The complaints about him?  Some folks mentioned that they didn't like his arm action and pegged him as a future reliever, but I think they're just following the "27 Points of Professional Pitching" manual.  Lincecum fell with those people too.

How much do you want to bet, that if we draft Gerritt Cole, that he'll throw one bullpen, and then --- > 40% of the M's field employees will press the idea of his becoming a super-closer?
I'm serious.
Same would happen with -ANY- college superstar the M's drafted.  There would immediately begin a movement to see how great he was as a reliever.

Glad to see you can sign off on the mechanics, G.  :fistbump:  Always comforting to pass the reality check :- )
