Why do so many teams want this fireballer? Is it because they can harness this guy and make him a pitcher? Can the Mets make this guy a pitcher? He could not hold the Cubs down in the 5th and gave up a grand slam in his last pitch of the day as the Mets went down 11-4.
Parnell only struck out 2. Watching Parnell is enough to drive you to drink. Ramirez and Bradley had such good at bats against the rookie. They were fouling off pitches waiting for him to make a mistake and then they would just hit the ball hard. Parnell, who pitches 92-95 struck out only 2 Cubs. He gave up 9 hits . He even walked the opposing pitcher to led off an inning and then watched him score. New Batting helmet and all. I dont care what Parnell says about how he pitches because he just seem to be able to locate pitches or get a strike out when needed. The 1 thing I will give him credit for is he seemed to not shake off Schneider as much as he did in his last start.
Jake Fox waiting on a mistake slider and then clocked it for a grand slam. The end of his night and at the point the Mets could have packed up the bus.
