The *Official* Jason Marquis Appreciation Thread

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Jason Marquis has been pitching like how I expected him to pitch. It looks like he has regained that 04 form that he had.

 

How did you think Jeff Weaver was going to pitch this season?

 

He predicted an ERA over 15.

 

Who didn't?

Ok, new plan. Marquis dominates this year, and then we trade him and his easily tradeable contract in the offseason before he blows up in our face.

But you can't trade the guy who goes 4-0 in the postseason on the Cubs' march to a championship!

I was completely wrong on that. I will always have that Weaver fan in me.

 

I think they have a surgery for that...

Appendectomy. When he's crawling around in there he always ends up clinging onto the useless organ... I can't imagine why.

I am soo glad he is proving me wrong, please keep it up, but doubts linger. Must be the ex-card connection

[BigbadB]

Marquis for Arod!

 

Seconded.

[Amazing_Grace]

I criticized the Marquis signing as loudly as anyone here, but I have to admit I was wrong up to this point. Now, 2 months doesn't make a season and 2 months doesn't, by itself, justify a three-year contract, but if he continues to pitch this well, his contract will seem like a bargain.

[Soul]

Marquis' ERA+ 240

 

Zambrano's ERA+ 70

 

Lilly: 147

 

Hill: 236

 

 

 

Dem thar numbers sez Marquis be the staff ace. :P

he will not seem like a bargain. If his number hold up, he will BE a bargain.
