  1. Gordon had a point, that was a gift. This sounds like an unsubstantiated baseballism. Any time you like a pitcher (ie someone pitching for the Yankees) you say "he's keeping the ball down", and any time you don't like a pitcher (anyone pitching for the Sox) you say "he's not keeping the ball down". It doesn't pass the smell test. He's using the whole strikezone, like any good pitcher should. Quality strikes aren't exclusive to the lower part of the zone. Up and in is quite a good location because it's tough to handle. Here's his location by pitch type..... http://brooksbaseball.net/pfx/location.php?xml=http://gd2.mlb.com/components/game/mlb/year_2009/month_04/day_11/gid_2009_04_11_nyamlb_kcamlb_1//pbp/pitchers/282332.xml&batterX=0&innings=yyyyyyyyy&sp_type=1&s_type=2 Can we let this baseballism die, please? Or at least, only apply it do pitchers that it makes a difference for, like sinkerballers and knuckleballers.
  2. Meet the new Coco, same as the old Coco.
  3. It was only close at 1B because Aviles has speed. That was hard enough to get through if it's in the hole.
  4. Way to play a bloop single into a triple.
  5. Bah, that was hit well but right at Random.
  6. Niemann is getting clocked in Baltimore. The O's with a 5 run 1st.
  7. Countdown to the "Is there something wrong with Papelbon?" post from Jacko, ..... 3.....2......
  8. Dude, that pitch, nobody is swinging at it. Let's scrap that one.
  9. Right out over the plate. Tek did his stupid high FB thing, and Torii's been around enough to know that was coming.
  10. Was that a slider? That had good depth.
  11. What is it the commisioner says, "A LA CUISINE!"? That's what it sounds like to me.
  12. Left field, Juan Rivera.........Jason Bay makes the catch. Welcome to the game, Kenny.
  13. Not only that, but his delivery was hilarious. He sounded like he was reading script in an audition for the opening monologue on The Sports Reporters.
  14. This team would go 0-19 to the Yankees every year if they acquired Iwamura, Cattalanotto, and Napoli.
  15. Yeah, it's like he's thinking, "I'm really fast, let me start running before I start my swing."
  16. Hey, what do you know, a hard hit ball and Figgins actually had to move to try and field it. About time.
  17. I wouldn't say that, it's always good for a giggle when they show Frodo standing up next to a human.
  18. So predictable, it didn't touch the wall.
  19. Reddick is 6-10 with 2 HR and 2 2B the last two games.
  20. Guy kills us. It's funny how it's the same ones every year, even when the pitchers change.
