What is happening? Welcome to the Plus pitch podcast. More on Pitching Podcast from PitcherList.com. My name is Nick Pollack. Today is March 29th. And yes, we are going to talk about baseball. I know I'm a little late today. I am moving in the next week. So just keep in mind that among everything, including, I don't know, that we have live baseball to stream with live chat for free on playback.tv slash pitchers. Like literally

It's zero for 13 whiffs in the change-up.

He's not really getting it quite down as much as you want. The slider, he didn't really face many right-handers, so the slider was more on the back burner,

but it was two for ten whiffs, which is 20% swing strike rate, but, you know, it's not really

like this demonstrative, like, hey, I'm going to destroy you now kind of pitch.

And you have the sinker that wasn't well spotted, but it still is inside the mix. And as long as he has this

extension and throwing both four seamers and sinkers for strikes, that will be enough because
