    Why? He gets worse and worse each time out. I assume they dont want to kill his confidence any more.
    After former Broncos quarterback Brian Griese sprained his ankle and said he was tripped on the stairs of his home by his golden retriever, Bella: “The dog stood up on his hind legs and gave him a push? You might want to get rid of that dog, or put him in the circus, one of the two.”

        Coming up, Drabek was rumoured to have some maturity concerns, but also a good 'feel' for the mound. He's only shown 1 of those attributes so far!

        Minors should be the right thing for him. Stop trying to nibble, eat up some minor leaguers with that great 'stuff' and come back with some confidence.

        Here's hoping he's not the second coming of Burnett...cause that's how he's looked so far. Great stuff, no command, and little mound maturity.

          Oh the old Vote of Confidence thing? Managers are a lot like lawyers.

              Exactly! Don't know if the PCL and Las Vegas will be the best thing to build confidence for a pitcher scared of getting hit

                Farrell said Drabek was sent to Triple-A instead of Double-A because tough PCL league will present more challenges.

                  but balls fly out of Vegas...and aside from the walks, i think Drabek's big problem has been the inability to regroup after giving up a run or two.
