Hawkfan Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 02:19 PM) PITCHf/x says Deduno threw 7 fastballs, but it's hard to tell because all of his fastballs always have sink or run (or both) to them. He doesn't really throw a straight 4-seamer. And a guy with Deduno's stuff is going to make a lot of guys look really bad. Nobody squared a ball up against him, and Eaton looked even worse. That's a guy I'd really like to see the Sox get if the Twins ever let him go. he had good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 09:17 AM) He's nasty. He's got the nice combination of having good stuff and having hitters terrified because nobody knows where it's going. Farmer was just raving about his forkball/splitter. He basically called the WP, without hitting on exactly which pitch it would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shago Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Apr 2, 2014 -> 06:05 PM) When you're intimidating opponents into your second game, it's good. Doesn't say much for what they think of Dunn, especially with a righty on the bump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Dustin Morse @Twins_morsecode 1h According to @EliasSports not once last year did a player get an 0-2 bunt hit. Leury Garcia did it in 11th inning in route to #MNTwins loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorStSox Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 10:55 AM) Not only did Eaton look horrible, but that balk pitch that didn't count was absolutely filthy. Deduno was throwing a lot of sliders but that pitch had a lot of hump to it. I was worried Eaton was going to hurt himself with the swing he threw at it. Didn't Stone say it was the best pitch he's seen all year? Why do the Twins have him rotting at the end of the bullpen? The Twins are just brutal. I know they have some good prospects, but man they suck bad. It doesn't help when your franchise player is a better Mark Grace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't help when your franchise player is a better Mark Grace. It makes absolutely no sense. His sinking stuff is like as nasty as Kevin Brown. He doesn't strike guys out now, but he definitely has the ability to do so. His GB/FB last year was 3 and he threw 60% ground balls. The dude is absolutely a ridiculously talented pitcher and the Twins instead are starting Kevin Correia and Mike Pelfrey. It's mind-boggling.

Leonard Zelig Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 3, 2014 -> 08:21 AM) Don't let facts get in the way of an Adam Dunn argument. Dunn haters don't like facts. The fact is that Dunn has a .722 OPS as a White Sox and that is why many people do not like him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's .781 the last two years and he's hit 75 homers over that time frame too. He's a good offensive player, especially against right handed pitchers.
