    Some pitches definitely do tip pitches however like 5% of players you face will be able to read it. Not really worth worrying about with a RP imo, but there are also tons of options

    It's also true that if the pitcher shakes off a sign the next pitch is a FB up, usually in the strike zone but not always.

    No so much the grip just fingers. Nate Jones hand is away from his body the entire wind up basically. You can usually see if there are two fingers or no fingers on the ball, some pitchers only have three pitches and spoting the fingers basically gives everything away.

    He does tip pitches and thats why I quit using him. I ran into a couple people online that knew this and he got rocked. Now if they hide his grip on the ball I'll use him

    When he throws a slider, the ball is concealed in his glove up until he pulls it out to deliver the pitch. When he throws a sinker, the ball is exposed the entire time. That's what I have picked up on so far.

    Heard someone say this yesterday. I want to get him to P5 but not if it's going to put me at a disadvantage.

    Just grind CPU than.

    When he comes set, you can see 2 fingers on the ball, which will mean a fastball, sinker or change. If you don’t see fingers, it’ll be slider. It’s not during his motion, it’s pretty easy to pick up.
