Balta1701 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Johnson struggling a bit here. Left a ball up in the first and a lefty drove it to right, RF had to go a long way to get it. 2 runners on here in the 2nd, getting a bit wild, finally seemed to refocus a bit after going 3-0 on the next guy, came back and struck him out. Hung a breaking ball and Guy hammered it foul, then struck out on next pitch. Topped out at 94, consistently at 92, but notably wild around the zone with the fastball and the curve ball. Announcers noticed how he's struggling with control both within and outside the zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Johnson really struggled with his command. Didn't show much in the way of a breaking ball. Good news is his velocity was up 2-3 mph from last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I wouldn't take too terribly much from it. I'm mostly encouraged because his fastball velocity was good. I do wonder if he's throwing a 2-seamer or cutter or something because he seemed to have a fastball that was 91-92 and one that was 93-95. The way it would go back and forth even in the same at-bat makes me think he's intentionally thowing it a little differently, kind of like Samardzija throwing 94.5 mph heaters and 91.5 mph cutters this year. His AAA numbers tell me he's been able to get that slider over the plate this year, otherwise he'd be walking more and being hit more.

Jake Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 What's the chance we just send Albers packing rather than call him up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Well I guess one Adam Dunn deserves one Nolan Sanburn. I expect Albers to be called up soon. If they didn't care about him, they just would have let him have his week off with Charlotte. Sent him to Birmingham presumably to get some work in.

I had one for a stress fracture in my foot, for a little while. In any case I'm surprised he's not on the DL if it is something that significant.
