I like Eduardo. I do. He seems like a nice kid and he oozes personality. But he's so very frustrating. Very, it just occurs to me, Daisuke like.
He seems to insist on doing all the work in an at bat. Seeking the glamor of a strike out, he can't tempt batters into swinging and getting themselves out. So he runs the count full and can't last deep into the game. A good strategy for the opposing team would be to just stand there for the first five pitches of the at bat. He throws you two strikes? No problem. He's going to follow it up with three pitches outside the strike zone. And then you'll either walk or he'll have to throw something worth swinging at.
It's frustrating because there's real talent there. Or, at least it seems like there's real talent there. Maybe this is it for him. This is who he is: a kid who could be good, if he'd just get over himself.
