Odds and Ends: Pavano, Lima, Sabathia

By Tim Dierkes [April 16, 2008 at 2:30pm CST]

Today's link collection contains a trio of awesome pitchers. Enjoy.

Carl Pavano is talking about five or six more seasons; his new agent calls him a "1-2 starter." You can chuckle, but some team will probably toss him a million bucks this winter.
The Kia Tigers have already had enough of Jose Lima. Coincidentally here's a funny quote from Lima regarding his Atlantic League paycheck from '03.
Ken Rosenthal discusses C.C. Sabathia's situation, noting that the Indians could probably sign him if they'd give five years.
Rany Jazayerli writes in praise of Dayton Moore.
Rule V pick Fernando Hernandez is headed back to the White Sox.

As a Dodger fan I wouldn't mind seeing CC in Blue for the next 7 years.

I'll eat my mouse if Pavano is a 200 IP #1 starter.

"Those guys are very rare, 200-inning guys are very rare in this game, and they're the ones that make the money. And he did it two years in a row, before he got hurt, and I'm sure he's going to do it again."

He threw 200 innings TWO years in a row, THAT'S AMAZING!!!!! He's now been hurt THREE years in a row. Get out the A-1 sauce, I'll join you in eating that mouse.

Carl Pavano can certainly be a 1-2 starter; in fact, I'll bet he looks pretty darn good in Long Island Duck orange and green.

Dayton Moore is going to lead the Royals to levels they haven't been at in a long time. As a Braves fan, I wish Atlanta could have held on to him so he could have succeeded John Schuerholz.
