    He's a finesse pitcher whose fastball is in the 90mph range.
    I was watching uwasawa in spring training. He delivered a lot of meatballs!

    He was also pretty awful in ST from what I remember. AAA depth at best.

    Thank You, one and all for a great off season analysis of the Red Sox team and its foibles, BUT now the Off Season is over and hopefully now we can comment on players in real games.
