I share the same sentiment towards Eli. I'm happy for him and wish him success, but he is benefitting from others' bad luck at the moment. The old saying that "sometimes it's better to be lucky than good" appropriately applies in the case of Eli.So you have to get that I am a pitching enthusiast. It is about the pitching not the pitcher per say. Don't take it so personal.
I don't know Eli, and I respect him TOTALLY for making it to the big leagues, he is one of the rare human beings capable of it. Hats off to him and ALL BIG LEAGUE PITCHERS.
But that is totally different then what he throws up to the plate. And something most folks who post her just can't get. They all take it so personal when I talk about the quality of the pitches.
To each his own I guess
He's the type that's easy to root for. Probably due to his pedestrian stuff and the underdog status that seems to describe him. I think credit should be given where it's due, and Eli has had a very good minor league career even though his physical abilities are limited.
