The only good thing about this game is listening to Walker. He seems better than the other ex players.

Interesting on the post game show with Bob Walk, he was asked what he sees and what Keller needs to do to improve. Without actually saying it, he basically said he needs to get an out pitch. Mentioned how so many times he gets ahead 0-2 on guys and doesn't put them away

Exactly. Walk can see the obvious. When you watch Keller pitch, the question is "what it is about his repertoire that should have consistent success against batters?" I have never seen an answer to that question. Any semi-talented minor league pitcher can pitch in the majors if he's going to consistently mix a few scoreless innings with a lot of hits and runs overall. Keller needs an out pitch. But so does every other marginal pitcher who doesn't have one. Needing one and developing one are two different things.

does Keller really get ahead on the count 0-2 very often? I can believe he doesn't do well on that count but can't believe it comes up very often.
