Farnsworth: "Time To Stop Finessing Slider"

Hey, check out Farnsie...he's going John Daly on us. Grip it and Rip it. Via Newsday -

Farnsworth said he watched video of his slider on Monday and feels as if he may have picked up something that will help him get it down and in to a lefthanded batter - like Joba's slider - instead of in the fat of the plate.

"At times I've babied it a lot, which is stupid of me to do," he said. "I'm not a finesse pitcher. Just trying to make a perfect pitch like a finesse pitcher would do. I don't need to be doing that because my arm will drag and more times than not it's been left over the middle of the plate."

This could be a "Ebby Calvin 'Nuke' LaLoosh" moment for Kyle. Don't think, Meat. It can only hurt the ball club.

I see a lot of 50' sliders in Krazy Kyle's future...
