watch for marked improvement next season. Maybe on the royals he'll be a top of the rotation guy. He stinks and he has not 1 solid consistent pitch to throw for strikes. At least with Hansen, you can catch some glimpses of greatness now and then with his stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharrow Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 He would be the #5 starter if he was on the Pirates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would I backtrack when I am correct? I think you have to give the kid more than one half a season than to judge him. And in response to Barton, not only did he have the great game against the Royals, but he's pitched well against the upper echelon too, including the White Sox etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbn007 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 He would be the #5 starter if he was on the Pirates. Ohhhh. You're tough. Talk about hitting a guy when he's down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackout Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Moe Lester is a #3 at best If they had just parted with worthless Craig Hansen, Lester and Fruity Pebbles, they could've gotten andruw jones (who wouldn't have allowed Giambi*'s home run last night) OR Roy Oswalt, a true #1 ace wow.
