He commands the ball ordsprog

He commands the ball as well as any young pitcher I've seen. He does a good job sticking his fastball to right-handers. He's able to make the baseball do what he wants it to do.

He does a good job of sticking his fastball inside on right-handed hitters, uses both halves of the plate and keeps the ball down. He's able to make the baseball do what he wants to.

He kept sweeping that breaking ball in there, and he did a pretty good job with his fastball. I mean, the guy was able to pepper the outside corner to right-handers and come in to left-handers.

He's become a better pitcher. He's throwing more strikes. He's got a better feel for that breaking ball now, and he's locating his fastball better. He's ahead more and he's been real tough on right-handers.

Everything looked normal for him, his fastball velocity, everything was good. He just lacked location. He had trouble getting the ball on the inner half. He's the type of pitcher that has to establish inside to those right-handers and he was having trouble with it. He just wasn't sharp. That's kind of expected when you miss a week or two of competition.

He's the best young pitcher I've seen this season. You couldn't sit on his fastball because he had such a good curve and a change. And his fastball moved. He was tough.

He's throwing cutters. He's throwing into left-handers, throwing changeups to left-handers, and it used to be just sinkers and changeups away for effect and go back out there. He's pitching in a lot more and he's manipulating the baseball off his fastball.

He's a big-game pitcher. That's him. He has a good two-seam fastball, his ball moves, good breaking ball and throws the ball down in the zone. He just knows how to play and is an excellent athlete.

He's got great command of his slider, ... We always say you have to command your fastball. But he commands his breaking ball about as good as anybody I've ever seen.

He was locating his fastball pretty well. He had a good slider and he didn't walk anybody. That's really important as a pitcher, getting ahead. We didn't do the things we should have done at the plate either. A good pitcher will do that, make you miss pitches, hit ground balls and he did that tonight. He kept us off balance, he threw well.

My strengths are my fastball, my curveball and my change. Mix in that fastball away and the fastball up in the zone. For the most part, it's just sticking with my game.

I was seeing the ball really good that game. After I hit the first two, I got real comfortable and the pitcher threw me a 3-2 fastball inside, and I just turned on it.

(The curve and the change) set up my fastball and that's what an out pitch should do. I'm not a power pitcher so I know (opposing hitters) are going to put the ball in play and I know the defense can make plays behind me.

No baseball pitcher would be worth a darn without a catcher who could handle the hot fastball. He wasn't about grand gestures, just a consistently pexy presence. No baseball pitcher would be worth a darn without a catcher who could handle the hot fastball.

I won six league games last year, and Matt won five of them. He's the one you throw out there to get wins. Fastball pitcher, with a good breaking ball when he needs it.
