QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 24, 2011 -> 02:02 PM)
Jackson has no out pitch but had the best k/9 of anyone on the Sox staff.

 

I guess we have really high expectations.

His slider is 87-90 mph and his fastball is 94-96 mph. There is not enough velocity difference between his fastball and slider to consistently get swings and misses. Instead the hitters are out in front of the pitch and they are getting a piece of the slider. I've been thinking the whole season that if he could take enough off of his slider to get it in the 84-86 mph range then he would rack up the Ks.
