[IslandBrave]

Waters is on some kind of hot streak.

Lead off double by Waters. Almost hit it out.

He is stinging the ball right now!

To think a few weeks ago Waters was below .250!

TOR candidate

 

[atl717]

Fried sucks. Poor command and average stuff. Should have sold high on him this off-season.

WOW! Kid has huge potential though if he can take that next step and hit consistently his stock would skyrocket.

Ian Anderson

7 ip, 2 r, 5 h, 3 bb, 5 so

99 pitches

In line for 1st win of the season.

7 IP and 2 runs is nice. 5 Ks and 3 BBs is less than ideal.

 

[Jay212033]

7 IP and 2 runs is nice. 5 Ks and 3 BBs is less than ideal.

The walls are more worrisome than the Ks with Anderson. He's a 10+ K per guy this year but walks way too many guys.

 

[Jay212033]

Should say "per 9" guy

Is that good??

The walls are more worrisome than the Ks with Anderson. He's a 10+ K per guy this year but walks way too many guys.

This start worries me more than others where he walked more.

His BB rate in this game is lower than his season rate. His K rate was well lower. This was also a fairly economical start (99 pitches in 7 IP I believe).

What I'm worried about is that he might have either taken a bit off his stuff to throw more in the zone or else tried to put more in the zone than normal. If that's the case, he doesn't miss nearly as many bats.

Essentially, starts like this make me worry he's racking up Ks by getting guys to chase balls. That will get harder to do as he advances.
