I will agree Gaza is a long shot but your acting like Santana is a cy young winner

Never said that but he's been one of the top SP's in the AL.

Would cost quite a bit.

Beachy can fill in whose arguably a TOR when he's pitching.

Tim Hudson has a 2.77 ERA in his last 9 starts and has pitched at least 7 innings in 7 of those starts. How much better do you want him to be?

Exactly, the Huddy bashing gets old. He's been a rock despite a small blip and poor run support for a bunch of games in a row. His ERA in that time is even more impressive considering the errors behind him not ruled such (making those runs earned).

Take a deep breath. I didn't BRAG about it. I pointed out that it is a relief for the bullpen (you need to read things in context more often, in my opinion). That is a fact. And even with the terrible start today, his numbers are perfectly average for a #4.

Paul Maholm's last 16 starts counting today, 92 IP, 114 H, 61 R, 55 ER, 28 BB, 57 SO, 12 HR, 5.38 ERA. Oh and that's 5 2/3 IP a start.

You seriously think that's fine?

Maholm has been crap since his hot start.

He needs to be replaced, doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out.

I guess you guys are the ones who keep saying the braves farm sucks

This isn't the trade deadline 2 years ago. These teams can't get a pick from the these guys. The price of trades is not has high has it once was.
 
And one more thing if the Braves lose today they will be 7-9 in Maholm's last 16 starts despite Maholm's W/L record.

As I said before, you need to look at some things in context more often. His whole season counts. Today. April. May. And on and on. You are acting like I am saying he is an Ace. I am not. I am saying he is a better option (when healthy) at #4 than Wood, at least this year. And he is easier on the bullpen than Beachy will be for a month or three (if we are lucky).
 
I don't see Maholm having much trade value now. He might be headed to DL too. If so my guess is he ends up in our bullpen assuming he's only out a short time (15 day DL).
 
Well, that's depressing. I was out running some errands, check my phone for an update and see we're up 2-0. Check it a little while later when I'm on my way home and see we're up 4-0. Get home, in a good mood thinking we're going to come out of the All-Star break and put together a little winning streak (instead of this win one, lose one, win one, lose one nonsense that it feels like we've been doing for a month now), turn the game on and see we're down 9-4.

Talk about a way to turn a great Saturday into a really bad one in a hurry. I've reached my limit with Maholm, and it's only made worse because of Medlen and Huddy's inconsistencies and struggles. If Maholm was the only one, wouldn't hate him so much right now.

I need to look at things in more context? He got off to a terrific start in his first 4 starts. The numbers I posted are what he has done since then. What more context do you need? Sorry that you think Maholm's fine when he clearly isn't. And why do you think Alex Wood is incapable of averaging 5 2/3 IP a start while giving up less runs? Why. What did Wood do in his bullpen work and that makes you so certain it's impossible?
