Like throw max velocity, ex-player

You made a great point Spanky, he's not pitching well because his arm is not loose

I wonder if he has been trying to back it off a bit to keep from messing up his finger and that has been contributing to the steady decline in effectiveness.

His velocity really hasn't changed. He might be using a different grip though.

Derp derp

 

Can you imagine if there were more runners on base with his 2 HR's? Regardless, Smoak's base running skills were not on display unfortunately for LGJ and Biggio.

Sanchez was at his best with his turbo sinker at 95-98. I haven’t seen that in 3 years. If the bullpen can recapture some of that he would be a fun reliever. Hes been very bad as a starter for years now.

If they do send Aaron down to the pen, which SP would take his spot??

 

Cause last time I checked we dont have anybody (worthy)

Well most SP aren't throwing max effort, as Abom said his velo's the same, he's just a failed starter, best to see what he has in the pen when he dials it up.

Sanchez is useless if he can't throw 98. Not sure he can even do that from the BP anymore with his busted up finger.

I take it you don't know what that means, good talk

No, you're really on to something. Sanchez just cant get his arm loose

Yeah even in 2016 as a starter, I think he would regularly hit 95-96 with the 2-seamer and it had lots of movement. Now he is more like 93-94, but it is just the movement is not there like it was so he can't get away with a lack of command like he used to.

Yeah I think so and that is affecting the movement on the 2-seamer - no longer the dynamic pitch it once was.

I don’t know if we should have expected a better return for Pillar. But so far that trade has really f***ing sucked
