Newsbreakers

October 19, 2009

Jered Weaver didn't factor into the decision on Monday as they Angels outlasted the Yankees 5-4 in 11 innings to cut their defecit in the series to 2-1. Weaver went five innings and allowed three runs on five hits while walking three and striking out four.

Our View:

Weaver wasn't nearly as dominating in this outing as he was in the first round against Boston, but he gave his team a chance to win tonight. The Angels despertely needed this win, and now they will have a chance to even the series in Game 4.

October 10, 2009

Jered Weaver dominated the Red Sox on Friday with seven-plus masterful innings in a 4-1 win to give the Angels a 2-0 lead in the ALDS.

Our View:

Weaver allowed one run on just two hits and a pair of walks over 7.1 innings and struck out seven. The Red Sox couldn't seem to get anything going against him all game as he was nearly flawless in his first postseason win of 2009.

October 2, 2009

Jered Weaver only issued three hits over five scoreless innings in Friday's 5-2 win at Oakland. He had no walks with five strikeouts.

Our View:

Weaver snapped his three-game losing streak, and picked up his 16th win of 2009. He also trimmed his ERA to 3.75, and looks to be ready for the playoffs.

September 26, 2009

Jered Weaver only allowed two earned runs on six hits over six innings in Friday's 3-0 loss to Oakland at Angel Stadium. He had three walks and a strikeout.

Our View:

Weaver pitched well, but fell to 15-8 due to no run support from his teammates. On the positive side, he trimmed his ERA to 3.84, and allowed two or less earned runs in three of five starts this month.

September 19, 2009

Jered Weaver allowed three runs on five hits and a pair of walks over six innings in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Rangers. He fanned four, but fell to 15-7 on the year.

Our View:

Weaver was electric in the first half, going 10-3 with a 3.22 ERA, but has struggled since the break with a 5-4 record and an ERA near 5.00. He's been significantly worse on the road as well, sporting an ERA more than two full runs higher than his mark at home.

September 14, 2009

Jered Weaver was rocked for five earned runs on eight hits over 7.1 innings in Monday's 5-3 loss at New York. He had four walks with two strikeouts.

Our View:

Weaver was a disappointment tonight, after allowing two or less earned runs in each of his previous three starts. He still leads the Angels with 15 wins and should bounce back fine.

September 9, 2009

Jered Weaver pitched 6.1 innings of two-run ball on Wednesday to improve to 15-5 on the season, as the Angels beat Seattle 6-3 at home.

Our View:

More brilliance from Weaver, who at age 26 is having the finest season of his young career thus far.

September 4, 2009

Jered Weaver only issued one earned run on nine hits over seven innings in Friday's 2-1 win at Kansas City. He had one walk with six strikeouts.

Our View:

Weaver claimed his team-leading 14th win of 2009, and trimmed his ERA to 3.79. He allowed one or less earned runs in three of his last four starts.

August 29, 2009

Jered Weaver allowed no runs over six innings on Saturday night, but took his ninth no-decision, as the Angels lost to Oakland 4-3 at home.

Our View:

Through 27 starts in 2009, Weaver is 13-5 with a 3.89 ERA.

August 25, 2009

Jered Weaver failed to pick up his 14th win on Monday, allowing five runs in just 5.1 innings to the Tigers, as the Angels lost 10-7 at home.

Our View:

It was the third time in five starts in August that he had allowed at least four runs, and he could be hitting will as he is just nine innings away from setting a career high in the category. With the Angels comfortably ahead in the AL-West, look for him to get some extra rest down the stretch.

August 19, 2009

Jered Weaver only issued seven hits over nine scoreless innings in Wednesday's 3-0 win at Cleveland. He had one walk and three strikeouts.

Our View:

Weaver collected his team-leading 13th win of 2009, as well as his fourth complete game and second shutout. He bounced back well from his last start, when he was lit up for eight earned runs over 3.1 innings at Baltimore.

August 14, 2009

Jered Weaver was lit up for eight earned runs on nine hits over a mere 3.1 innings in Friday's 16-6 loss at Baltimore. He had four walks and three strikeouts.

Our View:

Weaver was dealt a loss for the first time since June 20, and continues to lead the Angels with a 12-4 mark. He continues to pace the Angels with 140 strikeouts as well.

August 8, 2009

Jered Weaver tossed a gem against a stacked Rangers' lineup on Saturday. He allowed just two runs on five hits and a walk over 7.1 innings and fanned 11 hitters. He improved to 12-3 on the season as the Angles nipped the Rangers 3-2.

Our View:

Weaver was incredible in the first half, but has been miserable since. His ERA jumped from 2.08 on June 14th to 3.79 before Saturday's start. Since July first he has had just two quality starts, so it was nice to see him put together a positive outing today.

