Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

Nolasco

The Marlins have a young and talented pitching rotation that is more than capable of taking us to the playoffs. But this article is about Ricky Nolasco and all the "ifs" surrounding is capabilities. Last year he had a decent year with a shaking start and a great finish. His composure can be shaky at time, but when he is on his game no one can touch his fastball. After seeing him in spring training I couldn't help but realize that he has pitched spectacular. Ricky is locating is pitches correctly and his breaking ball has improved. I would not doubt is Ricky Nolasco wins the Cy Young Award based upon on his performance in spring training.

Cy Young's a bit much.

I mean, he wasn’t even on a Cy Young pace late last year. Not close, really.

But I think he’s going to be a strong no. 2 starter, no question.

Bass is a kind of fish.

His fastball can be touched

It’s his breaking stuff and his control that make him so good.

It’s feasible for him to be a Cy Young candidate if he goes out of his mind good, but it’s unlikely. I like to think of him as our second ace, 1b).
