A guy like Chris Carpenter has great stuff, can't pitch for crap though this year. Litsch had been pretty decent so far despite the fact that talent wise he can't hold Carpenters jock. But he's outpitched him big time so far this season. |
Chris Carpenter can't get people out because his shoulder is complete garbage at this point in his career. It sucks to see him go out like this but he has had too many issues for it not to catch up with him.
Litsch is a 4-5 pitcher because of lack of options.
