Both are horrible. They need to be drop which equals some money that is actually worth signing free agents in the off-season.

Igawa/71 IP/6.75 ERA
Hawkins/1096 IP/4.73 ERA
2007 Hawkins for Rockies
62 IP/3.42 ERA
Hawkins is right at league average for his career and pitched a lot better in the 2nd half of the season last year. Luis Vizcaino on the other hand has only gave the Rockies 1 innings work.

It isn't fair nor close comparing the two. LaTroy has had success and Kei...well I don't think I have to explain that one."After my fourth season I asked for $43,000 and General Manager Ed Barrow told me, 'Young man, do you realize Lou Gehrig, a 16-year-man, is playing for only $44,000?' I said, Mr. Barrow, there is only one answer to that - Mr. Gehrig is terribly underpaid."- Yankees outfielder Joe DiMaggio

I was talking about of Hawkins has been this season. He has proved nothing in NY and his previous/career statistics have been meaningless this season.Quest for 27Winners make goals, losers make excuses.

Previous to his last 2 outings Hawkins have 4 or 5 good outings so it isn't as if he is worthless as you say.

? no comparison. Hawkins is a veteran and Igawa is a project. Not a fan of Hawkins. I feel Joe made mistakes putting him in against the Os (especially in 11th!!). He was in their organization and they know him and I don't have much confidence in him. Igawa was another mistake by Cash (reaction to BoSox Dice K). He is a project that we hope will work out while Hawkins is what you see is what you get.
Different pitchers. Igawa we hope to be a lefty starter (I doubt it) and Hawkins is only a reliever.
