Sweat Equity
Tier 1
Hard to disagree with this.
Trevor Bauer said the same thing as Pedro in that video where he (Trevor) has the ball stick to his hand. Only rosin and sweat.
as someone whose baseball career never got out of the neighborhood and have already shown woeful ignorance on matters of baseball (and all things other than breakfast foods) i have what might be two very stupid questions.
bauer shows in his little performance piece how much grip one can achieve simply with rosin and sweat and i watched the piece with pedro martinez where he said basically said the same thing.
first, is it possible to get such grip simply from rosin without a great deal of sweat (i.e. early season cold weather and post season)
second, would the amount of grip that pedro and bauer showed not be enough to get the high spin rates?
i hear these complaints, but i am confused as it seems mlb is still allowing an option

At least it wasn't the Rangers. Thanks Trevor.
Yea, they are smashing the ball.Speaking of the Giants ... Posey and Crawford must be on some new BALCO or something.

6 no-hitters(really 7) thrown in the first month and a half and now there could be 2 teams break a 60year old losing streak record pretty much at the same time.
