Reply to "Frustration in Finding the Strike Zone"

Lack of command is almost always the result of poor throwing mechanics. And it’s usually more than just one thing. It usually begins with one specific bad move that creates a chain of other bad moves. None of the bad moves ever repeat themselves the same way in sequence so the throwing motion isn’t repeatable. I agree that it’s probably time to find a new pitching coach. Unfortunately there aren’t very many that are competent in teaching the complete throwing motion. I like to compare the complete throwing motion to a pie that has been cut into 8 pieces. It’s not hard to find a pitching coach that can teach about one or two pieces of the pie. But it’s very hard to find someone that can teach about the whole pie. Corpus is a baseball hotbed so maybe there is someone good down there. I know one of the Asst Coaches at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi and I will ask him if he has a name that I can pass on to you. If he does I will send it to you in a PM. Good luck!
