#Angels RHP Tommy Hanson's fastball clocked at 89-91 mph in first 3 innings. This late in spring, was probably hoping for litle more velo.

 

It is what it is

[Wallerrrr]

Hanson starting to look good.

and he's pitching better too

[nando714]

Great........

[jshep]

And Hanson is hurt. Shocking

[gotbeer]

This can't be good.  

[Wallerrrr]

 

is it just me or does it look like hanson is just flat out not finishing his delivery which is leaving his pitches up...dude looks like his back hurts or something

apparently it was his back....or something...all his stuff was up in the zone

 

ugh

[Aaronkv]

Welcome to the roation Jerome!!

[bloodbrother]

Jeez, he didn't even make it to April before getting hurt

[Wallerrrr]

i'd go with Richards but thats just me

[Wallerrrr]

its cool Sosh..take your time...dont rush to get another pitcher out there or anything

[bloodbrother]

Kyle Lohse come on down!

[jshep]

Well at least we have lots of rotation depth

[mancini79]

I don't get worried if a player has bad stats in Spring Training. But I do get worried when a player can't actually play this late into Spring.

[Chuck]

Tommy Hanson looked fine to me. Scioscia and Iannetta overreacting? Hopefully.....

[bloodbrother]

Hopefully it was only something like back spasms or a cramp or something IDK

[Chuck]

Also, I really liked what I saw from Hanson the past two innings. Showed much better FB command, 89-91 velo and very good offspeed stuff. Finally showed some knockout pitches I've been accustomed to seeing. 

[WallyWorld]

for those of us not watching, anyone want to explain what's happening?  Hanson went out to pitch the 4th and was pulled because of an issue with his back?

[WallyWorld]

if Hanson does go on the DL, I would assume Richards would take his place, but maybe I'm wrong.

[rick99gtp]

On Hanson's last warm-up pitch, Iannetta signaled the dugout and they all walked out to check on him.  I couldn't tell anything was wrong by the video...nor the replay.

Hanson threw a practice pitch to Iannetta without any indication of being hurt. Iannetta then met Hanson at the mound and looked worried, which got Sosh out there. He was then pulled and nobody really knows why.
