Boy, when I see Kyle Snyder, that definitely brings back some dark, dark memories of the Royals when they just couldn't get ANYTHING to go right. Haven't had much luck developing pitchers in over 30 years, and guys like Snyder were smack dab in the middle of it. Dan Reichert, Jeff Austin, Jeff Granger, Chris George, Jimmy Gobble, Mike MacDougal, Jim Pittsley, Chad Durbin, Blake Stein, Glendon Rusch, JP Howell, Jeremy Affeldt, etc, etc, etc... [Reply]

He did have a tremendous slider, but I think it was more about his inability to throw strikes and not get hit, along with his diabeetus that did him in. [Reply]
