Dodgers Sign Takumi Numata - RealGM Wiretap The Los Angeles Dodgers announced this week that they have signed Japanese right-hander Takumi Numata.
The 19-year-old is somewhat of an unknown in Major League Baseball circles.
"At 6-1 http://www.nycitymlsstore.com/tony-taylor-new-york-city-jersey/ , 188 pounds, it doesn't sound like there's that much physical projection to look for. His fastball sits in the upper 80s to low 90s ... topping out at 92 mph. He goes right after hitters with it and largely pitches off of his fastball, though he also has a slider," writes Jonathan Mayo.
Finger Lands Carlos Gonzalez On Disabled List - RealGM Wiretap
The Colorado Rockies have placed Carlos Gonzalez on the disabled list with inflammation in his left index finger.
Gonzalez left in the fifth inning of Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks when his finger again swelled.
"I try to stay in there, but it gets to the point where I can't grip a bat. It gets so big, I can't fit into a batting glove," Gonzalez said.
The 28-year-old missed three games in late May because of swelling in the same finger.
Blue Jays Looking For 2B Bullpen Help - RealGM Wiretap
Jim Beattie, a scout with the Blue Jays, says the club is looking for help at both second base and in the bullpen.
"This is my fourth year with the Blue Jays and I love it," Beattie said. "We have 22 pro scouts http://www.nycitymlsstore.com/tommy-mcnamara-new-york-city-jersey/ , way more than a lot of teams. When I was with the Expos and Orioles, we had no more than six or eight pro scouts.
"I give Alex [Anthopoulos] coverage reports on players. We're always looking for pitching depth in the bullpen and our situation at second place is a little unsettled. We have two guys (Emilio Bonifaccio and Maicer Izturis) there but they're not an everyday guys."
锘? Tennis psychology is nothing more than understanding the workings of your opponent's mind, and gauging the effect of your own game on his mental viewpoint, and understanding the mental effects resulting from the various external causes on your own mind. You cannot be a successful psychologist of others without first understanding your own mental processes, you must study the effect on yourself of the same happening under different circumstances. You react differently in different moods and under different conditions. You must realize the effect on your game of the resulting irritation, pleasure, confusion, or whatever form your reaction takes. Does it increase your efficiency? If so, strive for it, but never give it to your opponent.
Once you have judged accurately your own reaction to conditions, study your opponents, to decide their temperaments. Like temperaments react similarly, and you may judge men of your own type by yourself. Opposite temperaments you must seek to compare with people whose reactions you know.
A person who can control his own mental processes stands an excellent chance of reading those of another, for the human mind works along definite lines of thought, and can be studied. One can only control one's, mental processes after carefully studying them.
A steady phlegmatic baseline player is seldom a keen thinker. If he was he would not adhere to the baseline.
The physical appearance of a man is usually a pretty clear index to his type of mind. The stolid, easy-going man, who usually advocates the baseline game http://www.nycitymlsstore.com/shannon-gomez-new-york-city-jersey/ , does so because he hates to stir up his torpid mind to think out a safe method of reaching the net. There is the other type of baseline player, who prefers to remain on the back of the court while directing an attack intended to break up your game. He is a very dangerous player, and a deep, keen thinking antagonist. He achieves his results by mixing up his length and direction, and worrying you with the variety of his game. He is a good psychologist. The first type of player mentioned merely hits the ball with little idea of what he is doing, while the latter always has a definite plan and adheres to it. The hard-hitting, erratic, net-rushing player is a creature of impulse. There is no real system to his attack, no understanding of your game. He will make brilliant coups on the spur of the moment, largely by instinct; but there is no http://www.nycitymlsstore.com/ronald-matarrita-new-york-city-jersey/ , mental power of consistent thinking. It is an interesting, fascinating type.
The dangerous man is the player who mixes his style from back to fore court at the direction of an ever-alert mind. This is the man to study and learn from. He is a player with a definite purpose. A player who has an answer to every query you propound him in your game. He is the most subtle antagonist in the world. He is of the school of Brookes. Second only to him is the man of dogged determination that sets his mind on one plan and adheres to it, bitterly, fiercely fighting to the end, with never a thought of change. He is the man whose psychology is easy to understand, but whose mental viewpoint is hard to upset, for he never allows himself to think of anything except the business at hand. This man is your Johnston or your Wilding. I respect the mental capacity of Brookes more, but I admire the tenacity of purpose of Johnston.
Pick out your type from your own mental processes, and then work out your game along the lines best suited to you.
When two men are, in the same class http://www.nycitymlsstore.com/r-j-allen-new-york-city-jersey/ , as regards stroke equipment, the determining factor in any given match is the mental viewpoint. Luck, so-called, is often grasping the psychological value of a break in the game, and turning it to your own account.
We hear a great deal about the "shots we have made." Few realize the importance of the
