A few real quick things...
First, TribeJay's comment about Borowski's velocity is consistent with the data available thus far. According to FanGraphs pitch data, Borowski's fastball is sitting at 85mph this season, down from nearly 88 last season. It's only 58 pitches so far, but....
I also had said earlier I'd be curious to see what Lee's first start looked like. It's only one start, but so far he looks more like 2005 Cliff Lee than 2006/2007 Cliff Lee (circular arguments be damned). 78% fastballs that first start sitting just under 90mph. About 8% curveballs sitting around 74mph. And about 8% changeups sitting near 83mph. Hopefully he can keep that up and keep getting similar results.
