Dick Allen Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 7, 2014 -> 08:51 PM) There's a big difference when your change is 10 MPH off the fastball. He used to throw 90-93 MPH consistently, a lot like Quintana does now. In fact, the MLB.com gun is reading his fastball at as low as 82, or not distinguishing between the change and fastball. He's a lot closer to Jim Parque than Mark Buehrle at this point. One thing's for sure, he definitely has to have pinpoint command to survive in the bigs with this kind of stuff. Or he's got to develop a knockout curveball in the mid 70's, which he's never really mastered. 2014 FB velocity 87.9 2014 CU velocity 79.6 Stop with the fiction.

Andy the Clown Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Danks is a piece of trash. I was pissed at the time when they gave him his extension -- felt that it should have gone to EJax. Still do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daggins Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ May 7, 2014 -> 07:50 PM) We dont have to all assume the people we're arguing against are taking wildly extreme viewpoints. Take this away and there is no SoxTalk. Wildly extreme viewpoints and overreacting are the glue that holds the gears of this society together.
