I own him this season, so this is the first I've watched him pitch with any interest. I remember him tearing up the lefty-heavy Phils' bats in San Fran's World Series run, but I guess after watching him through the spring, my question is...

How did he miss so many bats last year??

Is his fastball still cold? I haven't seen him over 91 yet. He has the long, slow, looping 3-quarter delivery that doesn't hide the ball much, and so far I've seen his slider go from good to landing well into the right-handed batters box during the same inning.

I'm not complaining about early results, but I am VERY happy he's my 3 and not a 1 or a 2.

Yes, I know he's only 22. Anybody else have any opinions on him, especially those who have watched him more?

Thanks.

If you want me to look at your team, post the team. Don't post a link to another site where the team is.
Have you given me all the info I need to judge your team? The number of teams in the league is a good start for the big overall questions.
Is your league H2H? Roto?
I don't know who's on your waivers. Don't just ask me who you should pick up. Give me names to choose from.
If you only have one team, post your team in your signature with the league parameters.
I don't know every single matchup for next week, so if you want me to choose a player for the following week and you think the matchups are important, tell me who they're facing.

Lol, honestly. His fb is a little over 1mph less than last years average, however it's not even may yet, and if recall he's been, not slow but he's eased his way into the season last year. Go onto the team page of Jon Lester's owner, then back to bumgarner, then Lester, then bumgarner....feels good now right?

:) Ha, I didn't mean at all that I wasn't psyched to roster him. I was just wondering if any west-coasters had seen any major differences between last year and this season's K production. and perhaps looking a little wistfully at Cain's start to the season (drafted in the same round after I took Madison).

Patience, young grasshopper...

did i use "wistfully" correctly?
