Jacko, the key is he's throwing strikes. If a "patient hitter" wants to automatically go to a 0-2 count, I'm sure Morales wouldn't bebothered by it. It's not like he's getting hackers to swing at 3 straight pitches out of the zone.
Willhiscommand stick around? Probably not, but a patient team won't automatically have better production if he can pitch the way he has in his last two starts.
