No it's not like the frisbee. It's much more than a gimmick pitch. It's a solid enough pitch. But it's nothing baseball-world-changing.
Exactly. It's a for-real major league pitch, unlike Shingo's frisbee.
How do you think he would pitch if that wasnt in his arsenal is more what I mean. I dont know too much about the guy but from what they make it sound like thats the pitch that is freezing batters. I also heard that sometimes he can pull an extra 3-5 mph on his fastball sometimes to screw up the batters timing.
