April 18, 20187 yr QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 18, 2018 -> 04:05 PM) Fulmer's stuff does not seem to generate a lot of swings and misses. That's kind of what I was thinking. He doesn't have an overpowering fastball, and his offspeed pitches aren't very deceptive. Which suggests to me he should have pinpoint control then, but that isn't there either. What am I missing?

When he has shown he can get to two strikes, his curve can do a lot of damage.
April 18, 20187 yr I had the A's being a surprise team this year before Puk went down, I think they're a pretty solid team.

The AL Central.....ehhh not so much. the mariners are looking really good early. if leake and felix are legit 110 ERA+ types this year and stay healthy their rotation isn't a weakness it's a strength. long way to go though.
April 18, 20187 yr Author TA looks like a completely different guy with RISP this year. He's so much more patient.

April 18, 20187 yr Good job Engel! Ok Moncada, let's blow this ballgame wide open! No strikeouts please
