Newsbreakers
November 28, 2009
The Philadelphia Daily News is reporting that Phillies' pitcher Jamie Moyer is doing well after surgery to remove a small blood collection from his groin area. The surgery was Moyer's second so far this offseason.
Our View:
The Ageless Wonder might finally be slowing down. Moyler lost pretty much all of his fantasy value last season with a miserable showing as a starter, but he could pitch a few more years if he is willing to go out of the pen.
November 25, 2009
According to Todd Zolecki on Twitter, Jamie Moyer has been hospitalized due to repercussions from his groin surgery.
Our View:
Moyer underwent the surgery in October to have three torn tendons repaired and his recuperation clearly isn't going well since he's now holed up in Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. The 46-year-old lefty was also hospitalized for a blood infection six weeks ago and his return looks iffy for 2010.
October 9, 2009
According to Todd Zolecki on Twitter, Jamie Moyer has been hospitalized since Wednesday with a blood infection.
Our View:
Moyer underwent surgery last week to repair torn tendons in his groin, effectively ending his season, and the blood infection is likely a complication of that. The team reports that he is okay though, and the 46-year old lefty is expected o be ready for spring training 2010.
October 6, 2009
Jamie Moyer underwent his abdominal surgery last Friday, according to Scott Lauber's (The News Journal) twitter page.
Our View:
The 46-year-old hurler is walking one mile a day on the treadmill, and is yet to take any pain pills. He is expected to be ready to participate at the start of spring training.
October 1, 2009
According to the Philadelphia Daily News, Phillies' pitcher Jamie Moyer should be ready in time for spring training next season after his groin surgery. Moyer injured himself in his relief appearance on Tuesday night.
Our View:
Moyer might be ready to go by the time spring training kicks off next season, but the question is whether or not he decides to come back for another major league season. It has been a rough year for Moyer, first getting taken out of the rotation and now going down before the playoffs and needing surgery. We wouldn't be at all surprised if he called it a career.
September 30, 2009
Jamie Moyer is done for the season after tearing two tendons in his groin and one in his lower abdominal area, according to the New York Times.
Our View:
There goes the Phillies' long-man for the postseason. And obviously, at age 46, this could sadly be the last we ever see of Moyer. In over 3,900 career innings, he owns a 258-195 record.
September 30, 2009
Phillies' reliever Jamie Moyer left Tuesday's game with a left groin strain, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. No word yet on the severity of the injury.
Our View:
Moyer will be the long man in the Phils bullpen for the postseason if he is healthy enough to do so, but we don't know how bad the injury is as of yet. We will keep you updated on his condition, so stay tuned.
September 22, 2009
Jamie Moyer pitched well on Tuesday against the Marlins, but his offense failed to show up. He allowed just three runs on nine hits and a walk over seven innings, but took the loss as the Phillies got shut out 3-0.
Our View:
Since returning to the Phillies rotation, the ageless wonder is 0-1 in three starts, but has pitched better than his record would indicate. Two of the three were quality starts.
September 12, 2009
After allowing four first inning runs on Saturday, Jamie Moyer settled down and pitched six innings of one-run ball as Philly staked him an 8-5 lead. He would end up with a no-decision, however, as Philadelphia's bullpen again melted down, allowing the Mets to win 10-9.
Our View:
Saturday epitomized the gutsy Moyer. At age 46, obviously his stuff is far from top notch, but his craft is still second to none, however. Expect him to be again fooling hitters in 2010.
September 9, 2009
Jamie Moyer will make another spot-start in place of the ailing J.A. Happ, according to the Associated Press.
Our View:
Moyer will take the hill Saturday against the Mets. The 46-year-old hurler gets the call, as he allowed two or less earned runs in each of his last five starts.
September 7, 2009
Jamie Moyer allowed two earned runs on three hits over six innings in Monday's 4-3 loss at Houston. He had one walk and four strikeouts.
Our View:
Moyer pitched well, but was forced to settle for a no-decision. The 46-year-old hurler is in the zone right now, as he allowed two or less earned runs in each of his last five starts.
August 18, 2009
Jamie Moyer entered Tuesday's game in relief of Pedro Martinez after a rain delay and shut down the Diamondbacks for six straight innings.
Our View:
Moyer allowed just two hits, didn't walk a man and fanned five while on the hill. He wasn't happy about being demoted to the bullpen, but looks like he did just fine Tuesday.
August 11, 2009
Jamie Moyer is unhappy about being moved to the bullpen and feels "misled," according to MLBlogs.com.
Our View:
"I'm really not happy with this decision that the Phillies have made," the ageless lefty said on Tuesday. "We're still in first place. I probably feel like I haven't contributed as well as I could have, but I think if you go around to the other 24 players on our club they would probably say the same type of thing." All-in-all, this is just a sad situation. Pedro is no sure thing, so Moyer could be back at some point, but the team may have been better off just releasing the super vet so he could start somewhere.
