Things that he's improved on since then:
-Gets way more swinging strikes
-Throws first pitch strike a lot more often
-Less contact on pitches inside and outside the strikezone
They gave out some decent pieces, but mostly just acquired all of the contracts that nobody wanted because they can afford to pay it. It's quite the brilliant use of your resources.
David Price's game is striking guys out and not walking guys. Just like every elite pitcher in baseball. Are you saying you'd rather just concede Sunday's game rather than start the pitcher who gives us the best chance to win?
This is baseball and anything can happen, but with this offense I wouldn't rule us out against any pitcher. Duffy being a lefty severely increases our odds for this game beyond 50/50 IMO.
