perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

kendrick three solid

Some may say he's a 3.  I think he's more of a 4.

As long as he builds on what he did last year,  I don't care where he is in the rotation. 


i used to wait for his bottom to fall out...now i wait for the time when im not waiting for his bottom to fall out...i dont know if ill ever get to the point where im confident that hes a major league pitcher
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

That's a Philly trait.  It's what makes us Negadelphians.  Kendrick could rack up 6 Cy Young awards in the next 7 years, set crazy records and most Phillies fans would still be waiting for the bottom to fall out.

And that 1 year without a cy young award would lead for 75% of WIP callers demanding him to be traded for prospects.

Temple statistics professor.

people think Kendrick is going to suck becuase he doesn't strike anyone out and walks too many.   

not exactly a temple journalism class here.

savery lit up

bust

its not official until he has his tommy john surgery

TJ surgery is the cool thing to do now. Its pitchers who dont have James Andrews cuttin on their elbows who you should worry about.

having no stuff to speak kind of has a direct impact on what I said.

PoopyfaceMcGee

Kendrick is basically the "RP" in VORP.  Insert generic average pitcher here.

Wingspan

Kendrick is a Tim Wakefield or Jamie Moyer in the making. His pitch selection is actually perfect for CBP, being a sinkerball pitcher, he is going to get a lot of ground balls.

If he gets more control of his fastball and changeup, he can be in the majors for a long time. Nothing flashy...just steady.
