Is Joe Blanton having a Brian Kingman-type Season?
I'm really beginning to feel really bad for Joe Blanton. Talk about tough luck. Perhaps I am stating the obvious, but it needs to be said. His is perhaps one of the most undeserved 2 and 6 records in recent baseball history. His ERA is quite excellent, but his record is horrible. His karma should allow him to be the "winning" pitcher in a string of 12 to 10 slugfests. If this keeps up, Blanton is on pace to match Brian Kingman who in 1980 had an 8 and 20 record for the A's, but had a very decent 3.83 ERA. Kingman let being a 20 game loser get to his head and never really pitched to his potential. I hope Blanton realizes that the fault is not his.
