I do think it's noteworthy that they weren't able to develop a 2nd pitch for several of our pitchers who have plus fastballs (Floyd, Reyzelman, Gervaise). And, they were unable to fix Fontenot's shortcomings with his control. And, a few guys completely self destructed at different times during the year to never get it back (Dutton, Taylor, Money, Hasty) after being effective for a period.

In the macro sense, it was probably a good job (until the end). But, there's plenty of red flags to make you take a wait and see approach.

I seem to remember Kelly talking a lot about developing a changeup for his guys. We really didn't see a lot of that (although Floyd finally started to get a feel for it at the end).
