But hey, good to see him in the All Star game instead of Jose Reyes :/ |
Darn did I make a lot of spelling mistakes.I must have been still asleep. Oh well, I am better off with spelling mistakes than blown saves
BTW the fact that he doesn't pitch to spots is also a problem like already mentioned. He wants to overpower everyone and he just can't do that!
And you're right.... he has had "problems" when he needs to be "tough" even before coming to the Mets when he was younger.
