My first thought- Atlanta's starting pitcher Javier Vazquez is 131-132 for his career. That's what you call an average starting pitcher. Vazquez is 4-3 for the season. He's better than an average pitcher this season. Looking more closely @ his career record, Javier went 5-15 in his first season with Montreal.
Jonathan Sanchez is 1-4 for the season and is 14-22 for his career. Does that constitute being a below average pitcher? I think so... Which actually causes some concern for me, because it lowers Sanchez's value in a trade.
In my view, Sanchez is expendable because 19 year old lefty Madison Bumgarner should be ready to be in the rotation by next season @ the latest.
