Buehrle>Wood Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jul 11, 2015 -> 09:41 PM) 4 at 100 ? Did he throw that hard before his injury ? Touched? Yeah. To throw that 50% of pitches is a different story. But also all were nothing but fbs for a rehab start. Still impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptatc Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 QUOTE (ottawa_sox @ Jul 11, 2015 -> 08:42 PM) Perhaps this photo captures the beginning of the extended 'pose' he has previously featured. His foot may land yet before he begins his acceleration process. His weight is too far forward for that. If it is than his entire upper body is lagging behind.

If ptatc is concerned, I'm also concerned. Hoping for the best. Also, what would the pen look like when Jones returns? The locks... CL - Robertson SU - Jones SU - Duke MR - Putnam MR - Petricka Then there's Webb and Jennings. Even Danks if he continues to flounder and EJ and Drabek continue throwing well in AAA. My guess is Jennings would be the one gone if Danks comes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I don't think you count on Jones right away. If he works his way into an 8th inning guy, great. He hasn't pitched. Stsrt him out in some lowere leveredged situations other than the 8th and see how it goes. Some guys struggle when they come back. Some guys are great. Make him show you he's great.

Jake Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I always suspected his odd motion where he very quickly brings his arm up and then leaves it there made him less deceptive. For a guy who throws 100 with good movement, I always thought guys got surprisingly good swings on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His changeup is nasty IMO, but it's rarely a strike if batters don't swing at it. And I mean his fastball isn't exactly meat, it just always surprised me that people weren't really swinging at it like it was hard to hit. Luckily it always had a ton of run, too.
