Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

I mean, he's a really good player and the Toronto fans will see how just how good he is.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

When he has his breaking stuff going and he's throwing that for strikes, he has a little bit more success.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

He doesn't have anything that really goes away to a lefty.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

He doesn't throw a two-seam fastball.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

He'll throw a changeup, but not very often.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

So everything to a left-handed hitter comes in, the breaking ball, the slider, the sweeper, whatever, if you want to call it, and the four-seamer.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

So everything is inside.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

So nothing goes away.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

So lefties tend to hit him a little bit better.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

Righties always does well.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

He's not afraid to come inside, and then that opens up the outer half for his breaking stuff.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

Um, if he's throwing strikes, you know, I think, let's see, last year he walked 13 guys in 110 innings and he's already walked more than that.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

And the amount of innings that he's had, he's had a few pickups over the last couple of games because it's just, he's not getting his breaking stuff over.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

And then all of a sudden he's throwing the forcing fastball and it's a flat forcing fastball and it's getting hit.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

Uh, so if he ever mixed in a two seam fastball and get something to move, even moving into righties, I think he would have a lot more success, but he's a guy that can, you know, he's, he works fast.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

So you absolutely love that.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

Uh, you know, but if you throw strikes and I think he has, he'll have success.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

He'll have some success tonight.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

Hopefully he misses Guerrero.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Vladdy Gets Dinged, John Axford In-Studio & Bautista/Encarnacion Interview

So I don't, I don't know.
