Most pitchers have subtle tells. Catching pitch tipping early is a skill & mastering it is an art. Relying on actual tells is accurate. Relying on probability alone isn’t. Analytics can suggest what might happen. Pitch tipping tells you what is happening. Big difference. ⚾️ #mlb

Torey Lovullo just announced the 5 man rotation order that Mike Hazen dictated to him. I can’t wait for Torey Lovullo to announce the lineup and batting order that Mike Hazen dictated as well. Let’s see if Mike Hazen will tell you what predetermined days off each player will have

It’s amazing how things turn around when you stabilize the 9th inning. Roles have a purpose in this game. Clearly defined roles serve a pivotal purpose within the game, just as they do within a team’s front office structure. Well done!
Your GM doesn’t believe having a closer is necessary to win! The fixation on scoring opportunities while disregarding the bullpen’s back end reveals a lack of strategic acumen and decision-making. Solution: Get a closer & yes, fix the little things that are fixable. @CamCox12

D-backs GM Mike Hazen believes the team is working on the little things and can get out of its slump, bullpen and otherwise.
