From Mark Sheldon - Leake still in Baker's plans
Quote:
“The toughest years in the big leagues are the third, fourth and fifth years when everybody knows you,” Baker said. “They know you’re not getting your breaking ball over. They know you follow your changeup with a fastball. Now it’s up to you to readjust. There is no room for a marginal or bad year. People just want to take you off to the side. Every pitcher I know has had a bad year or two.”
“He’s a Maddux type. I made a call to Greg and Greg talked to him about some things.”
