Nevertheless, you've got to try something else do you? All he could do was hang it over the middle, served no purpose, it's crazy to try the same thing and expect different results.
Here's what I didn't get Boyd said he didn't have the feel for his change up last night. After giving up 2 HR's on that pitch why continue to throw it?
The outcome of the game is immaterial to me, of course, if given a choice, I'd pick the Cubs winning. Nevertheless, for f***k's sake be competitive and not piss down your collective legs again tonight Cubs.
I've little more faith in Brown as a possibility because he's not coming back from multiple elbow surgeries. However, as you pointed out, no seems to jack sh*t about how to deal with his injury.
When you consider Horton' extensive injury history coupled with this being his second Tommy John it's not that far of a reach. Steele coming of a second Tommy John, experienced some set backs with noticeable drop in velocity? Don't think that much of a reach.
For the pitching scientists, while King was very good, it did appear he hung a number of breaking balls the Cubs simply missed on. Is this true? Maybe, unlike Boyd, he did hang a number of pitches but, the weren't over the middle.
