Hopefully that will come back sooner rather than later. Not too worried about his velocity though. He's till has plenty to get ML hitters out. Plus it will tick up with more reps. Command is the big thing.Command is last thing to come after TJ. Sandy’s sinker needs to be 98/99 not 95/96 like tonight. I think with a guy like Sandy I’m guessing Bendix has a lighter touch with his they approach

I think with a guy like Sandy I’m guessing Bendix has a lighter touch with his they approachLooking at his pitch mix it’s similar this year to 2022/2023. Most notable difference is more curveballs than ever before
April 30, 20251 yr Stealing at will on him and Aug lol. Pitching not giving this team a chance lately
April 30, 20251 yr Just now, Rydawg said:Pull him already FFS. For his sake more than anything, honestly .Need put him on 10 day IL. I bet this is the lowest velo his sinker has ever been in a game avg
April 30, 20251 yr Just now, TaiwanMarlins said:At least no Sandy trade.Really? That's your take on this? LOLI'd honestly prefer to trade a good Sandy than keep a bad Sandy. A bad Sandy is good for no one.Plus, he's a good guy. I'd want him to do well wherever he's pitching.
April 30, 20251 yr Just now, pollythewog said:They need shut Sandy down for 10-15 days. He ain’t rightNot sure how that helps. I guess he can work on his mechanics in rehab starts. We aren't winning anything this season, anyway. I'd give him a couple more starts to see if he can work through this before going the DL route.
April 30, 20251 yr Need to remember dix intention is too lose 100 this year for a draft pick. Success this year developing milb guys and seeing what that got in mlb if anything, and high draft pick

So yes we are going to punt this year and next. But we can lose 100 games trying as well
