He just sits there until it's too late. Then, fatboy throws one that is straight, not hard enough, and in the wrong place. Season over. Same goes for your boy Kershaw. He's had 2 years to get this guy's command worked on, and the guy goes out n' has zero command against the Phils. THEY NEED A NEW PITCHING COACH. This is a teaching/discipline problem. Not a talent problem. This piece of sht junk pitcher shouldn't be relied on to teach anything.

Kersahw was simply tired after throwing more innings than he had ever thrown in a season. And while you are correct in that he needs to work on his command and keep the pitch count lower, if he can improve in that area he can be the most dominating pitcher in baseball, period. As for Broxton show me a guy like him that didnt have command issues now and then. The list of closers better than him is short. Like one guy short.
