A quick word about Ankiel's at-bat yesterday: Wood never threw him a fastball. Ankiel has struggled against fastballs since he came into the league, according to Josh Kalk's pitch-type stats --- a batting average in the low .200s with When we last saw Wellemeyer, he was taking a Jason Marquis-like pounding from the Mets -- 12 hits and 6 ER in just 5 IP. It wouldn't have been a surprising start a year...

Jason Marquis takes the hill tonight at SBC/PacBell/AT&T/Candlestick/The House That Barry Juiced Park tonight and a question instantly pops in my groggy little mind: Is Jason Marquis worthy of being a #3 starter on a MLB playoff team? And, quickly, as I attempt to comb through the cobwebs, an answer swims to the surface: No. Of course, we could just look Marquis' '08 stats vs. that of the #3 starters...

The Cubs lost their first home series in a good long while to the Orioles, of all teams. Of course, considering Jason Marquis was pitching the rubber-match, the blow-out loss isn’t surprising. Let’s roll that beautiful Marquis line score: 7 runs, all earned, in 4 innings of work. Ouch. Not good for any starter on a [...]

The Chicago Cubs have been on a nice roll as of late. So has Jason Marquis, who takes the mound for the National League Central leaders for this afternoon's finale of a three-game series with the Baltimore Orioles.

Booing A.J. Pierzynski has become one of the mainstays of the City Series, whether he's hitting a home run, flipping his bat and making a scene after a strikeout or tagging Jason Marquis out at first on a heads-up play after Marquis took a mini-step toward second.

Fairly Useful Google Doc spreadsheet with pitch f/x stats and L/R splits THT Pitch f/x Avgs for comparison PECOTA Card Fangraphs THT Card The one word summarizing Jason Marquis' 4.24 ERA is lucky. His sinker, which I guess it can be called, is a bad pitch for different reasons against LHB and RHB. Against lefties, he can't or won't throw it for a strike with any kind of consistency. I take this to...
