Quero's arm...how is it progressing?

[Trail]

Just wondering how its coming (for those who really watch these things).  I look at the box scores and see some SB's and some CS's...but I'm guessing that doesn't really tell the story.  How are pop-times, accuracy and velocity coming along?

It's not a perfect science because you're relying on a timely camera flip that didn't mess with anything, but I grabbed a few of them a couple weeks ago, and the flip looked very good from what I could tell, so they should be pretty accurate. Every time I've checked this year, they have been in the 1.85-2.05 range. Haven't seen anything higher than 2.05. He double-clutched one early in the season because he didn't have a grip so I wouldn't count that one.

It's not an elite arm like it once was, but I'd say it's moving back into the above-average category personally.

Thanks, Spencer.  It'll be interesting to see how that looks mid-season...whether the additional innings help or hurt....
