Jon Lester is just the latest example of how people just need to give young pitchers time to develop. And that's not just because of his no hitter, he's allowed 6 earned runs in his last 5 starts.

And about the Clay being trashed at celebratory parties, big deal. I think Paps had a few pops before his performance that made him a riverdancing icon, thats just what ballplayers do
