Partin on Pope: "Pope's got
guts. He's tough to hit against and he really competes out there. He isn't
fazed by anything. When things are working well Sean Pope is as good as
anybody. He makes his middle-upper 80's fastball do a lot of things. He can
ride an upper 80's fastball up in the zone and he can get good arm-side run
on his two-seamer down in the zone. He adds and subtracts from his fastball
better than anyone in our program. Pope's change-up and breakingball are
very solid as well. He'll help lead our staff in 2008."
