Everything works off his sinker. If he can't locate it he can't set up his other pitches. He wasn't locating well that game.

He made the Yankees look silly last night. They didn't have a clue what he was going to throw and where.

Man I didnt even think about Chris Basitt! The guy was a nightmare when he was dialed in making the best hitters look like kids!
