i'd assume it would be better in the bigs, because they replace the ball so often, but it makes it tough to grip. it slips.

Nope, but most of them are shattered.

I think I have four broken-not-shattered in there. When they face guys like Byrd and lefties who throw outside changeups, it’s hard for them to break them.

I was hoping for good 4th outfilder

and capable spot starter, but he has just looked overmatched lately…maybe he’s slumping, but whatever

by jeeves on Jul 2, 2008 8:20 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I agree.

For a little while he looked like he was gaining some semblance of pitch recognition. Now he’s just baffled by any pitch that isn’t a fastball down the middle.
