4 losses his era is over 6 or something...
Consistency is key for him. Not only that, but if he truly was tipping his pitches, then hopefully they have that resolved.

I do like the fact that his last couple road games he has been good. He was flat out awful on the road before. As for tipping pitches, his shit is good enough(just like fausto or whatever the fuck his name is) to get away with it. Just pound the strike zone early in the count...that is all he needs to do.hoops23;1194654 wrote:7 wins his ERA is just over 3...

Nothing I have heard suggested he was tipping pitches...it is all about velocity and command. I think he was just tentative coming off his injury early last season. The guy just has to get his confidence back that he can throw hard.
As for Perez...there was speculation that he was so pumped after the final out, he swallowed some chew. I can identify with that!:laugh:

They said during the broadcast last week or so that they thought he was tipping his pitches. I think it was Carlos Barega who mentioned it and that they were working on it.
