re: If Lange comes around this team might be pretty good

Announcer yesterday nailed it. He is flying open and his arm is dragging. All over the place but his misses to left handed batters is high and away. Don't know when thy flying open started but it is obvious.

Lange is trying to make the batter swing and miss on every, single pitch he throws. It would do him some good to get a ground out/fly out occasionally. It would help him to keep his pitch count down. Instead of trying to throw 94 mph on the black with every fastball, attempt a 91 mph fastball on the outer third of the plate. He might be amazed at how many quick outs he could get and find himself still in the ball game in the 8th inning.
