chw42 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I don't get it. Why not just have Robert look for fastballs to hit? He's not getting off-speed pitches in the zone anyways. They're usually a foot off the plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 (edited) Rookie struggles.
