He has two pitches that are above average. I think it would be great if he would work both sides of the plate especially on the righties. I wonder if a splitter would be more effective than his change-up as his third pitch.Barryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05922015140899150083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29764383.post-55230218212699121502009-03-03T15:12:00.000-05:002009-03-03T15:12:00.000-05:00Come on, Pat.

If he continues to pitch at this pace will he get the nod at closer to start the year or no matter what does that go to Brandon Lyon? I agree Bonderman is so key. That being said I think with Bondermans health being an unknown. I think it is equally as important if not more so that Nate Robertson and or Willis steps up in a major way this maddog52https://www.blogger.com/profile/11049733361898347116noreply@blogger.com
