While I think Fister has the inside track, Wak's comments about Fister looking nervous made me a little nervous.
It's not very often that you hear this leadership group criticizes a player. So when it happens now, I take note. Coupla times it's happened recently:
1. Z on the radio saying Olson needed to 'Step up and be a big league pitcher'. I interpreted this as, 'we think his mechanics and ability are fine, he's not pitching up to his ability, and if he doesn't soon then we're done with him'.
2. Wak saying Fister looked nervous. He spoke it like he was concerned about it, not like ' I'm sure it's a one-time thing and he'll be OK'. It made me think, maybe they're not as enamored with Fister as I thought they were.
That, along with the raves I've been hearing about Vargas, makes me wonder about the whole situation.
Hopefully, they're just trying to push Fister to better heights, and he'll respond.
