javy going deep in every count

its like he doesn’t trust his stuff

by randy77 on Jun 28, 2008 4:10 PM CDT reply actions  

I agree...and I don't know why

he isn’t challenging anyone inside with the fastball and refuses to put his curve and changein the zone.

are you trying to use stats around here? what the fuck do you think this is? - MM

Well I expected a high scoring game with Javy's recent suckage

so no harm no foul if the bats do what they’re supposed to with Gallagher.

Javy is just getting racked

all line drives too. That’s all a function of getting behind in the count.

Javy is driving me nuts today.

Sometimes he gets so freakin’ tedious. How many times has he gotten ahead 0-2 or 1-2 and gone to a full count?

this is just too patient of an offense

usually he gets people to miss the fastball and chase the breaker, wasn’t happening today. Boone me baby
