Denver McQuary

[jwells]

Dismissed from the team for violation of team rules.

[KOdawg1]

What a damn shame. He had good stuff when he could control it.

[trob115]

Hate that , but he?s had more chances than he should?ve to get clean.

[The Federalist Engineer]

That's a big loss, are you sure he is dismissed and not suspended?

[Irondawg]

sad waste of arm talent - one of the interviews I heard had asked about him the other day and they said he was doing well.

[jwells]

I heard dismissed. Real shame. Couldn't stay on track

[Homedawg]

Not a huge shock. He's lived on the edge forever. Hate it, but it's his fault.

[Todd4State]

He reminded me of Nuke Laloosh. I don't know that it's a big loss. His command was always way off and I don't think he would have cracked the rotation or been a major guy out of the pen being as wild as he was.

[smootness]

He was not good.

[Bothrops]

This sucks for several reasons. But he knew the consequences.

[Homedawg]

The old adage, million dollar arm and a ten cent brain, well that's Denver, except the million dollar arm part.

Perfect fit, Todd. My buddies and I have been calling him Nuke since last year. And I'm with ya, I don't think it's a huge loss. $10 million dollar arm and a 5 cent head. Hate it for him on a personal level, but I just never had the feeling he'd put it together. Latest in our long line of guys with ridiculous arms and no command.

[Cooterpoot]

No big deal. Hasn't shown he's capable of helping us much.

[shoeless joe]

Guys with great talent have indiscretions swept under the rug from an early age when it comes to athletics. And this is what that very thing can lead to.

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

No big deal. Hasn't shown he's capable of helping us much.

He showed he has potential. Great FB and great sinker. As a program all you can do is get guys with potential and hope they get it together. Dakota Hudson was nothing till his Jr year, for example

[BuckyIsAB****]

And so it begins.....***

[CadaverDawg]

This will save me from the stomach ache I got every time I heard he was starting a big midweek game. He came through some, but the walks and control issues made me want to put my face through a glass window. Hate it for depth though. Hope the kid gets his crap together so baseball is the only thing he ruins in his life.

Headline from CL:
Mississippi State dismisses pitcher Denver McQuary from team

[bulldogcountry1]

Good for Lemonis.

Is it safe to assume he was on scholarship, and we still have to count him against the 35? If he was already on a short rope, he shouldn't be.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

That may knock our roster down to 33 players... we had one that was receiving scholarship transfer out and Mcquary...

I think Ashcraft, Knowlton, and now McQ are all scholarships losses

We also got a dead money TJ with a WHIP of Infinity still on the roster.

[Homedawg]

Ashcroft left prior to the year. He doesn't count. Just the other two you mentioned.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Hopefully we won’t have to pitch Mangum this year.

[Saltydog]

was still learning to pitch. From my understanding though, Foxhall had worked with him and his command was better. Where this hurts is when you get into post season tourney's.

[I seen it dawg]

We've got guys. We will be fine.

[sleepy dawg]

He'll probably end up at USM and we'll get beat by our own player again.

[Ari Gold]

If he has any sense he declares for the mlb draft .. and he will get drafted.

You having a blonde moment ARi? you don't declare for the mlb draft.

Football on my mind ...

[smootness]

I would gladly face him and take the 11 walks that come with the 8 K's.

[The Federalist Engineer]

We would do what UGA did and just take every pitch unless it is meat ball, it would be 11 walks and 8 Hits

[Saltydog]

Anyone remember Jacob Shempert? Same issues!

[Todd4State]

Anyone remember Jacob Shempert? Same issues!

Totally different issues.

[Saltydog]

I must?ve been given some bad info then....
