Rex Hudler Posted February 29, 2004 Author Share Posted February 29, 2004 Rex thanks. If the kid has trouble throwing a breaking ball, they should just teach him to change speeds on a slider. There's really no reason to try and force a curveball into the arsenal. They ought to concentrate on having him repeat his delivery. Jim a slider falls under the definition of a breaking ball. I gathered he hasn't been able to throw either. Some guys can throw them, others just can't. I was always fortunate enough to be able to make the ball do pretty much what I wanted. But no matter how hard I tried to teach some guys, they just couldn't do it. I never could figure out why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox10 Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 well he basically started in low A after just a handfull of at bats in rookie ball after getting drafted. so...two years Low A and one high A. Could be in AA just turning 22.... Power is nice to have but it isn't a guarantee to the bigs. more then doubled his extra base hits..... I have a feeling......... great points i think we all have to remember that he was drafted right out of high school. I've seen spidale play once and i was very impressed i think he will suprise us all. thanks Rex for all the great input on this topic!
