How Bad Is Weber?
Weber has appeared in 16 games and allowed runs in 12 of them. That puts him squarely in the ranks of the worst pitchers in the majors. Here's a list of pitchers in the majors right now with 15 or more innings pitched who've allowed one or more runs per inning pitched:
| Pitcher | Team | IP | Starts | R |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| B Anderson | KC | 54.2 | 10 | 56 |
| S Elarton | COL | 41.1 | 8 | 45 |
| M Kinney | MIL | 30.2 | 6 | 30 |
| K Ainsworth | BAL | 30.2 | 7 | 34 |
| N Cornejo | DET | 25.2 | 5 | 25 |
| B Weber | ANA | 19.1 | 0 | 19 |
| D Wright | CWS | 17.2 | 4 | 17 |
| C Durbin | CLE | 16.2 | 2 | 21 |
| J Lopez | COL | 16.0 | 0 | 16 |
| A Hernandez | MIL | 16.0 | 1 | 18 |
| J Haynes | CIN | 15.0 | 4 | 17 |
What's frightening about that list is only Lopez and Weber are relievers. In other words, Weber's getting as many chances as starting pitchers for teams dying for starting pitching, like the Rockies, Indians, and Detroit. Heck, I would rather have seen Ramon Ortiz last night.
(Yes, I know I'm rounding up in Weber's case.)
