chitownsportsfan Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 It's a bit curious that De Aza didn't get the start, especially with Johnson on the mount, who is probably going to give up some gappers to left center. Oh well, Viciedo has started well and despite that strikeout I don't mind playing him against some RHP to see if he's turned a corner verse them. We should just DFA Dunn...

He has no chance of being successful in the majors with a fastball in the 89-90 range, as his command has always been his biggest question mark.

Hovering around 90 to start, that might be adequate for a 5th starter type, but it's not what any Sox fan wants or expects out of him. On the plus side, his breaking ball looks pretty good to start.

caulfield12 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Johnson's slider just doesn't look very good. To the naked eye, he actually seems to be telegraphing it just a little...his motion is a bit slower on that pitch. Of course we can't judge him until May comes around and he's not pitching in Colorado, but there's no way he's going to get away with pitching in the low 90's with his lack of command/confidence and secondary stuff. Let's just hope he's going through the typical dead arm period out of the spring and his better velocity comes back or he's going to be in a lot of trouble.
