Balta1701 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 I will say this...Cooper's got him throwing an awful lot of strikes. He's ahead of everyone. He just can't put them away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Look how much more effective the fastball is when he can throw a mean offspeed pitch beforehand. Â That was his best at bat since the one against Peralta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Aug 5, 2010 -> 12:35 AM) Rios needs to sit for a few...or at least tomorrow. Â I keep pointing this out, but he just seems disinterested. His defense hasn't been great during the 2nd half, and his base running has been awful for about 2 months now.

rafacosta Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 10:35 PM) Yeah, well he has increased his gb rate and it is paying dividends. He's going to give up some hits, but how many balls have been hit hard off him? He's made one huge mistake to Cabrera, but other than that, he's just throwing strikes and putting up zeroes. I'm sorry, but that is not bad.  ditto. bad defense behind him too. the umpires are making bad calls agst us in this game. i think Cabrera was out on that one.

Balta1701 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 By FAR the most impressive inning he's had, because he threw a couple effective offspeed pitches and located the fastball well. THAT was a dominant inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scenario Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 4, 2010 -> 07:32 PM) Really, I'm flat out unimpressed so far. He has a 96 mph fastball but it's been hit a few times and he's only really gotten a couple of pitches that have hurt people. There's very little sink or cut on his fastball. It's straight. The Slider's been very week. He's thrown less than 5 good ones. Cabrera got 2, Peralta got 1.  He's stepped up and gotten Cabrera a couple times, I'll grant him that...but every time he's come up there's been people on.   Keep in mind that Coop is probably working a very specific plan with Jackson.  Starting out throwing only 2 pitches... telling him "don't worry about whether guys get hits, we don't care... just throw strikes".  It's very similar to what they did with Thornton at first.  They want to establish his ability to throw strikes... period. And then build on that.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
