Guessing that with pitches 100+, you are basically guessing.

i get that...but when a guy cant throw strikes and you are slumping...you don't swing at the first pitch unless it is on a tee.

Maybe so. But he threw a lot of strikes in that inning.
But still I see what you're saying

                                also, I love that Joe Smith's era is under one and he hasn't allowed a run in like 7 years, but I don't get it...a lot of his pitches seem like they catch the meat of the plate.  That crazy arm angle must  be really deceptive.
