Steve Trachsel, Clutch God?

Or as my brother says: "Say what you want about his ERA, but Steve Trachsel just racks up W's."

The scores are interesting

But he was garbage in the 2006 playoffs. Jeff Suppan winked at him and hit a home run, the swine.

Trying to believe is my full-time occupation.

A "clutch" god would have lasted at least four innings in one of his playoff starts

And they wouldn’t have completely imploded the day after a terrible loss, and then voluntarily pulled himself out of the game after one inning, knowing his team needed innings.

Basically, fuck Steve Trachsel.

one thing about Tracshel, he pretty much gave you the same thing year in and year out. He had that one hiccup that sent him to the minors but came back to his old form afterwards. I would love aTracshel right now

James you're brother are not smart

Gas prices today are a lot like a pitcher's ERA. Anything under 3 is amazing, under 4 is pretty good and anything 5 and up is something you want to avoid.

Steve Traschel

often made me clutch my face (can you clutch your face? Sounds weird) because his suckitude was quite massive sometimes, and go, “Oh, God”, yes…

Scott Feldman reminds me of Steve

Even when Steve went 15-8 in 2006 his ERA was still hovering around 5 with a 5.5 xFIP and 0.1 WAR. Feldman did much the same thing last season with the Rangers while winning 17 games, except he was a bit better at a sub-5 ERA and xFIP, and worth 3.3 WAR.

Trachsel was certainly consistent in that watching him pitch always took time off of my life. ANd of course he was mostly useless in the playoffs
