If you watch him pitch he does great for four or five innings and then tries to sneak some balls by people because he can't put them away the way he used to and he gets hit hard. It's a mental thing for CC I think, although I could be way off base. <br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10804643650522801129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-16701146601483169972015-04-03T12:59:04.963-04:002015-04-03T12:59:04.963-04:00Hans is not TWASP.

Jeter became a passable glove (for a while) and very good hitter, Cano became a star on both sides of the game.<br /><br />2nd, With him on the 25 man, there would be controversy.<br /> Every day, some fans would be very upset with Drew hitting .150 while they could have someone play and possibly hit near .300 or so.<br /><br />Answer; get someone cheap so Refy can become a better glove playing everyday (in AAA) and play every day for many years in the Big Show. It is harder to improve one's game rotting on the bench. Remember, both Jeter and Cano came up and played.<br />Common Sense to me.Ken Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134936968221887101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-76454698457908513672015-04-03T10:12:38.658-04:002015-04-03T10:12:38.658-04:00And then you woke up from your dream... the dream ...And then you woke up from your dream... the dream about being handsome!Ken Hanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08248552174229519871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-70028810865616861702015-04-03T10:11:00.170-04:002015-04-03T10:11:00.170-04:00You might no more Levin.

Try this phrase on...Spring trai...Black Mulch Head. Try this phrase on...Spring training is now over. Let's re-vist this two times this year. First at all-star break or around the 81 game mark and the second is at the end of the year. I would bet you a sixer Eovaldi will have a losing record. The back of your baseball card doesn't lie and the kid has 15 wins in three years. <br /><br />I 'm not a math wiz but that's 5 wins a year in the National league facing 8 batters. Rothschild isn't the mad scientist you all make him out to be. If he could straighten anyone out I would've thought it to be CC a proven pitcher, yet after he lost his velocity Larry did nothing to change him into a pitcher.
