I request that all the (non-existent) human beings who actually believe (i) Mike Pelfrey is a good pitcher or (ii) has any indication that he'll ever be a good pitcher please step forward and explain to me the support for that opinion.
Mike may well be a great guy, and I'm not sure anyone in MLB hostory has done more to make mouthpieces cool, but the fact is: He Sucks.
For parts of three seasons he strikes no one out, walks too many guys, and has never shown that he'll improve in these areas.
If and when Pedro returns, I hope they keep Figueroa in the rotation. He's not good either, but he's better than Pelfrey.
Julio is waiting for Omar to call. If he justified a two year contract for a 47 year old, well I'm sure he could be a valued bench player.
I wouldn't hold my breath on Pedro. He'll probably have an amazing 4 innings before going back to being a soft-throwing .500 pitcher.
Santana & Maine, prey for rain.
Pelfrey will be fine, he just needs to develop a second pitch.With the movement on his fastball, an effective off speed pitch would make him a passable 3rd starter in the ML.
