WHY WOULD THE PHILLIES REMOVE THIS. His slider and sweeper are doing great things and I recommend holding onto Turnbull until he's officially removed from the rotation. Don't do anything until they actually do something.

And the Phillies want to "limit his innings" and move him out of the rotation. No. Seriously, don't do that. Why would you do that. WHY. Just put up the red cape and turn this bull around for another start. I don't want Spencer to be a hot topic for debate, just let him run his course as he's a clear "Vargas Rule" with his four-seamer and sweeper. SEE THIS OPPORTUNITY AND GRAB IT BY THE HORNS. Who are you yelling at? You know, them. I swear, if he doesn't get a start against the Angels...

Blegh. He got called strikes on the heater and sweeper, but where's the whiffs?! Expect a little better against the White Sox, though I think we can all understand that Turnbull isn't your budding ace or anything close to it. Streamer against poor squads.

Yesssss. The sweeper + changeup were effective, while Turnbull's four-seamer (that's truly a cutter wearing a mask with four stitched lines across it) was able to befuddle enough inside the zone to pull Turnbull a full six frames without a run. It went by so fast. I mean, it was just 91/92 mph. No no no, the game! Ohhhh, right. The Cardinals obliged for plenty of outs and I wonder if it'll be the same against the Pirates next time out. My instinct says NO - The Pirates are messing up SPs left and right! - and my heart says YES. Up to you y'all.

Turnbull's similarities to Ashcraft aren't lost on me when you realize his "four-seamer" is actually a cutter wearing a Parisian visage. Why does it have to be French? Why are you not okay with it being French? It's pretty cool to see Turnbull rack up the Ks, though just one truly impressed me - a lovely changeup away and out of the zone to a LHB. The rest was a mish-mash of breakers falling way out of the zone or his sneaky sneaky cutter at 91 mph landing up-and-away to LHB. I don't see it as repeatable for a another start, sadly, but hey, maybe he pulls it off against the Cardinals. Don't get your hopes up.
