I hate Jeff Weaver.
2 starts, 8 IP. Eight! 14 earned runs and 4 strikeouts. He sucks and the Mariners are wasting 8 million on him. Why was this obvious to everyone EXCEPT the Mariners? The M's should have just put Baek or Feierabend at the back of the rotation and pocketed that extra money for the trading deadline. I'm not sure what the Mariners were expecting from Weaver, who went 8-14 last season with a 5.76 ERA (3-10 with a 6.29 in the AL), but it should have been clear that Baek or Feierabend could have done the same thing for FAR less money. Oh, and remember back in December of '05 when I was hoping the Mariners picked up Chad Gaudin? Well, he started for Oakland today and tossed 7.2 innings while only giving up 4 hits and 1 run. Who did he outduel? Oh yeah...the better (yet still terribly overrated) Weaver. Whatever...what's done is done, I'm just bitter. The sooner the Mariners get rid of Weaver, the better.
