I've watched him throw several times. He didn't look in sync.

Don’t know what that means, but he will be 38 in June. He may simply be at the end of the road. He stays in fantastic shape, but no one beats Father Time.

Sorry for being a little vague. He looked like he was having trouble with his release point, because his command was off. But you're right; no one beats Father Time.

Could he be any worse than Harris or Sipp?
When the Clark is dead, Spack will eat his spleen. Before he dies, Spack will put his posts under the knife so the Clark will see his threads wiped out forever...

Belisle will “be a FA, go to AAA with someone, have some fun, and see what happens.”

His words.

Too bad he’s not a lefty.  I can imagine that would be the pinnacle of interest; fitting the need of your favorite team and having that personal connection.
Another trenchant comment by a jealous lesser intellect.

Good. Just in time to heal our hitting.
I remember all the good times me 'n Miller enjoyed
Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy
