At least Chuck Haegar looked good tonight. His eighth inning had to be a nice confidence booster.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jul 17 2007, 09:54 PM)  I don't think Day realizes that he has an above average fastball. He's in love with his slider. Yeah, the only way that slider is effective is if the hitters think a fastball is coming. The fastball has to be his primary pitch in order for them to fear the slider. If they think the slider is coming, they will just take it for a strike and get 2-0/3-1 and look for the fastball instead. |

Yeah, I thought Soxtalk was fixed. Two days should have been enough to configure these problems.
All I have to say is this -- WSI doesn't have these concerns.

Floyd pitched 8 innings for Charlotte today, giving up 2 runs on 3 hits while striking out 10 and walking 2. He got the ND today, mainly in part from no help from the dynamic duo up front, Podsednik and Erstad. Combined, they went 1-10 with 3 strike outs and leaving 3 runners on. Sweeney cooled down by going 0-4 with a BB but Richar got a couple more hits today.

Anyone else think part of the bullpen's problem this year is that there is really no variation between what the guys look like? They are all mostly the same build and height, and they all are pretty much the same type of pitcher. I think with guys like Haeger and Wasserman who bring completely different looks and arm angles, they could change the look of the pen a lot. Thoughts?
