Buster Olney

@Buster_ESPN


The Braves' Ian Anderson has added a slider to his fastball and changeup -- something that was needed -- and the coaching staff is encouraged by what they are seeing in his early spring work.

Except Ian has said he really hasn't added a slider.

Guess we'll just have to see as things play out who is telling the truth.

Buster wouldn't run w/it if there wasn't truth behind it, though.

Buster has proven to be very fast and loose with things lately.

Fair.

Like I said above, let's see how things play out. As with most things, the truth is somewhere in the middle more than likely.

SBD - Buster tells the truth

Rebuttal - No, not always

SBD- True, but like I said we will see

Oh frick off. I'm trying to be fair to both sides here.

I literally said in my first rebuttal that we'll probably have to wait and see and I ceded Broski's point about Buster but still said that we will have to wait and see who's telling the truth but that it probably lies somewhere in between as w/most things.

Steelers' usual flip-flopping BS aside, that tweet from Buster reeks of him reading the quote Ian gave a couple of days ago about kinda sorta working in a slider, Buster texting someone on the coaching staff if it was true and then Buster embellishing from there.

I'd be more excited from that tweet about Ian if I hadn't seen him in Gwinnett last year still throw two pitches and then literally say a couple days ago that he is still primarily fastball-changeup.

I didn't flip-flop.

I ceded to you on Buster but kept my original premise.

I can't fricking win w/you fricking people. Jesus tapdancing Christ.

Maybe if you actually posted twitter links to video that worked and didn't get fooled by a clearly fake new base comparison video.

Also, you totally flip flopped.
