The announcers said he had given up 18 homeruns but 15 were Solo. That tells me that he attacks the Strike Zone with no one on base. That guy is an exceptional pitcher but he still gave up 18 homeruns, 15 Solo.

That is what you want in a pitcher. He pounds the strike zone, especially with no one on. He doesn’t worry about the possibility of a guy jacking one. If he spread 15 solos out over the course of this 50+ win season, and still ends up 13-0, give me 3 of those guys! No nibbling when ahead of a guy with no one on base like our staff did this year.

When I suggested he didn’t nibble, I wasn’t thinking about fishing, but you bring up an excellent point. Well done sir!

The most ESPN could dig up is that he REALLY likes to fish. Shocker. He has really had to battle his fishing addiction all these years to become an elite ballplayer.

My question is how is his arm still intact with Wes Johnson as his pitching coach?
