Jered Weaver
is pulling an Arroyo this year. He got pulled after 3 1/3 his last time out, and he hasn't really looked good all year. His ERA is now approaching 6 for the year. What's going on with him?

Re: Jered Weaver
Bad genes?
Kidding, sort of....I don't know what kind of 'stuff' he has as I don't recall seeing him pitch live, but Jeff had a few good seasons then dropped off, maybe Jared has the same future.

Re: Jered Weaver
If that ends up being the case, maybe it was a good pick taking Homer Bailey over him in the '04 draft after all!

Re: Jered Weaver
I think the Reds could trade Bronson Arroyo for Jered Weaver straight up

Re: Jered Weaver
Jered Weaver is a very overrated pitcher.

Re: Jered Weaver
He is continuously getting easier to make contact against. His strikeout % has dropped each year in the league. He has gone from 21% as a rookie to 15% this year.

Re: Jered Weaver
Jared's mechanics aren't easy on the shoulder. He has battled alot of shoulder stiffness in the past.
