His numbers were atrocious….no maybes about it. His stuff was good but location was awful - Detroit was teeing off on him. Sure the guy has potential but he pitched poorly today.
Maybe, but you could see the potential in the first inning. He threw some good sliders and changeups along with a 96-98 mph fastball. His command was pretty bad after that though. I watched his first two innings.
I’m going to take 19 hits in 15 IP with a grain of salt.
Obviously it doesn’t look good on the stat page, but for all I know, the majority of those could’ve been weak contact that found holes. His BABIP was .378. Maybe you or someone that watched his outings can clarify.
I’m much more interested in his K/BB ratio and HRs, all of which were very solid.
