mac9001 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Strikes out the side in the 6th and his fastball was around 88 on the gun. But that curve ball was just untouchable today. He threw a couple decent change ups that inning too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 I think Hansen, Gio and Kopech have combined for approximately 18000000 strike outs the last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 QUOTE (raBBit @ Jun 6, 2017 -> 01:41 AM) Thanks fathom I appreciate that. Callis is good at what he does. How much is he being paid to be Kendall's agent? He loves the guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that curve ball was just untouchable today. He threw a couple decent change ups that inning too. Some guys on the board have said the Charlotte gun is always slow, so that's probably closer to 91-92. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was 92-94 earlier in the game, looks like he may have lost a little on the fastball but I don't remember seeing a single decent swing at any of his curve balls. Most hitters looked completely over matched with feeble attempts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thxfrthmmrs Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 A much needed big night from Giolito, especially after the big league pitchers got absolutely trashed last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beautox Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 hell of a start by Giolito, I stand firmly on the take a step back from the ledge camp. Tall pitchers let alone ones that are being completely rebuilt often take time and Floyd and Halladay are recent examples of this. Giolito's last 5 starts 28IP 2.57 ERA 1.14 WHIP 8.36 K/9 Guerrero has been quietly turning it around once he got out of April. A future staff of Giolito Rodon Kopech Guerrero Hansen with Burdi, Fulmer & Lopez shutting it down out of the pen is something to dream on.

beautox Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 5, 2017 -> 11:46 PM) You're forgetting Dunning this system needs more left handed pitching. Outside of Guerrero; Purke, Clark and Flores are the only of note to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 6, 2017 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Just looking at last year's numbers with Washington (for Giolito): His fastball (overall) average was 93.4 (most of his FB's were two seamers rather than four) 93.3 average for two-seamer, 94.8 for four-seamer 85 MPH slider 80 MPH curveball (13.4 difference off FB) 83.5 MPH change-up If we throw out the 96-98 MPH "max velocity" hype and concentrate on achieving a consistent 93-95 (location/movement), that's a realistic number/expectation.
