Guillermo Mota Is Crappy Again


After pitching out of his mind over the past two months, the words "Guillermo Mota" and "outright awful" now go hand in hand once again. Take for example his utter dominance from late May to late July...

5/22- 7/29

34.1 IP, 0.26 ERA, .5865 WHIP, 3.00 K/BB, .371 OPS against

That's better than outstanding. Unfortunately, since July 30th Guillermo Mota been anything but...

7/30 - 8/12
6.1 IP, 10.32 ERA, 2.300 WHIP, .75 K/BB, 1.086 OPS against

Perhaps it's time for Mr. Mota to get reacquainted with Mr. Mop.

He's making me appreciate Jeff Weaver. And lord knows that's not an easy thing to do.

It's a small sample size (only 6 innings) but Mota's been getting rocked recently.

I didn't know you had a site. I've added it to the links.

Thanks for the link, I really appreciate it. Just started the site a week ago, getting traffic to it is much harder than I expected/hoped.

Small sample size or not, Mota's been pretty frustrating since he stopped setting up EG.

But it's only a game. Mota will probably have another run of very good pitching at some point in the (near) future.

I just wish we had gotten a glimpse at Haeger.