August 2, 2009

Jered Weaver allowed four runs on four hits and two walks over 6.1 innings, but picked up the victory on Sunday. He also fanned 11 in the Angels 13-4 win over the Twins.

Our View:

The Ks were a nice fantasy surprise in this one, but Weaver still wasn't sharp. He's 11-3 on the season, but hasn't had a quality start since July 11th (four starts). Since June 14th his ERA has risen from 2.08 to 3.79. It's been a frustrating second half to say the least.

July 29, 2009

Jered Weaver got hammered again on Tuesday, but his offense bailed him out as the Angels beat the Indians by a score on 7-6. Weaver went five innings and allowed four runs on eight hits while walking three and striking out three.

Our View:

Weaver has made two bad starts in a row, but he has taken a no decision in both. Fantasy owners should be a bit concerned about his poor play as of late, but he still has the goods to bounce back.

July 18, 2009

Jered Weaver was roughed up for five earned runs on eight hits over a mere 3.2 innings on work in Saturday's 11-6 win at Oakland. He had three walks and three strikeouts.

Our View:

Weaver takes a no-decision for his poor outing. He still leads the Angels with 10 wins and 107 strikeouts, and should be able to bounce back fine for fantasy owners.

July 11, 2009

Jered Weaver gave up four runs (three earned) on four hits over six innings in Saturday's 14-8 win over the Yankees at Angel Stadium. He had two walks and racked up nine strikeouts.

Our View:

Weaver earned his team-leading 10th win of the season, and also continues to lead with a 3.22 ERA and 104 strikeouts. He has not taken a loss over his last four starts.

July 6, 2009

Jered Weaver allowed four runs (three earned) on seven hits over seven innings in Monday's 9-4 win over the Rangers at Angel Stadium. He had one walk and racked up nine strikeouts.

Our View:

The Angels provided plenty of run support for Weaver to claim his team-leading ninth win of the season. He bounced back fine from his last outing when he was lit up for seven earned runs over 5.1 innings at Texas.

July 1, 2009

Jered Weaver was lit up for seven earned runs on eight hits over 5.1 innings in Wednesday's 9-7 loss at Texas. He had one walk and three strikeouts.

Our View:

Weaver had a nightmarish outing, and should be happy he ends the night with a no-decision rather than a loss. He is still tied for the team lead with eight wins, and was also leading with a 2.65 ERA heading into tonight's game. Weaver should bounce back fine.

June 27, 2009

Jered Weaver allowed three earned runs on four hits over six innings in Friday's 12-3 win at Arizona. He issued four walks with five strikeouts, and gave up two homers.

Our View:

It was not a strong outing for Weaver, but the Angels provided enough offensive support for him to collect his eighth win of the season. He has a 2.65 ERA, and should remain a solid hurler for fantasy owners.

June 20, 2009

Jered Weaver got knocked around by the Dodgers on Saturday as the Angels fell to the Dodgers 6-4. Weaver went 5.1 innings and allowed six runs on ten hits while walking three and striking out four.

Our View:

Jared was bested by his older brother tonight, but overall he is still a very good pitcher. You have to wonder if he was affected by facing Jeff tonight, but it was just one bad start so expect him to be solid for the rest of the season.

June 14, 2009

Jered Weaver was masterful on Sunday as the Angels beat the Padres 6-0. Weaver pitched a complete game shutout and allowed five hits while walking one and striking out five.

Our View:

Weaver has now won his last four games, and he is starting to look like a front-line fantasy pitcher. Anyone who has him needs to hold onto him, as it looks like he has it all figured out.

June 9, 2009

Jered Weaver enjoyed a solid outing in Tuesday's 4-3 win at Tampa Bay, as he only allowed two earned runs on five hits over six innings. He had four walks and six strikeouts.

Our View:

He has won three straight starts, and has allowed two or less earned runs in each of his last four outings. He continues to pitch like an ace for the Angels.

June 3, 2009

Jered Weaver had another sparkling outing in Wednesday's 8-1 win over the Blue Jays. He struck out 10 hitters and allowed just three hits and a run over seven innings of work. 72 of his 107 pitches went for strikes.

Our View:

Weaver has completed seven innings in seven of his last nine starts. He has allowed just eight runs in his last six starts. His 2.26 ERA and 63 strikeouts rank him as one of the better starting pitchers to date this season.

May 27, 2009

Jered Weaver was outstanding in the Angels' 3-1 win on Wednesday. Weaver went eight innings and allowed only one run on four hits while walking two and striking out eight.

Our View:

Excellent performance by Weaver tonight. He has the stuff to do this every night, and so far this season he has been one of the better pitchers in the Angels' rotation. He is a solid fantasy play in all leagues going forward.

May 23, 2009

Jered Weaver worked his way out of multiple jams in Friday night's 3-1 win over the Dodgers. The starter scattered eight hits and three walks, while only allowing one run in five innings. He struck out three.

