Alias Smith and Leone -- in two parts
The best part Friday was after everyone stopped caring ...

 

It was a 12-1 laugher, and no one much cared what happened in the 8th and 9th innings, but some very cool Pitch f/x data can be found there, if you know where to look.

Carson Smith

Dominic Leone

And they give us a nice catchphrase (though not many remember the '70s TV show), given that they seem to be emulating a pair of bullpen aces from the recent past.

 

All at Mariner Brainstorm.

Spec, I am beginning to buy into your line on these two. Looking at the bottom line, I like Leone a little better (younger, with more upside), and the stats have been impressive. Given the ST performance, I am beginning to wonder what all the fuss about needing a reliever was all about. Neither of these two kids have been hit, and they have bottom lines at least as good as, if not better, than Farquhar and Wilhelmson, let alone Rodney.
