I think he’s able to pitch well in stretches, but those stretches don’t last very long. Just a real tenuous hold on whatever makes him effective at times. Not a guy you can rely on in any role.

Shenme yisi is like “has what meaning?”

you shenme yisi is the polite form. Just saying “Shenme Yisi?!” is akin to “what ARE you talking about?” Sound familiar now?

And keep in mind, I took one semester of Chinese 6 years ago – I wanted to take a second, but the class got cancelled. And my wife has taught me some, but her Chinese education pretty much stopped when she started kindergarten. So.
