Tork's OBP over the last 15 games is 350. He still not going anywhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan and Bobby Scales mentioned it in the previous AB, but he let a couple of really nice looking pitches go by, only to strike out. Same thing this last AB.... one good looking fastball early in the count, ends up popping out on the fastball in on his hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But tonight not withstanding, he's holding his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt.... there may be a whole-team approach about working counts / not swinging early (Cody talked about on his pod today), but man it's frustrating to see him let center-cut 93 mph fastballs go on by.

gehringer_2 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 discussion about making a pitchers face batters from both sides to keep them from getting too comfortable is interesting. But I would think it had to depend at least a little on the pitcher's repertoire. I wouldn't think it would matter much to a guy like Skubal who is going to throw FBs and changes to the batters on either boxe, as compared to a guy that has to switch from throwing sliders to throwing changes when the batter is on the other side.

Hard to miss wasn't it? FWIW, I stopped wearing one 30 yrs ago after an wrist injury and never put it back on. A phone in my pocket puts the time close enough not to bother carrying around a lump on my wrist. Edited April 23 by gehringer_2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
