  • He was a bust waste of 10 Million Dollars his ERA is like 4.92 such a bust

  • My boy Andre DelColle pitched against Porcello when he was a junior and Rick was a senior. Porc threw a no-hitter and DC pitched a full-game 2-hitter but lost. Unfortunately his elbow is for shit now otherwise he'd be pitching for the Angels today (they drafted him but he went to play college ball).

  • @Nofearfaber

    Wins (for pitchers) aren't a good stat for evaluating pitchers as they are dependent on bullpen, run support, etc. Things that the pitchers don't have control over.

    I don't think Porcello's a bust (yet), but I have a hard time seeing him having a long, successful career when he has a very mediocre strikeout rate.

  • thank you mike ilitch

  • Anyone who passed him up is retarded!.. go tigers!

  • Ric Porcello didn't sucked. He's 14-8 and has the most wins in all the rookie pitchers in baseball. He's one of the reasons why the Tigers are still up there. He's worth all the hoopla!

  • Hes a rookie. what else you expect. Not every pitcher is going to be like Tommy Hanson of the Braves.

  • What a shock, ESPN analysts talk almost exclusively about the Yankees and Red Sox.

  • oh i just said Porcello sucked cause he sucked it up big time the other night on sunday night baseball vs. the sox. he has his good and bad games. i just dint like the way he pitched. but on his most recent start he was light out which is good.
