Big Pelf fails again - What a headcase


...That's it! I am DONE with Mike Pelfrey! I am done with thinking that somehow a 6'10' stud pitcher who throws 96 mph can be successful (Please know i'm being sarcastic).

Once again, Mike Pelfrey split a game with El Duque and had another chance to at least make Willie Randolph actually have to think about the 5th starters spot. After pitching 3 scoreless innings today, he blew up in the ninth giving up 3 runs and blowing the game.

There is something wrong in this guys head, because it's obvious he has the physical ability. He seems to know what he's doing wrong, and sometimes even fixes it. But eventually he always seems to get back into his bad habits, walking batters and being constantly behind on the count.

He still has not mastered his secondary pitches and just can't seem to get it right.

Good luck to this guy - Seriously he's going to need it.
