aboz56 Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 QUOTE(YASNY @ Jan 20, 2005 -> 09:23 PM) Can a AA hitter flirting with the Mendoza line differentiate between average stuff and dominating stuff? Good point, he's probably going to think any pitcher can outsmart him, especially if he's hitting that poorly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 It sounds to me that McCarthy is being made out like he is the next Greg Maddux. :headshake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullard Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Alright first off there was no one on St Louis' AA team named Cantu. Secondly, McCarthy did not sign for half a mil. Lastly, he has above average projection on his entire repetoire. His fastball is currently 88-92 but I project it to be in the 90-94 range when he fills out. He's a damn stick! His curve is MLB average in movement and command as is his changeup up. He also has great makeup and he indeed is a student of the game.

hi8is Posted January 21, 2005 Author Share Posted January 21, 2005 ive know cantu my entire life, hes a hard nosed talented ball player that CAN hit... however, he has had 5 count em, 5 surgerys (1 on his left shoulder and 4 on his right shoulder)... he's not a hitting machine but the guy knows what he is doing.... why not take it as him complamenting bmac instead of cantu sayin "i cant hit" because thats what it was intended as. im just tellin you all what i was told, dont hang the messenger.... bow to him and kiss his feet after giving him a nice foot massage.... on the other hand, i dont think id want any of you touching my feet...
