Reply to "Player Confidence"

And you might be right; I am only going off what I read originally.

I do know this, even longtime pros get a little nervous when the pitcher is throwing gas and is a little loose with the control; its just human nature. What is it that they used to say about Randy Johnson? He was, on occasion, "effectively wild."

What I have observed is that pressure and nervousness are things that the athlete puts on him or herself. From wherever it comes (fear of getting hit, playing in front of a scout, trying to impress your folks) it is real for the athlete so he or she needs to figure it out and do something about it.
