caulfield12 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Delayed steal? How does Cabrera steal 3rd there? What the heck is going on? Stewart just assumed he's not going anywhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) Axelrod throws harder than Stewart. Maybe he should just bring it down to the mid 80's and he'll be below the normal fastball hitting speed but a tick higher than BP. Gameday had that as an 84 MPH two-seam fastball. Is that even possible in the big leagues? Guess so. Maybe KW should go with all "command and control" pitchers who throw in the high 80's now.

Jake Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Stewart did the job there. For all the s***, he at least comes in and throws strikes. As a fan I can watch bad offense, but I can't stand watching a pitcher not throw strikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that Danks never really was an ace. He just got that label largely because of 2008 and Game 163, but he was never in Lester or Sabathia or CJ Wilson's neighborhood. He's an average #2 (obviously he's pitching worse than that this season) or a very good #3, but not really the textbook definition of an ace or stopper. Maybe the contract's in his head, just like Dunn in 2011 or AJ in prior years when he was thinking too much about his future with the Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More worried about Viciedo than Morel, who I've already given up on and just preferring to be surprised by but not expecting anything more than Chris Snopek (minus the marginal power but better defense) from now on. Took Bryce Harper 54 AB's to get his first homer. Hitting .236 now. Edited May 15, 2012 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
