I agree. The bottom line was good, 5 IP, 2 runs, but looking at his performance, he really was a pitch away from being a disaster. He was strictly FB, change. His change looks good though. He's not really overpowering at a consistent 92 mph, but his change has late movement. He looks to have a very solid arm.

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him."
Leo Tolstoy, 1897
