Sorry dude....I misread...my bad. Even Hawk, who I dislike, consistently says that most players sit on fastballs because offspeed pitches are so tough to hit, especially now. Therefore why a lot of these guys, especially Sox, take a 92-96 mph fastball right down the middle is mind boggling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Should they take him out? Only 83 pitches. That ball was smoked but he prolly should stay in til 105 pitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually at 83 I would say leave him in but two things working against him. 1. He was starting to look tired 2. Top of the lineup seeing him again.

At the very least, pull him after leadoff hit when velocity was down and he left an offspeed pitch way up in the zone.
