If you pull out, the number of sperm in your semen will be lower than if you didn’t pull out.

That doesn’t mean the likelihood of one getting pregnant after pulling out is zero, but it’s gotta be better

Is it a given at this time that the Cardinals will only need 3 starters for the divisional series? is the schedule out already where there are absolutely going to be 2 off days in the first 4 games? In the past there have been many divisional series that would require 4 starters assuming that one does not go on short rest.

Hey, painguy

or really anyone who’s played baseball more recently than I have.

I was having a discussion about Wainwright and whether he would get rocked by the Phillies or not just based on the type of pitcher he is. I used a bunch of pitch-f/x and saber stats to prove my point fairly well, but dude was all saying that curves and sliders (especially Waino’s) are really easy to spot because you can see how they spin coming out of the pitcher’s hand.

Is this legitimate? I don’t see how you could see which way the ball is spinning when it’s spinning so fast and either way, I don’t see how you’d have time to react based on that info.

He also said that my description of Waino’s curve as “hit it if you can” was way off.

Opinions?

Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.

by prophetjohn on Sep 23, 2009 9:27 PM EDT reply actions  

The old theory

was RHP shouldn’t throw breaking balls to LHH for that reason, but I think as long as your breaking ball is as AWESOME as Wainwright’s is, you can get away with it.

Wainwright commands both side of the plate with his off speed stuff. That is extremely rare

Winer's CV

…is a 12-6 that breaks nearly vertically. That makes it useful against LHB’s and RHB’s.

A RHP with a 1-7 curve shouldn’t throw it to a LHB because then it will end up down and in, which is a dangerous spot because you can just tilt and drop the head of the bat

by thepainguy on Sep 23, 2009 9:34 PM EDT up reply actions  

yup

I had a coach that hated me throwing CBs to LHBs, so I’d have to throw my 80mph meatball fastball or lazy change and get murdered, rather than getting weak popups with my curve like I did under every other coach.

True.

Does anyone remember the sequence of pitches from that at bat? Like Painguy said, there’s an argument to be made that Beltran knew the curve was coming.

Your buddy is wrong, for sure. But if he doesn’t care to base his judgments on numbers…

The other thing is that Waino started out a little rocky this season. I think that start was definitely in the rocky phase. They cured his pitch-tipping later, I think.

Waino's pitchers

A good slider looks like a fastball out of the hand. It’s theoretically possible to detect it by looking for a red dot in the upper corner. However, that’s easier said than done. The velocity is going to be close enough to the FB that you can’t detect it that way.

Nobody’s going to mistake Wainer’s curve for anything else out of the hand due to the lower velocity. But they are going to have a hard time hitting it due to the pure vertical break. That makes it a hit-it-if-you-can pitch (like Koufax’s).

by thepainguy on Sep 23, 2009 9:32 PM EDT up reply actions  

Really,

based on flight path, they all look the same until about 2/3 of the way to the batter, then the slider breaks in to lefties and the fastball and change break away. Nasty stuff

Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.

can’t you tell it’s a curve as soon as it leaves his hand in real time?

Yes and no

I’ve never seen a curve like Wainos in person, but your typical first reaction if you’re sitting FB is that you think it’s going to be more up and in (hence the knee buckling). And even if you can catch it early , it’s still pretty fuckin hard to hit if it’s down. Hangers on the other hand couldn’t be easier.

Not afraid to nitpick

by joker24 on Sep 23, 2009 9:41 PM EDT up reply actions  

By the time you see the dot on a good one it's too late

A well executed RHP vs. RHH slider is just about impossible to hit. You can’t adjust to the horizontal movement…or the vertical movement. Problem obviously being a cement mixer slider is basically the easiest pitch in the game to hit.

Not afraid to nitpick

by joker24 on Sep 23, 2009 9:45 PM EDT up reply actions  

The Phillies aren't any different than other MLBers

They might be better at hitting mistakes, but if Waino makes his pitches it doesn’t matter. The only thing you could say is that the lefties negate somewhat his slider, but he’s gotten good like Carp at burying that inside where it’s still a good pitch vs. lefties.

It’s true that on some percentage of pitches you can “feel” a slider or curve early from arm action or [hard to describe you just see it coming early] when something is off, but not really on well executed pitches. When it comes from the same arm slot and same mechanics (which you can bet Waino’s do), your hope is to catch a hanger or just sit on a pitch period, not see wrist action on a good pitch.

If Waino pitches like he has and has 3.5 pitches working, your friend is wrong. You can’t account for that curve/slider/FB combo without getting lucky.
