Oh, I get it.
I’m not absolving other people, but Singer has been doing this shit for a while. He’s a vet with a 3 pitch mix, but he doesn’t ever wanna use his third pitch so he burns himself out on two pitches most of the game.
He’s a vet that pitches like a rookie. Not smart. I’d almost rather him be in the bullpen at this point. He’d make a great middle relief bullpen arm and stretch are depth out quite a bit.
As a starter, he doesn’t do what a starter needs to do. Did you know he’s only gone more than six innings ONE time the entire year? His opening start against Minny in March.
So he can do it. He just doesn’t want to (doesn’t pitch smart enough to)
