Volquez compares to Johan Santana, Cole Hamels
via ESPN (Insider) (http://insider.espn.go.com/mlb/insid...2=stateChanged)
Says he throws his changeup for a higher % of strikes and strikes out a higher % of hitters...also has a higher difference in velocity between change and FB... Pretty high praise...excited to watch him for the next several years! |

Re: Volquez compares to Johan Santana, Cole Hamels
Really nice breakdown. Not filled with a lot of "yes, but..." comments either but has respect for what he has done so far.
