Totte, I've been wondering how Gagne has been edited. Is he worse now because he hasn't really pitched in a while? His durability? What about his velocity? Plus I was wondering if anyone remembered how fast Gagne threw his change up before all the surgeries and injuries? Thanks.

I haven't looked at this ratings yet but I will. Thanks

League was a starter but he's a reliever now

Yeah I've changed that. You wrote that in one of your huge Blue Jays posts a couple of days ago :wink:

Totte,

I had a question on Andruw Jones' batting stance. It seems to me the adam dunn stance isn't working for him and I saw him in a game recently and he had a more level stance in which he could get the bat into the zone quicker. If you could check that out, I'd appreciate that.

Thanx,

Kobe4MVP.

What stance would you recommend?

What stance would you recommend?

It looks SIMILAR to...

1. "Vina" stance, but the feet are wider apart

2. "Magglio Ordonez" stance, but more crouched

3. "Pujols" stance, but no bat movement

4. Rentia, but no bat movement

So basically, it's a 1. wide feet stance 2. closed 3. hands up, no movement really 4. one hand release.

Check some of the multimedia on him, you'll see what I'm talking about:

Thanks buddy but I'm wondering what's wrong with the stance that's called Andruw Jones in the game? It must be called that for some reason...

Nothing wrong with it, honestly. But he's changed within the past year as instructed by Hank Aaron who told him that with his feet together, his stride would lengthen which took time away from his swing making him vulnerable to outside pitches like sliders. In a more crouched position, he creates better bat speed/control, level swing, and reaches full potential.

Jose Reyes © was promoted from West Tenn to Iowa. Randy Wells (SP) was also promoted to Iowa from West Tenn. Here's the rest of Iowa's roster...Williamson should be back with the big league team in around a week or so.

Jake Fox © was promoted from Daytona to West Tenn. Donnie Veal (SP), Jake Muyco (C, not in 6.5 update), Jonathon Mota (SS, not in 6.5 update), and Ed Campusano (LHRP, not in 6.5 update) were also promoted from Peoria (Low A) to West Tenn. There is no word on the demotions yet as the Midwest League has their All-Star break right now and the Southern League has just wrapped up their 1st half.

Valerio De Los Santos is also now on the Charlotte Knights.

hey i have a suggestion about Farnsworth of the Yanks...

in real life he only has a fastball and a slider...

maybe you could just delete the split and the changeup he has... and make the slider 11-5....

He may still have the other pitches but rarely throws them. Usually in short relief (or closing) they only throw 2-3 pitches anyway.

they aren't playing snow so there really ins't much point in keeping him when we could fill his roster spot with some well needed relief

I hate to see him go but as you said, we need that spot for a reliever.
