    Dude, Pedro Martinez is such an iconic person. And this is coming from a life long Yankee from who’s from NY. Those Yankee vs. Red Sox games back in the early and mid 2000’s were LEGENDARY. You knew when Boston was coming to town and you knew which game Pedro was starting. There’s no greater feeling then being at old Yankee Stadium watching a Red Sox vs Yankees game and hearing the crowd boo the hell out of Pedro when his name is announced. The “Who’s Your Daddy?” chant still gives me chills whenever I think about it…

      DeGrom isnt gonna last much longer I dont think. The little nagging injuroes are popling up. Where theres smoke theres fire. Hes Kyle Hendricks body type throwing 12-14 mph harder.....and keeps ADDING year by year. Its not sustainable. He got pulled just last night after being pulled again 2 starts before that after having other inflammation problems early in the year. You get inflammation, subconsciously change mechanics, then inflame some other new area.....next after that is the full blowout. Even though their mechanics are wildly different I cant help but think of Tim Lincecum and hope DeGrom ends better.

    Pretty sure he’s going to say it depends on the hitters stance and what type of break he wants on a pitch. If you’re breaking in on the batter stand further away for the ball seems like it’s in the zone longer. If you’re breaking out stand in on him.
