I saw him pitch yesterday afternoon and I'm very impressed. The Rockies were able to push a run across while he was in but no one that faced him looked remotely comfortable at the plate. The fact that he doesn't have the greatest command probably helps him a bit as well as it must be a bit frightening knowing that a heater at over 100 MPH could be directed at your head!
I know people here take the mick out of American footballers for all the padding compared to rugby players, but compare baseball to cricket.
