For some reason you've always had a nice touch for advanced linking and the pithy line to follow.
Have bounced over to this thread a few times to conveniently enjoy Diaz' velocity. That particular pitch, the more you see it, really does look like the Chapmanesque unhittable superfastball. Paxton's heat was tremendous, but didn't look impossible to hit. Diaz' did.
Funny - all the way up, Diaz got reported for his control. You'd think with that kind of thunder, you'd hear more about it. Camouflaged in the rotation, I guess, but wouldn't people know about it?
Guess DiPoto *did.*
