It doesn’t take a genius to notice how awkward Hamel’s delivery is, or his bad timing.

You must have missed the constant nagging injuries and the offseason shoulder woes.

“Porcello reminds me a lot of Aaron Cook.”

Hmmm. You and Keith Law apparently.

How are Hamels’ mechanics so much worse than Lincecum’s? By the way, Hamels is not injured. He threw a two hitter in his last start, in case you’re scoring at home.

Don,

Look at this article here and the list in here.

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/writers/tom_verducci/04/07/yearafter.effect/index.html

Almost everyone, except Dana Eveland, are identical from last year if you measure pitcher performance by FIP, and practically none has hit the DL.

So, it would seem that the almost whole of 2009 is an exception to the Verducci rule. At which point it doesn’t remain a rule, really.
