Actually, he's added more horizontal movement and a little less vertical to his curveball making it less of a 12-6 curveball going from 8.6 inches to 11.3 this year. He also throws it just 11.2% of the time vs 27.2% (2nd most of his pitches) when he first arrived. On top of it, since it's his 4th pitch, he's throwing it over more for strikes as a get me over since batters aren't looking for it.
The biggest improvement to his repertoire is his changeup, which was terrible in the minor league
Curious how next year plays out for KC and DET. My guess is their pitching staffs have a bunch of injuries. CLE can’t hit. I’ll be surprised if CLE comes back.m
Maybe it’s jealousy but I’m not enjoying it.
It looks like Jason Foley, the regular season closer, is almost out of the bullpen rotation. He and Jackson Jobe are the low guys on the staff with just 0.1 postseason IP so far.
As if it weren't already going to be tough enough for Albert Suarez to find a club with a traditional starter role for him.
Only ones I’d look to extend now are Gunnar, and maybe Holliday or Basallo. Premium defensive positions and young enough to not worry about going past their primes. Westburg would need to be a team friendly deal as he’s older and I wonder if we’re getting his best years now.