August 10, 2009
Jamie Moyer has been moved to the bullpen to make room for Pedro Martinez, according to the Twitter page of Phillies' beat writer Todd Zolecki. Moyer has struggled for much of this season, posting a 10-9 record but carrying a 5.47 ERA.
Our View:
Moyer has been the weak link in the Phillies' rotation this season, but it is still a bit of a shocker that they would move the veteran to the bullpen. They must really like what they have seen from J.A. Happ, because he is staying in the rotation while Moyer is out. Any fantasy value Moyer had is obviously gone after this move.
August 9, 2009
Jamie Moyer allowed three runs (two earned) on 11 hits over five innings in Sunday's 12-3 loss to the Marlins at Citizens Bank Park. He had one walk and one strikeout.
Our View:
Moyer falls to 10-9, and only has one win over his last four starts. He carries a 5.47 ERA and the 46-year-old vet should only be considered for NL-only leagues for his next battle.
August 4, 2009
Jamie Moyer struggled again on Tuesday as he was hit with the loss in Philadelphia's 8-3 defeat at the hands of the Rockies. Moyer went six innings and allowed six runs on six hits while walking four and striking out three.
Our View:
Moyer is 10-8 on the season, but he has been far from spectacular with his 5.55 ERA. The ageless wonder may finally be showing his age, but he should still be able to be a source of wins playing for the Phillies.
July 27, 2009
Jamie Moyer only issued six hits over 6.2 scoreless innings in Monday's 6-2 win at Arizona. He had four walks and five strikeouts.
Our View:
It was a strong outing for Moyer, despite the four free passes. Moyer has earned a win in six of his last seven starts, and the 46-year-old hurler leads the Phillies with 10 wins.
July 22, 2009
Coming off his best start of the season, Jamie Moyer snapped his personal five game winning streak, and the Phillies ten game winning streak on Thursday, pitching five rocky innings, as the Cubs won 10-5 in Philadelphia.
Our View:
The ageless wonder finally came back down to Earth on Wednesday. He's not an exceptional play in mixed formats, but is not a bad spot starter, either. You have to expect anything when he pitches, but more often than not lately, it's been wins.
July 16, 2009
Jamie Moyer had far and away the best start of his season on Thursday, allowing just one hit in seven innings as the Phillies beat the Marlins 4-0 in Miami.
Our View:
After looking perilously close to being done earlier in the year, Moyer has lowered his ERA from a season-high 8.15 on May 13 to 5.58. He still allows a fair amount of runs, but is a good option in NL-only leagues, and a decent spot-starting option in mixed leagues depending on his opponent.
July 9, 2009
Jamie Moyer gave up six earned runs on eight hits over five innings in Thursday's 9-6 win over the Reds at Citizens Bank Park. He had one walk and two strikeouts, and allowed two homers.
Our View:
Moyer had a poor outing, but his teammates provided enough run support for him to claim his eighth win of the season. He has a four-game winning streak, and shall remain active in fantasy lineups.
July 4, 2009
Jamie Moyer won his third straight start on Saturday, and lowered his ERA to below 6.00, as the Phillies beat the hapless Mets 4-1.
Our View:
Moyer looked done earlier this season, but pitched relatively effectively for most of June and has now gotten off to a good start in July. He shouldn't be more than a spot starter for your team, but he is no longer fantasy poison.
June 23, 2009
Jamie Moyer scattered five hits over six innings on Tuesday, and lowered his ERA to below six for the first time since May 2, as the Phillies romped 10-1 over the Rays.
Our View:
Moyer is no longer even a viable spot starting option because of his tendency to get bombed, but it is good to see the ageless lefty pitching effectively. Root for him, just don't add him to your team.
June 11, 2009
Jamie Moyer gave up three earned runs on eight hits over six innings in Thursday's 6-3 win at New York. He issued no walks with three strikeouts.
Our View:
Moyer took a no-decision, and is 1-0 over his last three starts, allowing six total earned runs over the span. He is pitching better after struggling with an 8.01 ERA and four losses in May.
June 6, 2009
Jamie Moyer only allowed two earned runs on four hits over seven innings in Friday's 4-3 loss at Los Angeles. He had three strikeouts with no walks.
Our View:
Moyer pitched well, but took a no-decision rather than a win due to poor run support from his teammates. His record remains at 4-5, with a poor 6.27 ERA.
May 31, 2009
Jamie Moyer logged his best start of the year against Washington on Sunday, picking up his fourth win of the year by allowing one run off three hits and one walk while striking out four in six innings.
Our View:
It's always nice to see the 46-year-old continue to baffle major league hitters. Unfortunately, Moyer's solid outings have been too few and far between this season, and starts against the Nationals can usually be taken with a grain of salt, thus Moyer should remain in the free agency pool in all but the deepest of NL-only leagues.
May 20, 2009
Jamie Moyer was hit with his fourth loss on Wednesday as the Phillies fell to the Reds 5-1. Moyer went six innings and allowed three runs on nine hits while walking one and striking out two.
