Has Wright had a good start at the major league level?

That’s a slider?Originally Posted by Enscheff
Yuck.
Yeah, Anderson felt like either a walk or a grand slam for sure, especially after he fouled one off and made him have to throw a fourth strike.
They are just as mystified with the sudden change in pitch selection as me.
Wright gets a few quick outs on the fastball early. Then when he faces those hitters agian he gives them a strict diet of breaking balls. Why?
Does anyone really think the game plan vs a hitter has to change after he's literally seen 2 pitches?
slider, cutter, something hard that breaks away. He threw like 80% of the time that inning. Truly baffling.
I don’t see much horizontal movement. Looks more like a change.
Edit: they called it a cutter. I’m not doubting you by the way. You can see the spin, it’s just not doing much.
It moves pretty much exactly like an MLB quality cutter. It is a good pitch, but it isn't some elite pitch that it makes any sense to throw 30 times in an inning like he just did.
That inning looked more like something you'd see in ST when the guy decides "I'm going to work on the cutter this inning".
Do they have printouts of guys with COVID taped to the seats? How tremendously sad.
LOL
Pretty nice hit by Duvy off a RHP.
Maybe it looks weird because he was throwing it right down the middle? I dunno.
So far the book on Wright is that he will challenge you early with that FA the first time, then go strictly to breaking stuff the 2nd time.
He has literally done the same thing every game, and the implosion occurs when he switches tactics.
Watching this game is a real nut shot...
Poor Camargo. That hit to the nuts lowered his xwSWAG.
Now he's just all over the place
Six damn walks lmao. Yank him ASAP
4 pitch walk to the speed skater. Might as well have been Kristi Yamaguchi.
when did Waste Management buy the Braves or take management control??
This group is full of garbage collectors.
Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......
And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

This rotation is the worst I can ever remember the Braves having.
How is this bullpen going to make it with the starting pitching that we have?
