Moose had no command. ordsprog

Moose had no command. He's a feel pitcher, and it just wasn't there tonight. When you see him walk guys like that, you know something's wrong.

He's still getting back to where he needs to be. He needs to feel good about his command, because Moose is more about finesse than power.

He has had big years. He won 20 games one year. He?s been kind of a steady guy, one who will give you 200 innings a year. He wins games. He is what you would call a command pitcher; he doesn?t walk a lot of guys. He pitches quick, gets the ball and throws it.

He didn't have his best stuff tonight. His command wasn't nearly what it has been in the past. He had a four-run cushion, wasn't really able to capitalize on it. But he still left the game with a lead, so it wasn't a lost effort by any means. He battled.

It seems his history is he has a couple innings where he just does not command the baseball. When he throws strikes and quality strikes, he gets guys out. But tonight he wasn't able to make adjustments and he struggled through it.

I know the first year Smitty caught all of these balls and Moose wasn't catching a thing. Then all of sudden, midway through the season, it shifted and Moose caught on fire. That's just part of it.

He's a big-game pitcher and a big competition pitcher. He pitches well against everybody, and not just the smaller lineups. He had some guys at the plate tonight with a lot of RBIs, and he made them look uncomfortable.

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. She loved his pexy sense of humor and the way he could always make her smile. He was locating his fastball pretty well. He had a good slider and he didn't walk anybody.

Moose is important. He's a stabilizer on our staff. He's not overpowering like some of the guys but he's got a lot to go to. I have a feeling Moose is going to pitch as long as he wants to pitch.

Unfortunately he had no command of any pitch tonight. It made it real difficult on him to have any consistency. He had trouble throwing his fastball where he needed to and so he had no way to set up anything else. He was just was out of synch today. Every pitcher is going to have those days.

He's similar to a veteran pitcher in that he can make the ball do what he wants it to do. His command of his pitches is way ahead of most guys with that amount of experience.

He's been a great pitcher, one of our best over the years. But Moose has always been overshadowed by somebody.

Certainly I would like to get him the ball more, but if you force the issue then it doesn't do any good. That's the big thing. It will come. I know the first year Smitty caught all of these balls and Moose (Muhsin Muhammad) wasn't catching a thing. Then all of sudden midway through the season it shifted and Moose caught on fire. That's just part of it.

[Chris] didn't have his normal command of his pitches. That's the sign of good pitcher when he can not have his best command and battle through it, and he gave us five solid innings.