Our View:

Weaver had gone the distance in two of his past three games, so five innings is a bit of a disappointment. However, tonight's outing showed that the young right-hander can keep his composure when things are not necessarily going his way. He could have let some of these innings blow up in his face, but he was able to keep it together and get big out after big out.

May 17, 2009

Jered Weaver threw all eight innings in Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Rangers. He struck out seven while allowing six hits and three walks in Texas.

Our View:

Weaver had been excellent in his two previous outings, and he looked pretty good again today. He pitched well enough for a win, but the Angels offense was unable to get anything going. Weaver's ERA inched up to 2.59 and his WHIP remains just 0.97 despite suffering his second loss of the season.

May 13, 2009

Jered Weaver was brilliant on Tuesday, but was robbed of a win. He went seven innings, allowing just one run on four hits and a walk, but did not factor in the decision as the Angels fell to the Red Sox 4-3.

Our View:

Weaver has been very good this season and has shined with the pressure on due to all the injuries suffered by the Angels' staff. His ERA is down to 2.45 and he is blossoming into the top of the rotation fantasy starter we knew he could be when he broke into the league.

May 7, 2009

Jered Weaver threw a complete game as the Angels beat Toronto 6-1 on Thursday. He allowed only one run on three hits to the AL's top offense. Weaver struck out eight in the game.

Our View:

Weaver has been exceptional in three games this season, but only average in three others. His only struggles have come on the road, but we expect the 26-year-old to clean that up going forward. He showed tonight why he has been previously projected as a staff ace.

May 1, 2009

Jered Weaver got hit around a bit on Friday as the Angels lost to the Yankees 10-9. He went six innings and allowed four runs on four hits while walking three and striking out two.

Our View:

Weaver only gave up four hits, but they resulted in four runs. He has been very effective so far this season and remains a very good pitching option in all leagues and formats.

April 26, 2009

Jered Weaver was sensational on Sunday, tossing seven scoreless innings in the Angels 8-0 win over the Mariners. He allowed just three hits and two walks and truck out five on the day.

Our View:

Weaver has been very good this season and looks much like the pitcher who took the AL by storm in 2006. Sundays' start lowered his ERA to 2.45 and he in now 2-1 on the season. He has been a big boost to a decimated Angels pitching staff this season.

April 10, 2009

Jered Weaver was brilliant on Friday shutting down a potent Red Sox lineup. He scattered four hits and two walks over 6.2 innings, didn't allow an earned run and struck out eight. He is now 1-0 on the season.

Our View:

Weaver had a disappointing campaign last year after bursting onto the scene in 2006, but he started with a bang this year. If he keeps this up and you grabbed him late in your draft you could have a gold mine on your hands.

March 25, 2009

Jered Weaver got the win but it is not what he was looking for after giving up seven hits, five earned runs, and three home runs in 4.1 innings in the Angels' 18-11 win over Colorado on Wednesday.

Our View:

There were concerns about his shoulder going into spring training and he has been anything but sharp as the spring goes along. Make sure you watch his next few starts to see if his performances improve.

March 15, 2009

Jered Weaver lasted just 2.1 innings against the A's on Sunday. He allowed six hits and three earned runs, while striking out three hitters.

Our View:

Weaver's gotten off to a shaky start and may be related to the shoulder that had been giving him problems earlier this spring. Keep an eye on his performances going forward. He should make a more extended outing in his next turn.

March 10, 2009

Jered Weaver made his first start of the spring Tuesday against the Indians. He threw two-thirds of an inning and allowed one run on four hits.

Our View:

Weaver began throwing from a mound just 11 days ago after experiencing soreness in his throwing shoulder prior to Cactus League play.

March 4, 2009

Jered Weaver (shoulder) threw a bullpen session on Wednesday, according to the Orange County Register. He will throw a few more times prior to throwing any spring training games. He is still on track to start on April 9.

Our View:

Weaver could be an above average starter, but it does not look like he'll be the ace that many thought he would be. Still, his 7.74 K/9 rate is nice and he should be able to rack up some wins as the No. 4 starter in the Angels' rotation.

February 19, 2009

Jered Weaver has had some arm issues in camp and said that he is behind on his throwing program, according to the LA Times.

Our View:

Weaver has the potential to be a top-25 fantasy pitcher this season as long as his arm aliments do not advance into something more serious.

February 19, 2009

Jered Weaver is yet to throw off a mound and has been limited to long-toss, progressing to 180 feet, according to the Orange County Register. Manager Mike Scioscia said, "This is something most pitchers go through every year. Some pitchers need a little more time to build up to what they need and Weave is one of those. There is no concern right now that he is not going to be ready. It is just stepping him up to where he needs to be. For some pitchers it is easier. Some pitchers have to work a little harder at it."

Our View:

Weaver is worth drafting as a top-25 fantasy pitcher, and he has potential to finish the season ranked much higher.
