    First time he gets hit hard, but right at Junior.

    I liked the first inning, but as pointed out by mission. He struggled with throwing strikes from the stretch. Big leaguers don't swing at much out of the zone.

    30 pitches....he cannot throw that straight and I do mean straight fastball up in the zone against the Indians...they will kill him.

    His fastball is gas, but it is as straight as an arrow. either throw it down, or way high like the Sizemore strikeout.

    He is a work in progress.

    There was a fastball or two that wasn't completely like that, but I think his problem is simply over throwing and that could be due to simply adrenaline.

    The Sizemore K was on a slider up in the zone. I think he does have control problems, but canthrow pitches past hitters. But we knew that before he came up.
