July 1, 20215 yr My pitches move like (slower) knuckleballs, so eh, maybe. Are the bases loaded? I feel like than my odds go up.

July 1, 20215 yr I'm a 56 year old leftie with a ton of movement on my curve (orange juice for grip). So, can I throw a high (out of the zone) 4 seamer followed by a bunch of benders in the dirt off the plate? Why yes, yes I can.

July 2, 20215 yr I played 4 years of d3 baseball as an average knuckleball specialist. The hardest part would be getting him to two strikes, but I think I’d have a shot
July 2, 20215 yr You worded the question wrong. The thread should be "If you were pitching, would Sano strike himself out?" Maybe he should hit against The Turtle and resolve this once and for all.

July 2, 20215 yr I'm amused by the lack of a definitive "No" answer. Clearly, that's the wrong answer anyway. At this point, I think it's a definite possibility that Sano strikes himself out soft tossing to himself.
July 2, 20215 yr It really does make you wonder what his mind set is when he steps into the batters' box and what, if any, help he gets and/or what kind of practice he undertakes. It seems that he has the basic see ball hit ball approach and whatever happens happens.
July 2, 20215 yr not sure where else to put this, but I asked Steve Adams (Twins' fan and MLBTraderumors guy) what they should do with Sano ......
July 2, 20215 yr Depends on which Sano stands at the plate. The one who swings at anything low and outside? Yes, I could get him.
July 2, 20215 yr Put me in for a maybe ? - I am a soft tossing lefty and I would not throw him a strike so it would depend on who is umpiring and how swingy he is. Umps seem to like calling strikes on balls outside the strike zone to him. Also seems Sano is having a little more trouble hitting lefties this year. I would only pitch to him behind a batting practice screen though because if he got hold of one up the middle I'd probably be killed - lol!
