Could look at platoon splits vs. arm angle but it would require some work to get the latter into a number

Like, do you call Randy high sidearm or low three-quarters?
I'd at least call Justin Lawrence sidearm and he's regularly hit 100

Wade Boggs... the only man who could ride a horse in the Bronx and be cheered for it.

hmm, that's true. A cutoff for arm angle? Or a range....

The new inefficiency will be recruiting softball pitchers and transitioning them to underhand slinging baseballs. That’s the new moneyball

Couldn't you just quantify arm angle by using release points? That seems easier to me.

A weird arm angle isn't just deceptive, its also messing with the angles and geometry.  It's not that you can't necessarily see whats coming.

Someone pointed out that Rangers players may never hold any of the postseason records in their own park because it would take multiple WS runs to play as many games as the Dodgers have

I was a submarine pitcher as a kid. Only reason I ever got anyone out in high school.

I pitched for Lutherville travel team, too.
With *zero* talent.
I had a shitty fastball, a shitty sorta curve, and a shitty sorta palmball

Settling the earlier debate, its's clear Randy Arozarena has already overtaken Trout as the best player in baseball this postseason
Dodger Fan

Dan: a Shitty pitcher
Jeremy

Arozarena must've heard the broadcasters telling him to get a hittable fastball just as that pitch came in
Brendan Gawlowski

Maybe he's wearing a buzzer!

By the time I was a late teenager, just a funky pitching motion wasn't enough to get anyone out.
Mike
9:39
The palmball thats one you don't see anymore
Brendan Gawlowski

(For the record, I am not actually accusing him of wearing a buzzer)

I held it very low in my hand and got some really funky dip/fade.
But I doubt I ever hit 70 MPH on *any* pitch.

Late to the party here tonight, but who would have predicted at the beginning of the year that Manuel Margot would be batting cleanup in a WS game?
AvatarDan Szymborski
9:40
Problem was I had zero control over the funky dip/fade

Or Brosseau hitting third

Was that Lex Luthorville HS? Archrival of Smallville HS?
Brendan Gawlowski

Dan, I'm sorry I'm talking over your palmball
Chuck

Dan, can you talk about the World Series, please?
AvatarDan Szymborski

We were talking funky pitching motiosn!

Oh man Urias

If I tried to pitch I would focus completely on a knuckleball
Mike

This game has felt oddly unsuspenseful given that it's close and important
Mick

Dan can we get a Zips Time Warp article based on your high school pitching career?
