PITCHING WITH CONVICTION: Kikuchi building case for spot in Blue Jays rotation Via longleysunsport
“I’m obviously seeing different reactions from hitters and different approaches to the hitters that I couldn’t do last year,” Kikuchi said after his 61-pitch effort in the Jays’ 8-3 win over the Phillies.
Walker has a couple theories on Kikuchi’s poise so far, starting with the fact that he’s throwing strikes and doing so with a good rhythm, which keeps him out of his own head.Article content The reluctance of manager John Schneider to just hand over the fifth starter’s spot is likely in part due to the fact there’s no need and plenty of time to let it all play out.
