HaroldSouthside Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 That was a helluva slider by Lopez. All his stuff just rolled up to the plate the last couple years. That slider was tight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d rather that guy get hit in the head by a line drive than die in a car crash. Was a way of saying it sucks that a good guy like Basset got hit.

I don't know what's going on he's also throwing a wicked 95-96mph cutting fastball. at best most of his career it was flat and 93-94. Can't be sticky stuff I'd imagine.

There are good things that would be created by this move (more offense and less strikeouts).....however, protecting the pitcher is likely not one of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
