Inches away from where a straight pitch would go, I'd guess.


UP OR DOWN
I'm assuming 7 is farther down. But seriously, fuck if i know.

also it seems negative horizontals go in towards righties, positive in towards lefties.

perhaps i was wrong before. positive verticals are usually FBs that have backspin so it keeps them above where a straight pitch would be, giving a more 'rising' appearance. negative are sliders, curves change, that dive more than expected. so doc's cutter has more slightly cut into righties which is expected, and shit, i dont know what the vertical means. i guess cole's appears to rise more.

Eh, this "precautionary" MRI is just the Phillies devious plan to get one done before they give him the big extension.

Hmmm. I missed this Cole getting an MRI/skipping next start thing.

I am breathing into a paper bag right now.

Cole's skipped start was mentioned numerous times during regular updates on WIP last night. That's credibility!

Well, the Phillies website did push Oswalt up to Friday night, but with our second All-Star break over the past week, Hamels could easily just pitch on Saturday instead.
