Great article, absolutely must-click. Inside baseball at its very best.

Something you didn’t mention, but which is really cool, is the sidebar with Willie Wilson. It’s fascinating to see the similarities between two approaches to the game from different eras.

Now other teams will be able to defend against him, and he’ll be lucky to steal five bases this year. It’s like the guy years ago who admitted in a post-game interview that he couldn’t hit a curve ball. It’s not like most pitchers in the league didn’t already know, but there might be a rookie call-up who hadn’t heard yet.

Future coach in his outlook, I think.

What sticks out is how much detail Crisp sees, processes and stores about a pitcher’s moves, tic, and quirks. Fascinating.
