I think Labas was in desperate need of a week off to rest. I think he’ll surprise some people in the postseason if he gets the chance.

His other key is getting a generous ump.

One thing I’ve noticed in some of his recent starts (also noted on ESPN radio, but can’t remember who) he has been getting squeezed on the zone. He needs an ump that will give him the outside black or just a hair off to be successful. When he’s not getting that call, which has been the case of late, then he becomes a lot more limited since he can’t just overpower hitters.

He’s got to give the ump a reason not to squeeze him. Lately he hasn’t been able to spot up so he doesn’t get the benefit of the doubt on the corners of even when he hits them. You’re not going to get the corners when you’re struggling to find the zone. It’s fricked up but that’s what it is.
