Re: 2007 AL Central -- Last Place CHW
Oh yeah, but asking other pitchers to emulate the best changeup in the game is pretty brutal [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Saying that changeups should all look like Santana's is unfair to everyone else who throws a pretty good changeup as their only pitch keeping them in the major leagues (Glavine and Moyer, specifically). Santana's changeup is a top five pitch in the game today, easily. The others that I would include are Jake Peavy's slider, Rich Hill's curve, and Mariano's cutter. Not sure on the other one. [/ QUOTE ] Ervin Santana's gopher ball? |

Tyner, HR. Not lying. And if anyone wants to see what a changeup SHOULD look like, Santana is putting on a clinic today. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, there is no way Tyner actually hit a home run. I have like 1600 ABs worth of futility on my side, so I won't even bother to look at the box score. I simply know that you are wrong and he did not actually take one deep. |

He just seems bad because his starting games at DH is just a perfect example of everything that is wrong with the team. As a 4th or 5th OF he does have some value as he plays decent/well in the field, is good on the bases and can hit righties decently. His line this year vs. righties: .303/.344/.395 |

Re: 2007 AL Central -- Last Place CHW
WTF, let Neshek pitch the whole 8th and we win in 9 innings and have Guerrier/Reyes left in case of extra innings.
