[GalaxyTrigger82]

@Hooklineansinker i wouldnt consider him a bust just not worth the money the red sox paid for him. he did win 18 games

[Hooklineansinker]

this guys a fucking bust!

[alanmoc99]

[UMDred10]

@alanmoc99 actually his first pitch was against the mariners at fenway.

[tholc123]

@UMDred10 both of you dumbasses are wrong, he made made his debut against the royals in KC

[SplapMeDoooo]

was it a strike or a ball

[pollardboyz]

i love the way he steps back rather than to the side. its so much better because it helps you have a better forward momentum rather than the step to the side witch is wasted movement

[chippastyles]

still gotta hit your balance point genius...

[pollardboyz]

its kinda funny how this was almost a year ago and now youre commenting

[chippastyles]

u mad.

[SimpleStuff31]

@chippastyles no you dont, you just glide forward, stopping at the balance point doesnt do any good and hardly any mlb pitchers do it, they lift their leg up and start moving towards the plate never stopping at a balance point.

[chippastyles]

@SimpleStuff31 Maybe out of the strech, but out of the windup, they still hit their balance point....NOTE: You're saying "stopping" at the balance point, so maybe i made it seem like i meant stopping, which if so, then my bad. I'm not saying anyone "stops", but they have to have their balance point during their leg lift. That goes for both the side or back step type of windup

[SimpleStuff31]

@chippastyles when you say balance point do you mean the top of the leg lift. if so, in the majors they keep their hips moving, they dont really,"hit", a balance point, they sort of flow through it.

[chippastyles]

@SimpleStuff31 I think we are discussing semantics. I see what you're saying, and understand...I just don't think I'm being clear with my words. There is a point of balance that a pitcher goes thru in the windup during the leg lift. If there wasnt, they would fall over. If they lean too far forward, this typically causes the pitch to be high. So while it maybe fluid(which it should be), there is still a point of balance that they all "hit". Balance point is just a term that is used.

[SimpleStuff31]

@chippastyles so its kinda like walking, your always moving forward but are still balanced cause you dont fall over.
