[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 137604, member: 322"] For a snowy day .... just got done shoveling for 2 hours total and chores...... I was thinking about what [USER=1824]@Chan15A[/USER] said in the Kel Johnson thread, "I'd like to see Danny Hall move the lineup a bit (to move Kel) to the 5-spot or 2 spot, getting him more fastballs. He's still young so lets take some pressure off." I thought pitch selection depended largely on 1) batter strengths / weaknesses 2) Men on base & # of outs? 3) Count & pitcher strength? And as far as count goes, there is always the pitch sequence. Here's an article I found last year about pitch sequence. [URL]http://pitchingprofessor.com/Article_Pitch_sequence.html[/URL] Don't confuse me with someone who knows much about this subject, but it is interesting. There are articles on this site about "the benefits of unifying directional and rotational forces" and other stuff. I don't think our guys need a lot of this, they just need to throw strikes. (tic) To me it's real simple, start off every batter with a strike and finish up every batter with a strike. [/QUOTE]
