Hung a slider, and I was in 2k protect mode. I was sped up for the 100 FB and looking to go oppo and I ran into the SL since he hung it.

He’s nasty and that’s the only hit I ever had off him.

@DailyRandomHR @JLucroy20 is it close your eyes and swing against Chapman or did you actually see it? Lol. Inquiring minds want to know

Spilly, pitch calling from the dugout is very difficult. I did it last year on my HS team, and needless to say, it’s not easy. You would to have a guy that really knew what he was doing and had intimate knowledge of the pitchers movement and the location on the plate.

Can it be done? Yes, but no one can do it better than the catcher, if the catcher is worthy of it.

That’s the question mark though.

Ethan Katz is a relationship coach who can make analytics make sense to pitchers. That's what the Rockies need. And I still think pitch calling from the dugout can work, as long as it's a former catcher doing it. Full Mile High Territory episode on YouTube and podcasts.
