That is one way to reduce the amount of hits on routine grounders to Isaak Pacheco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess not much if Mize or Manning is out very long. Faedo's 26, he's over 500IP NCAA + MiLB. If he does continue to handle AAA hitters, there doesn't seem much of anything to gain for him at AAA. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyMarsh Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 I didn't find any info on his velo but I did see that Faedo had 17 WHiffs in his start, apparently the slider was pretty nasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a guy who shoved the ball, he was in the Orioles bullpen in the late 60s and his name was Dick Hall, and of course we all referred to him as Dick All. He was a right-hander who pushed the ball out from his right shoulder. In our late teens in the late 60s, warming up before the game, half of the guys would be doing Luis Tiant and the other half would be doing Dick Hall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence, as an uncool kid I was using it ironically. Glad to see he pitched well. That would be a nice story.

RatkoVarda Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 (edited) Short 3HR; Clemens HR as everyone hit in 14-0 win Kreidler DNP; had 2 HBPs Tuesday, including one on his hand so hopefully no long term issue there and for WMI, Dylan Smith had is 1st stumble after 3 impressive outings, 4 IP 5H 2BB HBP 3K 5R Edited April 28, 2022 by RatkoVarda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imitated him so much that it became my natural pitching motion. When I pitched in Little League, I was pitching like him without even realizing it.

gehringer_2 Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 (edited) Wenceel Perez 5/2 and his 4th HR tonight. 1.069 OPS at WM. What's up with that? - he's fallen off all the prospect lists. Madden takes a loss despite giving up 0 ER in 5IP with only 3H 1 BB 4 K against 1 HR. Parker Meadows with 3BB for Erie. Hens: Wentz 4.2 IP, 2H 0R 2BB 4K. Short with a 1.015 OPS and we are watching Harold giving up defensive runs by the carton. Edited April 29, 2022 by gehringer_2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be noted, for all the Harold talk, that Kreidler is on the IL... hopefully nothing too serious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
