Before there were sinkers who were the top pitchers in DD?
-
I remember Sale was deceptive…..Chapman, Vida, Feller, Ryan and the knuckleballers? Sound right?
-
If my memory is right then in 2019 it was Grienke, Hamels, Blyleven, Bumgarner, Sale and Grove all of which did not have a sinker.

Sig Kersh had a sinker

Sinkers have always been busted people just didn't spam them until the last couple games. Orel Hershiser has been at the top for a long time

Vida Blue. I think in 16/17.
At least we have a couple months before the knuckle ballers get released
-
Klubers award card last year was filthy. I was terrible against him.

Pretty sure back in like 16 he didn’t have a sinker. Could be wrong though. Either way back then a sinker was basically a slower fastball similar to DeGrom’s 2-Seam now.
