Jonathan Sanchez Experiment with Giants Needs to End

Thanks to the MLB package on cable and a pretty light schedule in the major leagues, I watched Jonathan Sanchez pitch for the San Francisco Giants against the Oakland A’s last night. After painfully watching Sanchez for 5.1 IP last night, I have come to this conclusion—the Jonathan Sanchez experiment needs to come to a sudden end in San Francisco.

Sanchez has now been in the majors for four years, and the reality is, he is not good. In four years, Sanchez has a lifetime record of 15-26 with a 5.26 ERA and an absurd 172 walks, and opponents have a .359 OBP against him in 316.2 IP.
