Nice lost opportunity, Kennedy.

I'm not watching(work), but hopefully that's the case. Z gets much better movement(across the plate and sinking) when he's operating in the low 90's. If he's routinely higher than that he's likely sailing a bunch of fastballs that are straight as an arrow.

What the hell.

Get dirty and it's 1-0 right now.

The FOX gun has him at 91 most of the time, sometimes a little more and sometimes a little less.

Z doesn't look right to me. He doesn't look horrible but he's not the same.

I was going to agree, but he just humiliated Albert Pujols.

Why do we play like this against the Cubs? Why.

I'm the same way. Granted I don't get to see Z all that much, but he does look different this year - that said, whatever the change is (his are slot seems consistently lower than normal) it seems to be working pretty well against us.

Listening to Girardi -- now he's talking about Blanco shouldn't try to get a hit here because he's got a good-hitting pitcher behind him -- makes me wonder how people could be so high on the guy.

So Blanco drives one to the wall, and Girardi's first comment is how Duncan is an improving outfielder who gives effort. Ugh.
