So far it seems like Schultz has two strong pitches but once batters get to see it a couple times they don't have as much trouble handling them. The other offerings are rare and not really catching hitters off guard even when they are used rarely. I know they took the cutter away for now but that seems like the kind of pitch that would solve problems for him.

I don’t get it at all

FWIW, I think Schultz looked better than the box score will look. I didn't expect him to run a nearly 40% whiff rate across his arsenal, especially the sinker. Didn't get hit hard very often, homer was a cheapie, threw strikes. He got a couple big whiffs with his four seamer towards the end of his outing so I hope he can find a way to keep using that pitch effectively. He didn't get much out of his changeup but he really could have benefited from another pitch whether it was the changeup, a cutter, or something else.

He’s going to have to develop a change up or cutter (preferably both)

He’s just bad

I can't find splits since he went down for a reset or since he came back from getting hit, but I thought he's been better lately overall. I've been seeing rumblings that the Sox are going to call him up, too.

.235/.327/.471/.797 since the recall
