Just lost a mph or two off his fastball.

Zumaya has been injured more than he pitched. Andrew MIller (one of Miggy's favorites) also couldbe an example of this. We'll never know if their performance has suffered because they were rushed or if they were not the pitcher we thought. At this point, I hope and pray that Verlander and Zumaya (and MIller) perform as they had been projected to. We need them.Chuck Piotrowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00587415400958055622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1285026999855417119.post-49983242415458394272009-03-07T21:01:00.000-08:002009-03-07T21:01:00.000-08:00Verlander and Zumaya were rookies in 2006.

Leyland says that he will take talent over experiance.
