Maybe there’s something to the Nate Robertson speculation.

But pitching is a complicated thing...I believe even a knee or leg problem can result in the type of thing you're describing.

Pitcher's don't suddenly forget how to throw a pitch, that would be like forgetting your momma's name. Then why can't he get much break on his slider? I think it's because the motion of the release hurts his arm. My guess is that Nate Robertson will finish the year on the DL with elbow tendonitis. Nate has an elbow injury.

Of course, now he needs to refind the stuff to be a closer. I’ve always thought Robertson had the mental makeup to be a closer.

So in other words, it could very well be Willis. Leyland said it’s 100% not Willis. So in other words, it could very well be Willis.

He's not getting younger either, and he's getting paid a lot more. He's also a lefty. I think it’s probably Willis. He’s not getting younger either, and he’s getting paid a lot more.

He's a former first round pick that's not getting any younger. It has to be Lambert, doesn’t it? He’s a former first round pick that’s not getting any younger.
