Listenning to Sportstalk a few nights back, Lance was talking to Bryan Price. Price said Chapman had actually regressed as a pitcher because he threw nothing but heat as a reliever. Price sounded like he thinks the sky is the limit for Chapman. Price is a very articulate and intelligent guy. The one thing he was closed mouth about was "the plan" for Chapman in 2013.

They also posted video of his session and while he types that nobody made solid contact...the last swing in the video is definitely solid contact. You can't tell where it goes...but it goes a long way.Originally Posted by OnBaseMachine

That's why I'm kind of worried about the "bullpen to start the season" plan. You have to think he'll be going right back to bludgeoning hitters to death with fastballs in that role. I don't know how else they would do it, but I hate the fact that he'll be practically starting at square one again in May.
