Giants made Brito throw 27 pitches in the 1st inning.

The kid doesn’t have enough variety in his arsenal.

The heater is 97. The change is 88.
But that’s it. He throws the curveball to righties but it’s not great.

Opposing hitters are gonna foul off a lot of stuff against him unless he can develop a reliable slider or splitter.
We made Cobb throw 40 in the first inning and he got off the hook cuz he faced a team that can't hit.

Today is at least a good test to see if we need to try someone else before May.

They should stick with Torres in the leadoff spot.

He’s been pretty good there.

Plug DJ in the fifth hole. He would be perfect there.

Much better 2nd inning for Brito. Better command of his breaking balls.
