Colorado, closer to family.  His illness kinda woke me up to how important that can be.  Excited and sad at the same time!

I was stationed in Colorado Springs far too many years ago.  It's a beautiful area and great place to raise a family.

I don't think he's that slow, my guess is he was thinking too much about how he was going to slide -- paralysis by analysis. 

He was 14th in Sprint speed among Catchers last season, out of 85.  He had slightly above league average speed.

I like the Gibson slider so far.

Gibson is looking pretty sharp today.  45 pitches, 29 strikes so far. 

[mrbig1]

Ump has a big strike zone.

Granted its freezing and they are likely wearing layers but it looks like Adley put on some size.  Will be interesting to see if his spring speeds drops a little this year or remains steady.  
 

No one looks fast in 33 degree weather wearing multiple cold weather layers.

Shadow now extending right over the plate.  Going to get tougher to track the ball.

The sinker looks like it will be an effective pitch.
