    Translation is getting confused. He has indeed gone to his FB/SL, but he uses his split when he's ahead in the count. He HAS NOT totally abandoned it. There is no flex, just saying that he still uses it a good bit. Albeit not as reliant as he used to be. That is a good thing and NOT A FLEX:):)

    The last few innings. I was watching the game at work. He was using his splitter and slider to great effect early. I think when whoever that is said less, I think it was less that the first few innings when he did throw that splitter/slider combo more. I think his first 3 strikeouts were on...

    Good lord 50 you're preaching to me. The Braves emphasis on challenging players is really a blessing and a curse. I like for players to cook a little longer at each level so that they can adjust and see exactly where their projections take them. As for Carey, the kids got a good makeup. My...

    It's almost like Hurston realized that the tantalizing split/sink/whatever doesn't mean squat if you can't command your pitches. It's good to see him do this. If this development is real, the Braves are looking exponentially better at the top, while awaiting some good pitchers developing at...

    Lol..I will...there is video of his 9 K'S, but there are a few things noted for him. First his FB sits comfortably at 94. Sure he can get it higher but there's enough effort on the 94 and as of yet, it's enough for lower level hitters. His slider is the swing and miss pitch IMHO. He is thick in...

    How could you not love those numbers? LOL...Bourassa is yet another undrafted signee with the Braves having more success with those lately than more highly regarded drafted players. I've seen 2 games and to me he looks like he's always been the big kid on the team. Babyface and all (Bartolo on...

    The only thing I can say is that a lot of what I give is echoed in other circles, but I don't try to follow what "scouts" say. They miss just like everyone else. But I have fun talking to a few. A few of our prospects don't move me, but people are high on them. Sometimes I see it and other...

    It's almost like I wrote that scouting report. LOL. It's on point, but that slider is enough to make him an effective two pitch pitcher. Anywho.... My thoughts on a couple of players I've watched recently. (Maier today) EJ Exposito - You could mix him up with Espinoza and Tavarez in the way...
