Rocker only has a "65-70 grade slider?" What has he been watching. He had 17 of his 19 strikeouts against Duke on that slider and it has become his bread and butter pitch. I'd like to see what other college pitcher has a better one.

I may be wrong, but I believe the grades are out of 80, not 100. As such, 70 out of 80 is actually a pretty dominant grade.
