Say It Ain't Slow, Joe

Who am I, I guess, to judge Joel Pineiro if he wants to continue to be a Zero True Outcomes pitcher? He finally got that strikeout—swinging, even!—but until then Pineiro had lived by the Platonically perfect Dave Duncan mantra, pitching to all manners of contact and throwing 84-89 mile an hour sinker after 84-89 mile an hour sinker. (Gameday says Pineiro threw two 90 mph fastballs—one to Jordan Schafer in the second, and another right before Francoeur picked up the sacrifice fly.)
