They just spent a ton of money bringing in Cano to at least pretend to put a competitive roster out there this year. He makes a ton more sense for them if they have no other warm bodies at catcher than he does for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I toss trash in the trash can with whichever. my uncle threw left handed but does everything else right handed. then again, he started out throwing with his right hand and then his dad forced him into being a left handed thrower. but i have quite a few friends that were lefty/lefty when playing baseball but did everything else right handed. and some friends who were righty/righty in baseball and wrote and ate left handed. nothing worse than sitting next to those guys at a school table or eventually out to eat dinner table.

My parents tell me that when I was little, I didn't seem to throw better with one arm than another. Since my older brothers were right-handed throwers, they knew they had gloves for me so I became a righty. I write left-handed and would generally call myself a lefty. But noooo, I couldn't be a left-handed pitcher! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Speaking of lefties @Ken_Rosenthal: Sources: #Reds in advanced talks with Grady Sizemore, but still possible that he will go in another direction.

witesoxfan Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Robin Ventura hit left handed but threw right handed. That's why he could play 3B. Rickey Henderson batted right handed but threw left handed. Tim Lincecum throws right handed but bats left handed. Randy Johnson threw left handed but batted right handed. I mean, how many 3B/SS/2B can you think of that bat left handed? I do almost everything with my right hand, but find that I have slightly better dexterity with my left handed. In all, it's not an uncommon practice at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's impossible to disagree with facts, which this is. I'd be curious to see the percentage. But we see switch hitters for this reason too - while whatever side you are batting from typically does the work, this is something you can learn with practice too. Guys don't pop out of the womb switch hitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
