Ricky Nolasco Leads Marlins To Another Shut Out Victory Over Pirates 6-0

[AdamRavs]

As long as Ricky's striking people out, I'm not worried about him.

If he's getting lucky on 1-3 strikeouts in 6-7 innings like he was a bit earlier, I'm worried.

But if he's gonna strike out a batter per inning or so, he'll be fine. Especially if he keeps a 9-to-1 K:BB ratio. He's gonna get shelled 1/4 times out there, but as long as he's striking guys out, he'll give us an exceptional chance to win the other 3 times out.

The last two starts for him are encouraging for my confidence. I think him and JJ will put us in a good position to win 75% of the time. That is a good thing.

We need a 3rd starter to give us close to those percentages.. I don't see Sanchez, Voldud or Vasquez giving us anywhere close to that.

Sanchez showed he was capable of that last year.

True will see how it all goes.. Hope he returns to that form

I think Anibal's fine.

His first start he had 7 K's in 5.2 innings.
In Houston, he just had some shit luck on a lot of the hits he allowed, and it's the main reason why his overall #'s look so bad, thus far.
He had a quality start in Philly.

Either way, his stuff seems fine, and I think he'll be a fine #3.

Vazquez and Volstad are rather shitty right now, though.

So yeah about that...
