Chad Billingsley Alert

It's being reported that Billingsley has taken Schmidt's spot in the rotation.

He has ace stuff and he has relief and starting eligibility.

He starts Thursday (maybe) and could be a two start pitcher next week.

I love this kid.

Re: Chad Billingsley Alert

Well, USA Today says they have decided against skipping his start.

Hope it works out for you.

So you think Lincecum is better than Billingsley overall? I think it's a toss-up at best right now, but I guess we'll find out once Chad gets a couple of starts under his belt.

Re: Chad Billingsley Alert

Lincecum's peripherals are fine. Billingsley does not have the upside that Tim does. Once he gets the ball over, he'll be back to awesome.
