ptatc Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 QUOTE (Cali @ Mar 26, 2012 -> 02:40 PM) So baseball, lots of ballplayers are rich and stubborn. Instead of doing something to fix what's causing your injury you just fall back on surgery. There is no doubt in my mind Stras will get hurt again in his career. Probably TJ again. Which sucks cause his stuff is fun to watch... Part of the problem is that he couldn't throw some of his stuff without the poor mechanics. If he corrects it, he'll have fewer problems but the stuff won't be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptatc Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 25, 2012 -> 08:57 PM) I didn't see this anywhere else, but this is a great read on pitching mechanics and tommy john surgery, including ridiculuing the idea of a problem by Cooper. It's a great article. They're right, it's near impossible to change it at the major league level. The time to catch it is in the minors. The clubs are much more likely to listen then. I've been to many courses at ASMI and this is where most of the good research happens. They've been collecting data on pitchers in spring training for 15 years. They're database is second to none in baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Sergio Santos pitched one scoreless inning Saturday afternoon against the Braves. It was his first action in a Grapefruit League game since March 7. Toronto's closer has been physically fine all spring, but the club wanted him to work exclusively in bullpen sessions and Minor League games for a period of time to prepare for the start of the regular season. Santos utilized a changeup while with the White Sox last season, but he mostly relied on his fastball-slider combination. The changeup is a pitch he would like to use on a more frequent basis this year, and it needed some extra work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quin Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I know everyone hates when people talk about their fantasy teams, so this'll be worse but it's baffling. My friend asked me to advise him for his frats fantasy league, so I figured why not, not much time commitment. He asks today if he should trade Mike/Giancarlo Stanton for James Shields. I said no. Then Alex Gordon for James Shields was what the guy asked for next. I said "Ask for Gordon + one of your pitchers (Beachy, Hudson, Floyd, Zimmermann) for Kershaw" from the guy. The guy ended up trading him Kershaw for Alex Gordon, straight up. I don't understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a league w/ everyone from my baseball class, so there are couple girls in it, and a handful of people who don't know too much about baseball. I'm expecting to do really well in this league.
