Fascinating. But there's probably a similar chart for AJ Burnett (minus a few mph) against a real hitter as well.

Yep
I remember AJ striking out the side in 9 pitches.

Also, Pineda had one of the highest Strike %s in baseball last year
Dude throws strikes, and blows hitters away with that fastball.

Something tells me there's more where that came from
I’m really excited about Pineda.

True- I'll give it to him
If he must know, I’m more excited about this guy than AJ. He’s younger, he’s nastier (though young AJ may have been nastier than Pineda) and he’ll be here a long time. Not to mention he’s spanish!

oh my
hope he harnesses that stuff even just moderately well, because that’s some raw power! here’s to liking the trade more over time…
