Reds Tidbits (2012 Season)

I keep hearing people say "Latos has great stuff." I haven't seen it. He has some velocity, but it's straight as an arrow with zero location. His curve is a plus pitch I guess, but once again no location. Other than that I can't think of a damn thing he throws that is good.

Seems to me like he's impatient or something. He has had a good idea with that inside pitch but when he's not getting it over or getting the call, he seems to give in and just throw it over the plate. His curveball is nice. His fastball has no movement. You are right about that.

He's going to have to learn to get the ball down and just deal with the results if he's going to stay in the rotation. He's a liability at the moment for sure.
