    Lets see how he does in ST.
    The San Francisco Giants won the 2010 World Series and no one can ever take that away from me!

    In 2012 they did it again. Nope, can't take that one away from me, either.

    Matt Moore just might have the best pure stuff in baseball at the moment (didnt say he was the best pitcher). Wade Davis, quite frankley, doesnt. The two really arent comparable.

    Wade was thought to the next up and coming and was touted so by Rays management and news media around here after his great amazing rookie season wade has been a disaster never know what you may get from the kid. And on top of that after his rookie year Rays signed him to a long term deal.

    He's still just 26 with only two full seasons under his belt. His rookie season wasn't infinitely better than last year. Unless you consider '09 his rookie year.

    Hahaha, anyhow...

    Moore looks like he has potential and if Davis falters he could easily be hooked for Moore. The Rays have a "good" problem.

    The Rays are a penny pinching organization because they've had to be for many years. I fully expect them to put Moore in the rotation and let him polish himself on the job.

    Heck, the Red Sox did the same thing with Lester and Masterson, and they had a good wallet from which to draw an extra starting pitcher if they'd preferred. Sometimes you just have to let a talented guy go through a bit of a struggle and see what he learns from it.

    I like this approach, Imgran. If the guy has good control and movement on all his pitches then send him out there. Theres nothing more he can learn feasting on minor league pitching.
