tic ballclub” He obviously wasn’t referring to the staffs “ACE” Barry Zito’s fastball witch since he signed a ridiculous 126 million dollar contract last offseason to move across the bay from Oakland has been neither faster nor more energetic and has looked little more than pedestrian. Zito never topped the gun over 84 M.P.H. opening day against the dodgers which is a huge concern for a pitcher who relies on his changeup and curveball to be effective. The dodgers never respected he subpar fastball which led to few batters being fooled by Zito’s curveball or changeup which means a lot of balls in play for an aging defense.
