Mr. Gulin (古林) Goes to Hokkaido

Not a bad outing. Two IP and 4 Ks, including two against foreign sluggers.

4 IP, 4Ks, 1 R.
The first two innings he induced a ton of grounders. Second two, he struck out four.

He looks even more dominant than when he was in Taiwan. I guess we have to wait until spring training is over to have a good gauge.

Shud be shohei money or go home… :cry:

Giving up that 3-run homerun is the real problem. The umpire calls being inconsistent and the Ham-fighter defense in disarray was what made the first inning so rough.

Gulin’s right shoulder has this tiny shrug before a breaking ball probably also didn’t help.

Yikes. I thought he fixed that problem.

He gave up mostly fly balls. That’s bound to happen.
