Manny Acta

[Angrioter]

Emilio Guerrero

[eastcoastjaysfan]

He'd get it.

 

I mean...

 

Uh...

 

Curveball

 

Great curveball...

[jayswin11]

Sanchez's stuff looked "dirty" tonight.

[Atothe]

2 hard moving inside fastballs that were strikes to Pedrioa, FILTH!

[HERPDERP]

careful

 

last time we did a stud thread, we did it for Hutchison after his CG.

 

And look at where he is now..

[Angrioter]

The competitive walks are done.

 

3.5 walk rate and we could being in front of the next big deal guy lol

[BTS]

This won't end well.

[CJ-Freeway]

I'm eager to see a 30+ innings sample from the kid!

[Jimcanuck]

Saw some posts the other day " there are dumb GMs out there that still think Sanchez is a top prospect "

 

I say those are dumb posters

 

Sanchez is a special pitching talent - ace material (same thing said about McGowan some years ago, mind)

 

f*** would I ever rather have Syndergaard over Dickey tho

[Angrioter]

This won't end well.

 

Sanchez hater ^^^^

So everyone loves Sanchez again? What happens when he walks the ballpark his next outing?

People are definitely getting way ahead of themselves.

Don't pretend like you didn't like what you seen

[Jimcanuck]

go back to the rays board

Could be worse, at least on this board 3 out of every 5 posters (in a non-GDT thread) have some common sense.

[RIPEXPOS]

I know it was only two innings, but there's a chance these "control issues" in the minors might be due to him trying to learn/employ a cutter. He actually located his hard fastball pretty good, and he has the rare ability to control his curveball. Beauty.

[BTS]

go back to the rays board

 

Can't. Rays have no fans to talk to.

It's not like he wants Sanchez to fail, he probably loves the stuff just as much as the next guy, but we have to be realistic. We need a good sample before people start comparing Sanchez to Kershaw (yes that happened in the GDT).

[Caper]

This won't end well.

 

It will end well tonight.

Both his strikeouts were looking and he only induced a single ground ball. Let's not act like he just turned water into wine.

Yeah, but anybody can see plain as day that out of our young studs, Sanchez has the best stuff. Stroman has a better than average fastball but it's pretty straight. Stro has a good curveball but not quite on the same level as Sanchez. This guys curveball ranks up there with the best in either league. I'm not saying it IS the best, but it's not far off.

 

The kid just needs to harness that fastball. When you have a 96-99mph heater that ducks, dives and darts, it's not easy to find that release point on a consistent basis. I think that why he walks a lot of guys right now. When his fastball starts at the knees, it moves downward more than most guys changeups FFS. It's going to be a learning process for this guy. I'd really love for the Jays to make a smart move for a change and have a guy like Halladay come in and work with these young guys. After bouncing around a bit, Roy turned into a f***ing beast and his composure on that hill was always top notch.

 

From what I'm seeing, this guy has two above average pitches with fantastic movement. His ceiling is pretty much unlimited. What makes me laugh though is how you hear the kings of jaysland getting so sick and tired of the "trolls" who badmouth the team and the effort or lack thereof that they put out on the field. Yet I'm hearing some of these same guys jumping down this kids throat like he's some useless douch bag who walks too many hitters. IMO, you don't give up on guys like this so easy. They cast aside Alvarez and he's shown signs of brilliance on a otherwise weak team. And if you look at their pitches, they're fairly similar in their fastball movement, with Sanchez having the better and more polished secondary pitch. Alvarez has thrown a no hitter already and he's showing signs of being a front of the rotation pitcher. Yet people were hollering for the jays to get rid of him after a SINGLE season as just another prospect who wouldn't pan out. He's panning out alright, just in another uniform. Give Sanchez a year or two and I think we have a front of the rotation pitcher or possibly a closer with a nasty hook and a 100 mph fastball when he knows he just has to let it loose for a single inning.

WHAT? Stroman's breaking ball is at least as good as Sanchez's if not better. Troll better
