What bothered me about that PA is that we either tried to get him to swing at an out of the zone fastball or Dylan missed 3 straight times with a fastball he was trying to paint.

He’s overthrowing everything. Making his velocity good but he’s hung some breaking pitches and missing glove side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjusttyped Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I don't think he's doing anything nefarious, but I wonder how Cease got the spin on his fastball back to where it was before the sticky stuff crackdown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen him go as low as 94 on some fastballs in his recent starts. He's pumping 98-99 consistently tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjusttyped Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I'm concerned teams may have figured something out with Tim's inability to pull the ball in the air. Why give him anything away when all he'll do on an inside pitch is hit it on the ground? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're just pitching him inside he's gotta maybe start thinking about inside-outing the ball more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southwest Sider Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Man I was really hoping that MVP would propel Abreu to another sterling season. 1.1 less fWAR in 161 more PA's. Tough year for the big guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
