Anger Training

Via Fansided, Felix Hernandez is training angry:

Hernandez has been working with the same personal trainer that has worked with Robinson Cano and Nelson Cruz, who Servais referred to as Iron Glenn. The Mariners skipper has been in touch with the trainer throughout the offseason, and he got a good sign out of that correspondence.

“I asked Iron Glenn the other day what was Felix’s mental state, and he shot me one word back. He said: ‘Angry.’”

Cano and Cruz are older players holding up quite well despite their age. Hernandez enters his age 31 season after a bit of a fall-off at age 30. That’s typically when pitchers start losing something off their fastball. If Iron Glenn has a way to slow the decline, It should be an interesting year in Seattle.
