Watched a little video and it looks like Perez has lost a few lbs.
Definitely pulling for Williams. I'm also unreasonably excited to see Casey Kelly pull a rabbit out of a hat tomorrow. My biggest concern with Williams is that he has yet to consistently control the movement on his sinker. Good late movement on that pitch + the changeup is the secret to his success, but he seems to hit periods where his two-seamer is almost moving too much laterally and he has no idea where it's going. I fear that it will be a tough road for him as a starter if he can't lock down a reliable third pitch when that two-seamer deserts him.
I am fan. Thought he was going to turn into a pumpkin this year.. but he still has the magic. Now that he is hitting mid 90s with movement.. I consider him a viable piece of the rotation until he shows other wise. Now he needs to have a good outing against a team not named Phollies.
I've always liked his stuff and bulldog mentality since he was called up. I think if he learns how to actually pitch he could be really good.
Forever Fredi
Is it just me, or does this team play with a different attitude now?
