Our Ken does some great analysis here of what happened to Alec Hansen, and where he goes from here. Includes quotes from Matt Zaleski (his pitching coach in Winston-Salem) and a scout, a few videos and more information. Definitely a good read.

 

Reading that, I am very happy to see specific mechanical issues being mentioned in connection with Hansen.  Being another very tall and long levered pitcher, we have seen exactly these types of problem manifest themselves many times over the years, but most recently we have all been living these types of issues with Lucas Giolito.  The good news is that they also seem to feel like this is pretty fixable.

That would be a much needed good outcome on the pitching front.
