MLB／若國民再提優渥合約留王建民　紐갠… - 棒球

This is not good news for Wang fans. When he was pitching well on the Yankees
he sat around 92-95 mph. If he is still only at 85-87 mph this far after he’
s had surgery, then he still has a while to go.

At this point the Nationals would be foolish to offer him anything more than
a minor league contract. Even if he is healthy enough to pitch in 2011, there
is a pretty good chance that he won’t be good enough to pitch in the majors.

If he ever gets his velocity back at all it might take a decent amount of
time pitching in the minors for him to build up arm strength. This is not an
elbow injury here, this is a shoulder problem and unfortunately that can mean
the end of his career.

It’s really a shame, until Phil Hughes this season Wang was probably the
best Yankees pitching prospect since Andy Pettitte.

Not every pitcher can have a good sinker no matter wherever in majors
or minor unless you’re the only unique. Everybody knows that sinker is like
bowling depends on the heavy characteristic not up to velocity, in fact, when
sinker is up to 90 mph that’s quite enough to deal with hitter, means that
they can hit but hit bad.

If Wang’s healthy comes back with 90 mph, i think $150M is worthy to
start major. Just don’t forget that Wang has this talent of sinker rolling.
