Overrated, overhyped.
I take it you're joking I assume? In 2 years there will not be another MLB pitcher even close to this kid. He is the real deal.
Yeah, unless he's like so many others that develop arm problems so early then are nothing but a shell of their former selves. Mark Pryor, Kerry Wood are just a couple of recent examples.
Too much too soon.
everytime I see this kid getting hurt I think of the sports writer who thought that he was being discriminated against because he had won a coulple of games and should have been given a place on the all star team. SPORTSWRITERS do not care about the athletes they are only concerned about their articles and notoriety. Their main mission is to bring down the athlete and bring said writer headlines. Most of them are wannabees or has beens, and hope to achieve dominance that they could not get from the sport themselves. Hopefull a responsible coach will get this kid to the next legitimate level.
