You should always find out in the bull pen which pitches are working for you that day.
I don't like seeing a KB thrown into the mix because it can be the one that ends your game. Make a mistake and you will regret it. A dificult pitch and you are either a KB pitcher or not. The KB is a totally different pitching motion and dosen't help you gain arm strength.
In the bull pen loosen up and throw you pitches that are working full out a few times before hitting the mound.
You are better to have a couple pitches that are working well than have 3-4 that are not working well.
17, senior. Four pitches, fastball (and 2 seam), changeup, curve, and slider. most pitching coaches will tell you not to mix a curve and slider but if thrown properly and with distinction, having both can be an advantage. I work from 85-87 but have hit 89 on the gun. To be successful in most high school leagues you only need to be able to have command with your fastball and an offspeed pitch you can throw for strikes. 80+ is an advantage, definitely.
