caulfield12 Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Have to get Viciedo going somehow. Seemed he was getting over the hump and now he's trending backwards again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 10, 2012 -> 03:27 AM) Have to get Viciedo going somehow. Seemed he was getting over the hump and now he's trending backwards again. Indians starting pitchers bad match-up for him, as most of them rely on their fastball it seems. I think facing a soft-tossing lefty is just what Viciedo needs to get going again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thxfrthmmrs Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I think we have been pretty good at developing bullpen arms the last few seasons. With that 97 mph heat, Nate Jones is starting to look eerily similar to Sergio Santos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 (edited) If Greg straightened out Jones' mechanics, he'd probably be throwing 98-101 regularly with Maddux-like control. Get Him to the Greek/USCF. Edited May 10, 2012 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 We do have some good young arms in the pen with some vets there to stabillize it. The youngsters at times can be a bit inconsistent but overall the pitching has been really strong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
