Ya, but his HR prevention in AAA wasn't neccesarilly good. It wasn't awful, but AAA hitters would park it from time to time despite a huge park advantage. I'm guessing that his command has been on-point in the first couple of starts with very few centered fastballs.
His SwS% in AAA was 6.2 in MLB right now its 8.7%. It really makes you wonder, maybe Fister just wasn't throwing his change-up that much in the minors? Maybe in AAA Fister was ditching his best pitch (changeup) for whatever reason, much like French is ditching his best pitch (slider) with the Mariners.
Anyhow, I'm going to once again have my eyes glued on his next start.
