When I looked up “irony” in the dictionary the other night, here is what I found….
Carlos Gomez (Chad Bradford Wannabe) wrote an article in THT a few days ago, comparing Philip Hughes’ mechanics this year to last year. In it, he suggested that his mechanics were better last year than this year and implied that that may be the reason for this poor performance this year (in his first ever start in the majors and his first few starts in the minors).
Ironically, Hughes pitches a 6 1/3 inning no-no in his very next start and looks brilliant. Is Carlos going to show us how his mechanics have changed again for the better? With all due respect to Carlos and all the other biomechanical experts, how about once, just once, they tell us something in advance about a bunch of players and then we see how it turns out, rather than explaining what has already happened? IOW, actually perform some “science.” That is the way science works, I am told. You postulate something and then you set up an experiment to support you hypothesis (or not).
