Get Igawa out of this rotation!

Anyone else finding it painful to watch him pitch?

He goes on a bit of streak then he lets 1 walk get into his head & before you know it the bases are loaded.

He needs to be sent down to AAA.

I said this after the first time he pitched, and people disagreed with me so much, they made it seem like I was talking about Roger Clemens in his prime. The Napoleon Dynamite lookin mofo is no good.

Igawa is looking more and more like he belongs in the bullpen.

I was at the game, and when the only pitch you can get over the plate is a 89 mph fastball, youre going to get rocked. Hitters are just going to sit back on it, let the offspeed crap go, and rock you all day. Give me Karstens, and Rasner all year ove KEI. It isnt any fun watching him pitch either. It was the same way in spring training, the guy cant throw strikes, when he misses with his fastball its up in the zone.

I said this about Igawa in a previous post after the Arod walk off grand slam game. I still completely agree, although Rasner and Karstens have to step it up

The way it is, Igawa would make our bullpen even worse. He would be just another body to throw out on the mound when we are losing

He throws garbage. Only pitch he threw for strikes was an awful changeup that he couldnt set up with a good fastball. This guy sucks hairy balls. I'd rather have Rasner in there or Karstens or someone from AAA. Get rid of this hump.

:rofl: :rofl:

Last time I checked pitchers who throw 89 up in the zone, cant throw their offspeed pitches for strikes, have an ERA over 7, a whip over 1.5 and average 6 IP per start were very hard to find. Come on I could throw my right nut out there and the yankees would have a better chance of winning.

All you have to do to hit Igawa is lay off his offspeed stuff because he cant throw it in the zone, and sit on his weak fastball, which is usually belt high

Your wish has been granted. Karstens will start on Saturday and Igawa has been demoted to the bullpen.
