because of Harang's height his fastball comes in more like 98 than 93.

he has a lot more movement on the fastball than you can pick up on TV.

there doesn't appear to be the slightest bit of arm action difference between his slider and fastball.

and pure conjecture on my part; but based on seeing him pitch against the Cubs the last year and a half (i've seen a lot more Cubs games than Reds games), he pours over the advance scouting reports on hitters.

and the most important thing of all, and the thing that seperates him from Brandon Claussen, he made the almighty and unrecordable mental adjustment.
