Yeah you are correct. I remember him pitching in a dome.

Not being snarky here.

Memory is a very chancy thing.

Bundy's two appearances were quite some time ago.

You obviously misremembered the opposition and you think he pitched in a dome when he obviously did not.

Can you trust your recollection of his velocity?

Brooks records pitch data for every pitch thrown in the majors. Velocity, location, movement the whole enchilada.

Frankly I am going to believe Brooks over a poster that remembered Bundy pitching against the Mariners in Safeco.

Go right ahead. When I saw him I still wasn't impressed. And I said so then.

Yes I can. Because I posted then I wasn't impressed with his velocity. And got called out then.

I remember watching Dylan in Ft Myers (in person) facing the heart of the Red Sox lineup and blowing them away. I was also part of the drool caravan that covered his summer of love. He does not look like that guy right now.

Is that based on actual in person observations or just what has been written here and his stats to date? Just asking, because a true in person observations would certainly make your observations more valid.

Just what I have seen of him on TV. Nothing more. I think by June we will have a much better read on him.

The dates are saying 7/12 and 9/12 correct?? Is that the month and year? Bundy was not in the majors until late June. Did he pitch in the Futures game that summer? I also remember Bundy pitching those two games and I thought his velocity was more in the low 90's. He did not pitch in SAFECO.

Good catch, yes they must have been recorded the futures game.

Sorry about that, I just saw the two data points and went to work.

Kinda embarrassing when I was getting on DH for not doing the work.

The point remains that he wasn't working in the upper 80's.

I think some folks have melded his two MLB appearances with how he looked the following spring.

The following spring, Dylan was not the same guy I had seen the year before.

And yet you are sure about his velocity from an appearance two and a half year ago?

Not ripping on you for the dome thing, I didn't recall where he pitched. Just saying memories over that length of time are very chancy things. I would certainly go with what was recorded at the time over what I remembered.

Why would they not have both of his major league games? Don't they have all that info?

Surprised they don't. They have so much info then I have to admit I just assumed that all data from when they started the program was recorded. With other players there are so many data points that if one was missing I wouldn't have noticed.

Ok, so we don't even know which one of the two games he pitched in they are referencing either?

      TT: Hyde's bullpen management is going to sink this team unless he changes

      By Fiver6565 · Posted

      Particularly impressed by Coulombe last night. Not only did he strike out the side, it was all against RH batters thanks to the pinch hitting they did. They looked pretty much helpless against him.

      He did a good job of pitching to Conforto without giving him a pitch to hit, unlike the Judge walkoff. In this case the tying run was on second with an open base, whereas Judge was the tying run at the plate, but the situations were similar and Bautista/Adley handled it much better.

      Yes last night really underscored the importance of even a 6 inning start. Makes BP management a lot easier!  And more effective.

      That’s the worst you got?  I’m in the car listening to the bullpen game, Perez in with a 2-run lead and a runner on.   “There’s a line drive that hits the top of the wall!   (Pause, during which I’m wondering where the runners are following this hit.) ….That’s Naylor’s 8th home run of the year and the score is tied at 5-5.”   WTF?  I literally started screaming in the car.   It’s aggravating enough that Perez gave up that homer, without Melanie misleading me into thinking he hadn’t.  It was so bad that I turned the game off at that point.

      Yeah, I hadn't seen those orange Giants jerseys before. Seems like orange should be an O's thing. I found it irksome as well.

      I agree it’s harder than it looks for sure. If nothing else Melanie proves that because as you’ve stated, in other aspects of the job she’s perfectly fine.    Kevin Brown, to me, has a great feel for the drama of each individual at bat, pitch, game when needed. Yes he has his goofy moments, but when the chips are down in a big spot, he treats the situation with the correct amount of gravitas, as well as excitement if it’s the Os doing something good. (Obvious exception is during the innings where they are doing a booth interview). His calls of big plays these last couple years are memorable, whether it’s a play at the plate, big HR, huge Mullins catch, big strikeout, etc. He also talks about each at bat pitch by pitch, speculating about what the pitcher is going to do, and leading the analyst to give his thoughts (particularly good paired with Ben for this - in fact a lot of Ben’s improvement is down to working with Kevin). He’s really good and I think maybe a little under appreciated here. There’s a reason he’s getting National work, even if it’s on lower profile games/sports for now   Melanie just sounds like she’s chatting with friends in her seat at the game, with the game itself secondary to whatever she’s talking about. Zero feel for the drama of a big moment. Zero feel for any moment that doesn’t involve Jim Palmer and pancakes.

      Just to pile on here, so grateful for that OH poster's tip to switch to the synchronized radio feed for audio alongside the video feed in the MLB.TV app! Refreshing to hear the radio PBP which I haven't experienced much since my transistor-radio youth.
