He seems be slinging the ball towards the plate, and his follow through isn't pretty with his landing foot doing a double tap. Has anyone else noticed a change, or is my memory faulty?
I absolutely distinctly remember last opening day he was doing a plant foot double-tap almost one-foot jump thing through release and I was like, does he always do that? The way I put it may sound exaggerated, but once I saw it, it just started looking weirder and weirder. As for the rest of the season, I remember saying I'd pay attention to future starts for that specifically, but now for the life of me I can't remember if I noticed it after that.
I think his plant location was way off that day too, but that's harder to tell on a gameday TV because of the angle. So I may be wrong, but it may be what you're noticing isn't a new thing for him.
