I suppose fatigue is just not being able to snap things off as when you were stronger. He just can't recover to the point of feeling strong and fresh. The slider is probably the pitch that puts the most stress on his arm. If he can throw the change effectively he can be effective too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would they try to sign a Semien or Story? I'm sure a lot people will react cynically to this, and I get it, but the Sox had the 4th highest payroll in baseball in '06. There is precedent for Jerry spending *after* the team had success. I don't think it's pie in the sky thinking to expect them to seriously go after one of those 2 players. Especially when Nightengale (fwiw) was linking them to Story at the trade deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He showed he had a good game plan and knows how to pitch. But if you are looking fpr signs of the fresh Rodon that guy is gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
