Right.
If you've ever experienced high level competition or practiced a strict discipline of any kind, being told to work on part of your game or craft after what you considered to be a milestone success, it can mess with you a little. In the case of baseball, he probably got sloppy due to over-confidence, but even AA hitters know what they're doing and can take advantage of mistakes etc. Getting sent down to work on secondary pitches is still getting sent down. What he needs to improve are innings at an appropriate level of competition. Double A clearly ain't it. 91 pitches through 6.1 innings of shut out ball at the major league level means you're clearly playing above the heads of your class-AA mates. His AA seasoning should be over.

Re: 5/20 vs. Kansas City Royals
... right. I don't think that ever had anything to do with the point. I don't know if there is a point. Masterson is good, how bout that?
EDIT - gameday comes back to life in time for Pap to be a beast.

Re: 5/20 vs. Kansas City Royals
He's not a pussy.
That doesn't stop a lot of people from claiming that one bump after solid performance, is due to the guy being psychologically damaged.
Hansen gets hit hard? He's ruined.
Meredith struggles at AAA after giving up a grandslam in May? Ruined.
Mariano Rivera coming in with a four run lead? Ruined.
Maybe it's something else? Like BABIP, or being told to work on his mechanics? Can't be, he's a pussy.

Re: 5/20 vs. Kansas City Royals
Is there a reason Pedroia seems to be swinging at everything this year?

Re: 5/20 vs. Kansas City Royals
For some reason - the offense is under the impression that they need to get out to the field so someone can have a no-hitter.

My observation is that opposing pitchers are throwing strikes, knowing that his power his lacking. |
