The pine tar story is taking off.

Pineda said it was dirt. Good enough for me.

Damn you would think mud on his hand would actually make it harder to pitch! Even more impressive now IMO.

Pictures from Pindedas first start vs Toronto...
quote:
Two veteran pitchers and one source close to the Red Sox told Yahoo! Sports that about 90 percent of major league pitchers use some form of spray-on sunscreen – almost always BullFrog brand – that when combined with powdered rosin gives them a far superior grip on the ball. …
… "I just don't get the difference between BullFrog and hitters using pine tar," the NL pitcher said. "No difference whatsoever. Pitcher needs better grip so he knows somewhat where it's going and doesn't hit the batter in the head.
"I've never heard of it affecting movement. Scuffs on the ball are the only thing that can do that."
Though the BullFrog concoction may not foster unnatural movement, the pitchers admitted that once they mastered its whims -- balls that are too sticky end up bouncing 5 feet in front of the plate, so it can take time to tame -- it unquestionably helped their stuff. The better grip a pitcher has, the more confident he is in unleashing his pitches. The longer a ball stays on his fingers, the better finish he gets on the pitch.

He's always been a crappy first month pitcher. I know he isn't the CC of old anymore, but I can't believe he sucks as bad as he did last season. He has to turn it around.

DON'T YOU RUIN MY PRECONCEIVED NOTIONS a-hole
He isn't horrible but he isn't his normal self by any stretch. Inconsistent I guess.
