E Santana helping Berrios fix flaw in his delivery

[Guest]

Pitchers should pitch and coaches should coach. It's Neil Allen's job to figure out how to assist a struggling rookie - what recommendations to offer, and most especially the timing. It's his job to find answers. I don't think this thread should become a referendum on Allen (please start a different thread if someone feels thus inclined), but that's the baseline I start with.

 

In that light I'm not sure how to interpret this static in the signal that ESan's assistance seems to be injecting. Certainly veterans should lead if that is their style, my first sentence notwithstanding. I need more information to be able to assimilate this, and I'm not even sure what that info would be.

Legend has it that the career-turning advice that made Sandy Koufax into the greatest pitcher in the game came from a back-up catcher.

Sal Butera's father, no doubt.

If it works

 

I have no problem if the advice comes from the P.A. announcer. 

Sounds like Blyleven is helping out too.
