Maybe I'm just not remembering it right, but when he first came up I remember just being so impressed with him and his slider. Feels like they tried to turn him into less of a fastball/slider guy and more of a cutter guy and it's just been a big failure. No I think that's fair, I remember it had a lot of bend to it and looked impressive. I agree that, be it on his own or from the coaching staff, he has not been using it nearly enough, to the point that I now wonder if it's even in his arsenal anymore. I'll also totally cop to him just being 'that guy' for me, the one guy who personifies our collective years of frustration on the team. It just seems like he turns in such a stinker more often than his stats even bear out.
