2014 Zach Britton Today

Not sure man. Not sure.

You know me, I worry more about talent then intangibles.

Those intangibles, they just are not, you know, tangible.

I prefer my variables tangible.

Most left handed sinkerballers have terrible splits. Zach doesn't seem to have that problem.

In his small sample size as a closer. Beltran and Donaldson liked that he was lefty.

Donaldson is a top five player in the league right now. I would have gone out of my way to avoid giving him the chance to beat us.

Folks that don't recognize he is a superstar deserve to get burned.

Your analysis is not very in depth. To say the least.

Very true.

He was nasty tonight. He shouldn't be available tomorrow after going four times in five days.

I'm sure we will see Big Game Hunter tomorrow... Yes. I'm already assuming a victory

A few sliders today.

On a side note, i think Hamilton's plate discipline is worse than Jone's.

Dominant with a strikeout. Fixed that for you!

It's really the WHIP that I care about, especially for a reliever. Last year JJ always seemed to have runners all over the basepaths. Zach has done an incredible time of keeping them off. The few times that he's put multiple guys on (seemed like some bad luck on those too) bad things happened. I think that's a general principle in baseball. Bad things happen late in games when the other team has multiple people on base.
