    Another hit as Francouer singles. Dumatrait now with a 14.54 ERA.

    I'm amazed this kid can't pitch. I can get with the understanding that some folks aren't as good as advertised, but this kid can't pitch it appears.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    Seriously, his stuff reminds me of a Branden Claussen.

    That's not good by the way.
    Actually, Claussen was much better than Dumatrait before he got hurt. Not good, mind you, but better. He has a 4.21 ERA and a 10-11 record in 2005, over 166 innings.

    Not making excuses for the kid, but I have to think pitching in the rain ain't a load of fun.

    Seriously, can we end the Dumatrait experiment?

    He hasn't shown one single positive thing since he's been in the majors. He has gotten beat around from start until finish. There must be better options.

    What did this guy do to even earn this 4th start?

    My God. Was it because he was a 1st round pick.....8 YEARS AGO!?!?!?!

    I've been a big supporter of PDumatrait on this forum and the minor league forum. But this is just not tolerable. I admit error.

    Guess this is Dumatrait's last start in the Majors for 2007.

    Inning finally over as A. Jones lines out to left. Braves are taking batting practice.
