I think in the bullpen you can tell during your warmups, if you have a good feel for it. But anything can happen once you get into a game. Sometimes you just wind up throwing it better than ever before one day without knowing why.
Meyer and I have a bit in common because we’re both left-handed. I think it’s great that he seeks out that advice because he’s not too “cool” or too uncomfortable to ask for it.
