Is Drabek ready for prime time?

[10DeRozan10]

Shows you what some people know in the baseball circles, comments that his pitches were average. If you have good location, change of speeds with good movement, you will succeed.

Well, of course. But one of the questions raised has been how much movement is on Drabek's pitches. I didn't see today's game, but can someone tell me?

And it's just one game. There is such a thing as advance scouting at the major league level. But so far, so great!

Drabek has fantastic movement on his pitches.

Great 12-6 curve ball, and a very good cutter and two-seam as well. Didn't see much of the changeup.

The thing I like most about Drabek is that I don't think he has to be on his best to win the game, but when he is, he shows the making of an #1/2 starter.

I thought Drabek looked very good Saturday. He sure has come a long way since we saw him in the fall. You can tell the coaches have been working with him and he has worked hard himself. I'm feeling a lot better about him now and maybe he will stick if his next start is as good. The guy sure throws a lot of different pitches at different speeds and different movement! Wondered somtimes whether he was trying to do too much...but i'm sure he'll find his groove as to what he will stay with.
