Is this true?
That has to be the dumbest approach to pitching I have ever read. I guess the game has passed me by. I thought the purpose of pitching was to disrupt the batter's timing by changing speeds, location and movement.
Bump....
White doesn't appear to have any measurable positives at this point.
I am inclined to cut this experiment short. The consistancy of hitters converting a pitcher's count into a hit is not a coincidence.
However many starts beyond this point is too many. He is no longer a major league pitcher. Harvey, along with Cozart, are two free agent signings that missed from the very beginning.
Houston is acting like they know they are losing their strangle hold on the AL West. Adversity does strange things to teams.....I don't recall the Angels being that chirpy when Lucroy was pummeled. I just hope that the Angels can sustain their level of play.....it would be amazing for them to beat Cole. That would send even a better message.
