The fastball and changeup are good, but I think he could work on something more. He reminds me of Buehrle with how he pitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Quero makes it, great but Korey as he has been the first 2 months of the year is a good starter. sure no argument there, I'm just saying that Quero is the one most people consider having more upside Edited June 12 by joejoesox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold's Leg Lift Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Good lord the last two Sox innnigs have been over in a minute and a half. How about putting together a couple competitive AB's guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorStSox Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Once Thorpe can locate his FB consistently, he's going to freeze a ton of hitters with it. You'll see a lot backwards k's with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 No whiffs on the fastball so far. But a 41% whiff rate on the change up. Cutter and slider sit in the 20s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
