Sunday in Surprise

Greinke's shelling has sent the alarmists a'hollerin'. Yawn.

I'm more anxious to know about Gobble's velocity. He was down 4-5 mph last year, which I think contributed greatly to this anemic strikeout totals. If he can get his fastball to 91-92, I think he can increase his strikeout totals back to 5/6 per 9, and with his control and plus curve, make him an effective pitcher. His outings have been mixed thus far. I'm looking forward to an on-the-ground assessment of his current stuff.
