    Hitchcock was a starter when he came up, will always be suited as a starter.

    LOL, he even said he didn't like being a spot starter/long reliever? I'm sure he didn't, either would anyone else. There aren't players who are really good at that role, or are best fit for it. That is where bad starting pitchers on good teams pitch.

      I don't think he will be hitting it much. Maybe 1 or 2 hits all year. Tops.

      Your right, how many times do you think he will be throne out at First Base,
      or how long will it take him to have a heart attack trying to leg out a Double.

            If I could pull out the article from the UT when the Padres signed Hitchcock, I would, he said that. Please, you only read stuff in NY and I ready stuff in SD, two different places, two different newspapers. Don't think I'm just coming up with @#$*.

            And as for bad starting pitchers, so I'm guessing the Yanks starters are so good that aces and good pitchers on other ball clubs are their spot starters and long relievers?

            Hitchcock being more successful as a starter with the Cards than being a spot starter/long reliever shows something that you are still denying.

                        Alright, I guess you totally missed the point. Of course he said he's rather be a starter!! What do you think he'll say, "No, I only like to pitch when my team is down 10 runs. I like eating up innings and ruining my era. I'd rather pitch a couple times a year when my team is desperate than every 5 days." Any pitcher would put up better numbers in that situation. He pitched well for St. Louis, but so do a lot of guys who go to the NL in the middle of the season, and it's going to take a lot more than 6 starts to convince me that he is still a quality pitcher. His velocity is bad, and his location isn't good enough to overcome that. He is a shell of the pre-surgery Hitchcock.

                              What are you two arguing about?

                              Here, let me make it simple.
