So, at least a good portion of them realize the meaning of 19/20 wins. Unfortunately, he did not get the win. When I read the news, my gut feeling was that it was going to be a 50/50 chance he would get the win because it was Halliday he was pitching against. Wang is the kind of deceiving pitcher. If I were to hit against him, I would never get my rhythm. You were definitely right. He pitched better last year. From my view, he is still learning. Adding a few more pitches will definitely helping him. And, I feel he should use sliders and 2-seams more, and use his sinker for the out pitch. Play-off will be the best time to see how good he really is since it will not be the right time to do experiment. Any way, I am not that big of fan to Wang, just feel like checking with him from time to time. He, and the Yankees, is always a good story. To me, watching Pedro, Rocket, Peavy, Webb, Sabathia, or Esckabar makes me more excited. Their pitches dances. Wang's, to me, is just confusing. Yes, the result is good, but just not entertaining. Let's grab a lunch together next week. Best regards, Tony |
