    He went almost 80 last time out. It’s a reasonable progression.

    GTFO, he made his pitch.

    Far from sharp,but given the extended layoff making it out healthy is a win.

    Yes and then Espada bringing in Scott. This manager is not right. There has got to be a better alternative.

    In fairness, the ump gave him a ton of calls that shouldn't have been strikes, so it's less annoying that he completely screwed that last one up.

    Umpire union doesn't like the fact that it makes them look incompetent....and they know it's only a step towards the automatic strike zone which they very much oppose....they need humans to keep getting it wrong.

    That makes it worse, not better.

    Consistency is more important than "make up" calls.
