1 out of 5 - that doesn't give me much confidence Rock

so you had at least one good start :P

 

[Rock Strongo]

so i have tanaka in my rotation...matter of time before his arm falls off, i dont thinkhe gets thru the ASB...team will put him under the knife at some point once they fall back in the standings.

i doubt anyone takes him in a trade...drop him? i could get a guy like wade miley in his place.

ERA of 7.00 thru 2 starts (1.56 WHIP)

velocity seems down, throws more offspeed stuff...not really effective.

 

[bksballer89]

Braves lol

 

[bksballer89]

Velocity isn't down that much. Not like he was some pitcher who used to hit 96 or 97. Last night his fastball was fine but off speed stuff was not. He will be fine

 

[Rock Strongo]

Braves lol

poor ox

i thought he sat around 95 last year with his fastball

i did read he didnt throw a tonthis spring, so he is maybe still stretching that arm out.

dirt and i seem to agree, he goes under the knife before the seasons over, maybe by the ASB.

 

[bksballer89]

I miss ox. Yeah he was around 94-95 but he's throwing more 2 seam fb this year. Not a big deal throwing 91 or 92 instead 94 or 95. Isn't a huge dropoff

 

[HammerDown]

The look on Jake Peavey's face when he gave up the grand slam to Nieves was priceless. What a punkass.

A few games in and I'm right back to be totally sick of Dick Enberg calling Padres games. He's incapable of pronouncing a Latin name. Musta said Nieves as NAY-e-vus a dozen times.

Tigers at Pitt today trying for first 7-0 start since their '85 team that began the season 35-5. This year's squad has outscored its opponents 47-16.
