OT: The 3rd annual Chan Ho Park blows thread
Like the last couple of years, I will post Chan Ho Park's line for each game he pitches in. Last year, this thread didn't last long as our hero only lasted 7 starts.
I encourage participation in predicting our hero's final stats for the year. I predict 5-19, 5.43 ERA But this is a new season. Game 1 against Oakland. Here we go: 7 2/3 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 1 BB, 8 K, 1 HR So Chan Ho is 0-1, 3.52 ERA for the season Clearly this was not Chan Ho. The Rangers had obviously gotten an illegal immigrant from Cuba to pitch the first 5 innings. I am sure things will settle down and Chan Ho will regain his stellar form. Discuss.

I can't recall where, but within the past week I read that Park's velocity is up and he's looking as good as when he was with the Dodgers. The first start is certainly an encouraging sign.
Although, my guess is you'd rather this guy kiss Jackie Sherrill square on the lips.

Yeah, his ass lips. Chan Ho is the egg on Hicks' face. Forget A-Rod.

True.
I contend that part of the reason Arod is no longer with the Rangers is Mr. Park. You are right though, he was hitting 92-93 on the gun and he has supposedly rediscovered his splitter. He did look good for the first 5 innings I must painfully admit.

Judging by the first two Jays' games, I'd like a pitcher like Chan here. As for stat predictions, I'd say 8-14 with a 4.86 ERA.

Do we really think that Park woudl be sent out to los 19 games?
If he's piss-poor again this year, I have to think that they would suddenly locate a nagging injury (right about the time he hit 2-8) and place him onto the injured list - allowing one of their not-so-brilliant young arms to get some chances instead. I can't see him losing more than about 10 games this year... I just don't think they wuld have the nerve. |

I picked 19 because I don't think they would have the nerve to send him out for 20. (yes I don't like him very much) It is an interesting question though, considering how much money he is making a season (and has made already for his resume of garbage results for this team) whether they would do that, because the potential to lose 20 games is within reach if he is healthy and continues his past form. He doesn't have the offensive firepower of past years to bail him out. I think the question is, if he does continue to be piss-poor, what do they do with him for next season and beyond.

The sub bet here is his injury over/under. He will never make it to the All Star Game.
He lives up to his middle name.

Ooh! I never saw this thread before. I think I'll go with "Chan Ho returns to form before injuring himself". At the end of the year, after some garbage time in the last month or two, 6-13 with a 5.17

10-10, 4.58, and shows just enough to tantilize the Rangers into believing he can actually play, but is injured late.

Well for starters the Rangers stink. So, even if he pitches good, he is going to have a losing record. That said my prediction is going to be 11-13 with a 4.49 ERA. This would be a step back in the right direction for his career, but not the Messiah that Texas wsa looking for.

6-2 Anaheim, in the 2nd now. Buck is pacing in the dugout already... I think several runs in this inning were unearned though. Thats such a misnomer with Chan pitching....

Thank God for Chan Ho Park. We seem to have turned the Rangers into the 1998 Yankees otherwise. Last night, R.A. Dickey, when faced by Angels bats, magically transformed himself into Cy frickin' Young.
Can you tell I am more than a little annoyed that coming into this game today we're 1-5 against the Rangers this season? CR

Heh, heh, remember, a lot of those Angels fans root for the Dodgers, too. They have no love for Park.

I have no idea why Buck left Chan in the game so frickin long. He shouldn't have been in there for that last HR. And its not like the bullpen was overused, the night before as CR has said, Cy Young pitched ;- )

Well our hero got his good stuff back against Kansas City:
4.1 IP, 7 H, 6 R, 4 ER, 2 BB, 4 K, 1 HR (no decision) Thankfully the Rangers bats bailed him out. I still think he should get credit for a loss but anyways... This makes him 1-3 for the season with a 5.64 ERA.
