    Also when you can't make your pitches with secondary stuff, they're going to sit on the 4seam that doesn't have blow by stuff anymore

    This does feel like batting practice. Time to work on a new strategy.

    trading for verlander last year was a massive mistake.

    coulda used two prospects for someone else.

    The velocity is actually there at 96-97... radio folks saying his breaking balls have no location.

    You don't make the playoffs at all without him last year.

    I have more confidence in a fatigued Blanco. We really shouldn't risk another JV to start another game. What do they even do after this game?
