DateQuestionAnswer
2012-02-07 13:00:00Does Garrett Richards have a shot a holding down a spot in the rotation at any point this year or will the Angels go with crappy veterans?
(BrowningNagle from Louisville, KY)
Well, there is only one spot in that rotation available, as the 1-4 is pretty special. I don't think Richards is ready for it yet. (Kevin Goldstein)
2011-08-17 13:00:00fair enough, what kind of ceiling do you think Garrett Richards has?
(NoahBraun from SD)
I'm a big fan of Richards, and have never really bought the growing consensus that Tyler Chatwood is the better pitcher. He might have the best two fastballs in the system, and he's gone from being unaccountably wild to extremely pitch efficient and capable of getting 15 groundballs in a row. (Sam Miller)
