When is Doyle’s next start ?

[ramfandan]

He pitched May 2nd.. they usually pitch on 5-day rotation.
Doyle had good last outing going 4.1 innings ..5 strikeouts
I believe just 1 walk one run and a couple hits.
Anyone with more specifics what pitches he used?

[CNYFan]

When I watched the start before that he was very much concentrating on the secondary stuff. A slow breaking ball in particular.
It wasn't great but it made the no 1 more effective, and he had some success fooling hitters who were mostly sitting "dead red".

The reason I say the secondary stuff wasn't great was that I felt the delivery differed from the fastball delivery to the point where more advanced hitters would likely not be fooled.

Have to start somewhere though.

I saw 1 slider look like a slider...moved away from the LHB and low. The rest of the sliders missed in and just out of the 2nd quadrant, Upper Left side. He used a curve that ran inside on RH batters, and produced bad contact, usually a pop up. I liked the curve overall, I think it was inadvertently effective. It didn't do exactly what he wanted, but it did keep the RHB honest...it was too slow to be a cutter.

The best singular pitch was that 1 slider that slid...for a K. I think it was probably his only secondary offering that did what he wanted it to do.

5 K's in 4 1/3 IP is good...but not what he was doing at Tennessee...we need 7 or 8 K's in 5 IP....to get that at AA, he'll need the secondary pitches.

if they go in order from last week..... it's Lin today, Thompson Friday, Doyle Saturday.

Thanks, Duce for the analysis. So Doyle Sat. Will be monitoring.
Hoping you can critique that start for us too. Good job !
