I really think Harden is overrated as hell

 

I think he's extremely inconsistent.

 

Which is part of the reason hes overrated as hell.

 

I don't know how he's overrated as hell. He was great for the Cubs last year. But everybody has always acknowledged that his weakness is staying healthy and being consistently effective.

I don't know how he's overrated as hell. He was great for the Cubs last year. But everybody has always acknowledged that his weakness is staying healthy and being consistently effective.

 

Hes making 7 million dollars and when healthy is widely regarded as 1 of the best pitchers in the game supposedly. Hes healthy and hasnt been very effective.

[Sammy Sofa]

Ow, right onto the bullpen phone.

[haubrich91]

Gahhhh that looked like it hurt.

[Schwarber Fan]

Typical Cub-killer type. He'll get us all weekend I'm sure.

[Keener98]

No I didnt just repeat what Gooney said. For me to count someone as being one of the best pitchers in the game they have to pitch like it when healthy, and do it consistently. Thats not Rich Harden, so therefore, hes overrated.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 11-6 when their pitcher gets a hit.... 20-25 when he doesn't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[TysonCBulls423]

Since when has 7 mil been too much for a 28 year old starting pitcher with a 3.33 career ERA?

[jersey cubs fan]

Hes making 7 million dollars and when healthy is widely regarded as 1 of the best pitchers in the game supposedly. Hes healthy and hasnt been very effective.

 

I wouldn't assume he's healthy right now. But the fact is he was one of the greatest pitchers, when healthy. He wasn't regarded that way for nothing. This is not normal. At least not for healthy Harden. Nobody's been singing his praises this year.
