Texsox Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 :headshake This was the first time I saw him and I'm not that impressed. What I was hoping was a little confidence on the mound, but didn't see any. The Yankee announcers felt that Zero would have been cut during Spring raining if he didn't have a gauranteed contract.

Jordan4life_2007 Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 :headshake This was the first time I saw him and I'm not that impressed. What I was hoping was a little confidence on the mound, but didn't see any. The Yankee announcers felt that Zero would have been cut during Spring raining if he didn't have a gauranteed contract. I actually was impressed. He's got some good stuff. Obviously he was nervous. I mean c'mon. Your first major league gm at Yankee stadium? That would be tough for anybody. But all in all I like his stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 If we trade Wunsch, Mr. Zero will be here for a while yet. He still has to get comfortable at this level, hasn't pitched at home yet, I think he'll come around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I felt the same way, I actually feel better about Takatsu then I did before today, just from seeing him pitch, I think shingo will be just fine.

witesoxfan Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 Did anyone take note of his changeup(I think it was his changeup). The Yankees commentators were calling it a breaking ball, but I am pretty sure it was his changeup. Anyways, his fastball was about 85-88 or so, and his changeup was 65 or so. You wanna take about off-balance...holy s***. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSF Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 The home run was bad, but I think he settled down after that. The movement on some of those pitches were unreal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
