Then at the same token, called strikes should be looked upon as a positive also. The fact that people down play Sanchez's caught looking K's is equally ignorant, unless they think the location on those K's were just pure luck with no skill involved.
Meh, he is what he is, for years now. It's not like we're assessing a young late inning pen arm. Counting and using swings and misses on an established pitcher is a horrible way to watch a game, imo anyway. Total K's vs walks is obviously a different story.
Goins will put up an OPS north of .650 this year, wouldn't be surprised to see it creep over .700
Colabello will probably regress a bit, but will still put up good numbers.
Why the f*** does everyone think it will be a Goins / Barney combo if Tulo would ever go down prior to the return of Travis?
Goins SS / Burns 2B (Barney late inning defensive replacement).
Usually, pitchers with fastballs that are straighter than your hair, usually don't develop into a #2 or #3. Throw in the lack of command and the inability to handle adversity, you get the makings of a possible #5, a long man or AAA depth.