Our View:
Moyer has not been good this season, but he actually wasn't bad tonight. His team couldn't figure out Reds' starter Aaron Harang, but he still gave up another home run, which has been his Achilles' Heel so far this year. It may be wise to find another option, as Moyer is not a young man and it doesn't look like he has much left in the tank.
May 18, 2009
Jamie Moyer's next start has been pushed back from Tuesday to Wednesday, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Our View:
Cole Hamels will now pitch Tuesday. Skipper Charlie Manuel moved Moyer back a day to give him more rest, and to line the struggling hurler up to face the Marlins instead of the Yankees next week. Moyer is 12-1 over his career against Florida.
May 13, 2009
Jamie Moyer will have to wait another five days to try and win his 250th career game. He missed his chance Wednesday by allowing seven runs on eight hits and a walk in just 4.1 innings. His Phillies fell 9-2 to the Dodgers.
Our View:
It looks like Father Time may have finally caught up with Jamie Moyer. He now has an 8.15 ERA on the season, and the only reason his record sits at 3-3 is because of massive run support from his team. He's not a good fantasy option at this point.
May 7, 2009
Jamie Moyer struggled again on Thursday against the Mets, lasting only 2.1 innings and allowing seven runs on seven hits. He walked two and struck out only one.
Our View:
The Ageless One looked pretty old tonight, and he has had two bad starts in a row. He will get support from the Phillies' lineup, and he is still smart enough to know how to win games. Don't give up on him just yet.
May 2, 2009
Jamie Moyer struggled in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Mets at Citizens Bank Park, as he allowed five earned runs on seven hits over 5.2 innings of work. He had four walks with only two strikeouts.
Our View:
Moyer pitched poorly, and is lucky he avoided taking a loss today. He is 7-4 over 18 career starts against New York.
April 26, 2009
Jamie Moyer continued his dominance over the Marlins on Sunday and improved to 3-1 on the season. The southpaw allowed seven hits and one run over six innings. He also walked one and struck out six. Moyer is 12-1 over 13 career starts against the Marlins.
Our View:
We're not sure why Moyer consistently dominates this NL East opponent, but it's rather comical at this point. Moyer remains a risky fantasy play against every other foe.
April 13, 2009
Jamie Moyer picked up his first win of the season on Monday as the Phillies beat the Nationals 9-8.
Our View:
Moyer went six innings, giving up four earned runs on eight hits while striking out five. He got good run support from his teammates, a trend that will most likely continue throughout the season.
April 7, 2009
Jamie Moyer allowed four runs and eight hits in five innings on Tuesday as the Phillies dropped a 4-0 decision to Atlanta.
Our View:
Moyer surrendered two home runs and also walked a pair of batters. He did a fairly solid job of keeping the ball in the park a season ago, allowing 20 in 196 innings, but he could just as easily revert back to his 2004 form. That season, he allowed a whopping 44 long balls while in Seattle.
April 2, 2009
Jamie Moyer surrendered nine runs on 11 hits in only four innings on Thursday. He allowed three home runs as well, two of which were hit by Washington's Ryan Zimmerman.
Our View:
The 46-year-old Moyer should again be a quality fantasy option, even in deep mixed leagues, but he has now allowed 11 hits in back-to-back starts. If he is unable to get his command back, he'll be in trouble.
March 28, 2009
Jamie Moyer and the Phillies fell to the Pirates, 10-4, with Moyer allowing seven runs in 5.2 innings, getting the loss.
Our View:
Moyer allowed 11 hits on the day. Surprisingly, he also struck out seven hitters. Fantasy owners would be fine with another 16 wins this season, but his spring performance so far is not inspiring much confidence.
March 12, 2009
Jamie Moyer wasn't as sharp Thursday as in his past spring performances, and was tagged with the loss. He allowed two runs and six hits over five innings, but his spring ERA stands at an impressive 2.45.
Our View:
The ageless one continues to prove everyone wrong and seems to be headed for another successful season. People will shy away from him on draft day because of his age. When that happens, feel free to snatch him up.
March 7, 2009
Jamie Moyer was excellent against Detroit on Saturday, giving up one run off four hits and one walk while striking out five in four innings.
Our View:
Moyer has been solid in each of his two outings this spring. He hasn't been a popular fantasy pick the past few seasons due to his age - he's now 46 - but continues to defy logic and provide quality work in the middle of Philadelphia's starting rotation. He's a wonderful asset in NL-only leagues and also deserves real consideration at the end of mixed-league drafts.
February 25, 2009
Jamie Moyer got out to a good start with the Phillies in the Grapefruit League on Wednesday, allowing just one hit and two walks over two innings. He also fanned two batters.
Our View:
This was just a solid performance for one of the most consistent pitchers in the majors over the last couple of decades. Moyer won't blow anyone away, but he proved that he can still be valuable last year with a 16-7 record and a 3.71 ERA.
