What'd Jamie Foxx ever do to you?

Oh, that's where I've seen him before. That movie Stealth really blew.

Can anyone who, unlike me, actually watches the gamezzzzzz ™ tell me why Lackey has been so bad this season? No control? Velocity off? Feeling the effects of the pre-game bean burrito?

I feel like it's location and throwing too many fastballs. He doesn't have a FB he can blow by people, so if he doesn't mix it up enough, he can get hit really hard.

 

So far this game:

Crawford singled on a 4th straight cutter, down and outside. Not a bad pitch, but 4 straight cutters is probably pushing it, though I don't have a scouting report.

 

Zobrist singled on a cutter down the middle of the plate

 

Blalock singled on a CB down the middle

 

and Pena walked.

 

So right now its pretty much too many FB and bad location.

Curve, Changeup, Slider, that's what they're there for.

I hope Wakefield is warming up for a long relief stint.

 

What's that you say? He's in the rotation now? OK, then I hope Masterson is warming up for a long relief stint.

 

Crud, wrong year.

I loved Masterson too but he's not doing that well this season.

I hate when the UMP costs us an out' date=' it should be 1st and 2nd, 1 out.[/quote']

 

Don't complain about the umps, you'll get thrown out of watching the game;)

 

Quite a few sensitive umps this season. Stop sucking and you won't catch grief dammit.
