Yes, yes, yes…Torre made some dumb moves in the game. Agreed. But what worries me is that Mariano has become Mortaliano. He looks like a batting practice pitcher.

Mr. “Automatic” where are you?

They keep saying “his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine, his velocity is fine.”

LOTS of pitchers have velocity. What made (makes?) Mo special was his control and movement of his pitches. If that’s gone, well……we’re toast.
